Trim Wheel on Honeycomb Throttle Quadrant

Featured Replies

New member here.  Don't know if this is the correct forum but I am new to MSFS 2020 using the Honeycomb Yoke and Throttle Quadrant and Thrustmaster TPR pedals.  My research before buying suggested that these flight control devices are the "best on the market" and provide the "most realism".   In my experience the default setting just are not realistic and very twitchy.  I am a RL Cessna 172 pilot and what I am experiencing is no way close to actual flight control inputs.  LOL, I am all over the runway and sky.  I suspect this is me and MSFS 2020.  Does anyone have any recommendations on the sensitivity and realistic settings?

Welcome to Avsim.

Yes, you were in the wrong forum. You posted in the Tips and Tricks section which isn’t for support. I moved your post to the main forum.

It is you and it is MSFS. The stock sensitivity settings in MSFS are atrocious. You need to go in and adjust them to your liking and most likely adjust for each different plane you fly.

Hey, Taxman1843. Welcome to the forums. I don't have a trim wheel yet for the sim. I'm awaiting the arrival of the Honeycomb Bravo to figure out how best to set up range and sensitivities. Like CaptainNick says above, it is likely that you may need to adjust those for different planes in the sim though, because just as in real life trim movements vary by model. As you know a C172 can easily take several rolls of trim to get where you want it, where a Beech Bonanza or Baron take very small adjustments to achieve the same effect.
