I can't seem to get the trims programed correctly on any of my hardware devices and it's driving me crazy!!I use a Saitek X52 in combination with a Nostromo N52 keypad. I have tried programing the rotaries on the X52 as bands with no luck. I've programed the trims as macro keystrokes on the N52 with no luck either. Well, that's not entirely true they move sometimes and don't others totally unreliable and inconsistent. I can program the elevator trim as an axis via FSX and it works great except it is way to sensative on the slider, the null zone does not reduce this sensitivity. FSX Programed a lot of controls to perform as axes but I cant believe they left out aileron and Rudder trim in the choices!The only way I seem to be able to get consistent results is using the keyboard; yuck!Please help!Blaze

Well, not much intrest in this thread so I take it that nobody else seems to be having a problem? I did manage to program the elevator trim to the large rotary knob on my throttle via FSX's interface. It's much easier to control than using the slider. I left the trims for aileron and rudder on my N52 keypad, fortunatly the Learjet I like to fly usually does not require much trim.I'm still sort of baffled as to why I can't get the macro to take hold in a positive manner. My last effort will be to change the keyboard command in FSX to a single keypress then map that to the N52 as a macro.If anyone finds a way to make it so then please share it with me.Thanks,Blaze

I'm interested in doing the same thing. I'm using FS9 though. I want to be able to use the rotary controls to smoothly adjust the trim. I'm also trying to figure out how to assign reverse thrust and afterburner to the 0% and 100% throttle settings. It should be easy with the profile editor using bands, but I want the bands so narrow, i.e. 99%-100% for afterburner and 1%-0% for reverse thrust, that I am unable to select them with the mouse. Is there a text editor for the profile files?ThanksSpigi
