Elev trim problems

Featured Replies

Hi all

This is a bit of a duplicate post as I've asked this question on the Pmdg section ,but I've posted here as it might be an fsx thing

I am having trouble getting my elevator trim nose down to go past the green band If I then use a mouse on the trim wheel I can get the full nose down trim deflection,this only seems to happen on my pmdg 737 and 777 aircraft.The elevator nose up works fine but nose down seems to be a problem.

I have a registered copy of fsuipc which I've setup ok but this problem seems evident weather I use the keyboard option for elev trim or fsuipc.

I've tried them individually and together always with the same result.

I'm fairly certain everything is ok as I also have the A2A 172 setup to use the same button and on this I get full elev trim down deflection

All my aircraft are setup in fsuipc with type specific so I don't think I've any duplicate controls set in there

Can anyone shed any light as to why this might be happening

Hi Jim

Yes I've had a look ,might have missed something, but as it sort of works its hard to get a definitive answer

In the a2a Cessna I get full nose down trim ,but in the pmdg aircraft I've tried, I only get it as far as the top of the green band, as I said in original post this may be a pmdg thing and nothing is wrong at all, but was posting on here as well in case other Saitek /pmdg users have the same problem or if its me and I need to find a solution.

at the end of the day its not the end of the world as you normally set and forget most of the time just wondered if it was a problem or not
