How to save settings in MSFS?

Featured Replies

I’d like to be able to set my elevator TRIM at 0% and when I start up again tomorrow, see my trim setting at 0%. This is just one setting I would like to make and SAVE!  I can’t seem to see a way to do that in MSFS. I would also like to see Live Weather active when I start the sim, rather than having to set it manually.  
I have tried to research an answer to this query but I haven’t found an answer that is specific to this kind of save procedure. 
I use both P3d and MSFS daily, but have found myself starting to get more VFR flying in lately. This is where MSFS excels in my opinion.

Do you save it under another name? I don't think you can save the default profile, according to live weather, if you start a flight from the globe with live weather the sim will save it for the next flight.

Do you have this issue with a specific aircraft?
You cannot save these settings globally. I am pretty sure though that most default aircraft have the trim set to neutral anyway. Some aircraft have the option to save the aircraft state and this might lead to the trim being what it was when you last flew the aircraft. often this is an option, meaning you can turn of to save the state of the aircraft.

As the previous poster mentioned, This is actually saved by the sim!
If you select live weather before starting the flight that will be the default setting from then on.

Thanks for the information.  I will set the live weather on the map screen today.  As for the trim setting, etc., I will just set that to zero before my flight.
