Trim too sensitive with new computer

Featured Replies

I just set up my new computer and it is considerably faster than what I have been using (P4 3.6ghz, Radeon 800XT PE, 1024MB). I've always used the rocker switch on my PFC yoke for elevator trim with the "repeat" feature halfway up in the "controls/assignments". I find with the faster computer, though, that the switch is way too sensitive. It is almost impossible to use without doing away with "repeat" but then I have to click the switch over and over, which doesn't work well. Is there a way to slow it down, perhaps using FSUIPC? Thanks!David

Hi,A possible solution might be to experiment with the 'elevator_trim_effectiveness=1.0' setting in the {flight tuning} section each aircraft.cfg

I believe that there is a way to slow that down. Look in your Options > Assignments screen and find the section for rudder trim up and rudder trim down. Look way over by the right-hand margin and I think that there is a slider that controls the repeat action. I've always set it to max and my config entries for trim look like this:BUTTON_DOWN_EVENT_10=ELEV_TRIM_DNBUTTON_DOWN_REPEAT_10=1BUTTON_DOWN_EVENT_11=ELEV_TRIM_UPBUTTON_DOWN_REPEAT_11=1I think that the slider changes the BUTTON_DOWN_REPEAT value to a number other than 1. Check it out. R-
