PMDG 747 QOTSII module version 1.1 trim function

[Stefan01 6]

enclosed my trim function. I think it shows better the value of the trim setting.

feel free to use it in your user.lua.
Happy Landings Stefan Liebe

function B747_Elevator_Trim_show ()

    ElevVal = ipc.readUW(0x0BC2)
    if ElevVal >= 49000 then
    ElevVal = (ElevVal - 65487)
    end

ElevTrimVar = (ElevVal*0.00074+3)
    DspShow("Elev", string.format("%2.1f", ElevTrimVar))

end

function B747_Elevator_Trim_up ()

    ipc.control(65615)
    B747_Elevator_Trim_show ()
end

function B747_Elevator_Trim_dn ()

    ipc.control(65607)
    B747_Elevator_Trim_show ()
end

function B747_Elevator_Trim_upfast ()

    i = 0
    while i <= 4 do
    ipc.control(65615)
    i = i + 1
    end
    B747_Elevator_Trim_show ()
end

function B747_Elevator_Trim_dnfast ()

    i = 0
    while i <= 4 do
