razorseal Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 I'm trying to trim my plane, and it just won't 'level out' I'm in a steady non-accelerated flight and I want to trim her out. I start using the trim hat and nothing happens! (to verify I can see them moving on the joystick ingame) I will hold nose down for good 10 seconds, and she just won't trim.... is there a step I'm missing? I doubt it :helpsmilie: All the real planes I've flown trimming is one of the easier things. I would say this trim is similar to a SR-20 that I flew, and it was rather easy. just move the hat, and she trimmed! not this thing! :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harzach Posted July 22, 2012 Share Posted July 22, 2012 Let's start with the obvious - is your trim hat mapped to the trim functions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Purg Posted July 22, 2012 Share Posted July 22, 2012 I had exactly the same problem. I'm using G25 pedals as my rudder which the game interpreted as having Force Feedback capabilities. When I turned it FF off, I was able to trim the aircraft. Ninja'd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will try that now Let's start with the obvious - is your trim hat mapped to the trim functions? if I see the trim hat moving in the ingame joystick, yes, they are mapped properly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Antorian Posted July 22, 2012 Share Posted July 22, 2012 Disable Force-Feedback and try it again. I had this problem for a while. If your Force-Feedback is turned on when you don't have a Force-Feedback joystick, you won't be able to trim.

Hamblue Posted July 22, 2012 Share Posted July 22, 2012 When I first started my trim hat was somehow set to ctrl and hat after setting up. I re-mapped and all was fine.

I shut it off, and now I'm able to trim :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Posted July 22, 2012 Share Posted July 22, 2012 If you have G940 with FF, putting a tape over the grip sensor will fix trim the problem.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
