Trim unwanted - range crazy
-
Hello,
i am wondering if anyone else is facing what is happening to me after last update.when we fly on line, after a bit my airplane goes nose up; double checking on the left panel, the trim is full scale nose up, no chances to get it down; at the same time the left mfd is crazy with the cursor management, it simply goes all way down and no way to recover.
Can you point me to a solution?
No problem till this last update.
Thanks in advance,

HOTAS/Keystrokes conflicts (?)

This can also happen if you have your trim controls shifted - make sure you release the trim control first, then the PINKY SHIFT - otherwise the trim inputs will stay “on”.
-
thank you both, this is not apparently the solution….
no hotas conflicts, no pinky issues.
What is strange is that IT IS HAPPENING ONLY during online flights… and, so far, apparently ONLY on the Balkans theatre… -
Can I suggest to place TRIM/AP DISC on DISC when you encounter such trim problem? It will tell you if your problem comes from the stick and in that case use the manual knobs to zeroize it. Cursor going down and trim going up (wich often is mappen on the down way of a hat) led to think to a conflict where some button take control of both the callbacks. If happen only online maybe is related to a function used only in mp, as for example the COMM switch.

Hey Vandroy, good tip, i’ll look into it and keep you posted. Thanks a lot
BTW: 155 for ever….

Hello everybody,
just installed the 4.35 and experienced the same trim issue, so i assume it might be some callback related to mp flights like comm switch as suggested. I’ll go for more tests.One more problem came out and i do not know if it’s only mine. During flight, pressing “0” to use ext view, i am not able any longer to move the view around the plane. 4.34 was set tu use hat switch of Joy calling NKPD 2,4,6,8 for rotating views, i cheked 4.35 keyfile and seen it calls shift 2,4,6,8, but changing the callbacks does not help. Also, if i use my keyboard with either 4.34 and 4.35 callbacks, i have no effect on moving external views. Any idea?

I used to have Trim Reset mapped to a key on my HOTAS. It is Alt+Enter by default on the keyboard, that will reset any trim you may have made.

Go to setup -> controllers -> advanced and uncheck “Enable external mouselook”.

You are the one TobiasA! that fixed the problem. Thank you very much.
Any idea on how i can solve the trim issue BTW? have you changed the callback ALT ENTER to use the trim reset?

Can you map trim directly? I have it mapped with DirectX, no macros or stuff and it works fine. On my Saitek X52, I had “stuck” keys with specific macros.

Hmm… If it only happened online, maybe it does interfere with Comm switch up/down or one of the modifiers for the comm switch + the keys for trim or vice versa?
