El_Roto Posted November 17, 2010 Posted November 17, 2010 Flying Beta 2 training missions, I don't seem to be getting any trim response from my Warthog's coolie hat. What am I doing wrong? :joystick: [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] 257th Fighting Falcons/First VFW-25th Virtual Fighter Squadron Specs: Win7 HP 64 bit, i7-960 @ 3.2GHz, 12GB DDR3 RAM @ 1333MHz, Intel-based Alienware mobo, 256GB Samsung SSD, WD 1.0TB HD, Samsung LCD monitor @ 1920x1200, TM Warthog, SIMPED vario F-16 rudders w/brakes, R.A.T. 7 mouse, 2xMimo 7" LCDs, 2xTM Cougar MFDs, and TrackIR4 w/Pro Clip. Wife who tolerates it. Cat who thinks she can interrupt at ANY time. :doh:

Frederf Posted November 17, 2010 Posted November 17, 2010 Coolie changes the SOI/MFCDs generally. The trim hat controls trim. 1
effte Posted November 17, 2010 Posted November 17, 2010 Coolie changes the SOI/MFCDs generally. The trim hat controls trim. D'oh! Brainfart - of course the "coolie" is the throttle hat and nothing else in DCS. Thanks for setting me straight. ----- Introduction to UTM/MGRS - Trying to get your head around what trim is, how it works and how to use it? - DCS helos vs the real world.
El_Roto Posted November 17, 2010 Author Posted November 17, 2010 OK, so I used the wrong term. My TRIM switch doesn't control the a/c's trim.

kylania Posted November 17, 2010 Posted November 17, 2010 By default the "trim" hat switch on the stick controls view. LCtrl+TrimHat controls actual "trim". You also have to have the default profiles loaded in game for any of it to work. :) [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Christmas Cheer - A Landing Practice Mission : Beta Paint Schemes : HOTAS Keyboard Map : Bingo Fuel - A DCS A-10C Movie
effte Posted November 17, 2010 Posted November 17, 2010 OK, so I used the wrong term. My TRIM switch doesn't control the a/c's trim. Haha, allright then. I'm in good company and understood through misreading. Cheers mate! Too bad I edited my original post. :P It said something along the lines of the default mapping being CTRL+hat for trimming, and unmodified moving the view. Check control configuration, remove the pesky CTRL modifiers, and Bob's your uncle. 1 ----- Introduction to UTM/MGRS - Trying to get your head around what trim is, how it works and how to use it? - DCS helos vs the real world.
