Desktop Aviator Trim Panel

I have 2 rudders in MSFS. The foot pedals are setup and calibrated normally. The other rudder axis is tied to a lever that moves from left to a center detent, or to the right of center and stays put right there exactly to where you move the lever.

Just like elevator trim wheel game controllers are usually a second elevator axis (instead of an elevator trim key command). But it's used as an elevator trim. Wheel remains to where you turn it, does not recenter.

I think it's the best way to do trims that are quick and easy to set precisely, and work the best.

I mounted mine in a very heavy cardboard box with five1 pound flat lead ingots velcroed inside the box bottom to hold the 'rack' stable. I think this works better than a dedicated metal rack on a desktop, and far cheaper. The box is the one my ButtKicker Playseat Edition came in, very thick cardboard and just the right size.

I notice it is only a single turn pot rather than multi-turn. Does it still give you reasonably fine trim control ?
