Same feels way to sensitive

Yes, but in my case I don’t think the sensitivity is the problem per se, but the fact that it’s too easy to accidentally activate pitch and roll trim simultaneously. I had to adjust the angle at which I mounted my grip in order to reduce the occurrence of this happening, and it’s never been an issue in other aircraft.

I keep overshooting as well, never get it perfectly trimmed out unless I let the autopilot do it.

Sounds like, yes, but autopilot looks like came right from Flaming Cliffs - disbalanced and unable to use!

Hello!

Left/Right trim hat commands are way too over sensitive. It is nearly impossible to trim it for straight flight. Pitch trim feels better, it seems not that extremly sensitive.

Same problem, the pitch trim is alright, but aileron trim I just keep waggling from left to right and back, I can never get it trimmed out. What does help is pressing the “trim reset” button just before Take off and then just shooting and dropping everything in pairs so the aileron trim stays centered.  (Wasnt it Soviet doctrine anyways to always fire in pairs?)  Would be nice if the trim was a little bit less sensitive though. Apart from that, I love flying the Mig-29, great module!!!

Thank you for the track, the team will check and tweak if necessary.

Yeah at the moment is just impossible to (fine) trim the MiG….

Agreed. During night circle pattern 4 hat trim is useless, aircraft too unstable when triming.

I wonder if the trim button in the original jet is digital like in the module or rather analog. In one original, easy to find flight manual (would attach, but not sure if there’s a copyright or not) there is a side and top view of the stick on page 1-65 figure 1-30 which shows a thin stick-like attachement which may indicate an analog function. If that’s the case, an option to bind that button to an analog axis might be a solution. 

Anyone here who has an original MiG-29 in the backyard and could take a quick look?
