Elevator trim adjustment?

Featured Replies

I have a plane that is driving me crazy, no matter how gentle I am with the trim it is waaaaay too sensitive.I found the following section in the aircraft.cfg and was wondering if anyone knows if this is adjustable, and if so which way to go with the numbers to de-sensitize the trim. Or is this just an On/Off choice?TIA[flight_tuning]cruise_lift_scalar = 1.0parasite_drag_scalar = 1.0induced_drag_scalar = 1.0elevator_effectiveness = 1.0aileron_effectiveness = 1.0rudder_effectiveness = 1.0pitch_stability = 1.0roll_stability = 1.0yaw_stability = 1.0elevator_trim_effectiveness = 1.0aileron_trim_effectiveness = 1.0rudder_trim_effectiveness = 1.0
