A ticket on the TDS discord server or SWS?

SWS - It'll allow the unit to load (won't fix the reflections at the moment)

I've not fully tested anything at the moment due to work.

I think you may have already answered my rudder trim question with that explanation thanks.

Prop aircraft are so word not allowed stupid ain't it?  My beloved jet airliners only start playing being bad boys after engine failure, and even so with the modern laws of the FBW not even that much, unless other systems go wonky 🙂

That's why I stopped in the gliders and the others fly only as a PAX or a simmer 🙂

And there are even guys who feel safe flying choppers....

Horizontal stabiliser , that’s the pitch trim, not strictly the elevator no but certainly not the rudder 😄

I’ll get cracking on that manual 😂

you are right.

"rudder trim operation is controlled by a switch located on the Engine Power Control Lever."

let us know if SWS have implemented it correctly (I don't own it yet) . must be hard to find in the sim. probably easier in VR.

You’ve found it ! Good man.

Sadly I’ve now retired to the pub for my tea. Strictly a non alcoholic ginger beer so I’ll be back airborne once I get home.

Is there an easier way to operate the rudder trim in the sim? That looks like it could be a nightmare click spot to reach?

simply assign a joystick button in Control settings. there was a similar discussion earlier re. Carenado's PC-12

Set your keybinds for Control Trimming Surfaces
Rudder trim right
Rudder trim left

This could be the most disappointing launch day for me since the Twotter. I'm pretty sure it will be rectified relatively soon, but I had been really looking forward to this one.

Very interesting aircraft. But there are some bug. For one I can move rudder trim using throttle click spot. Rudder trim indicator is jerking but not moving

Yeah...this really isn't it. 

Absolutely uncontrollable on the ground, starting at about 60 KIAS on takeoff roll and immediately after landing. Just absolutely no directional control using my rudder pedals.

Takes a humongous amount of rudder deflection to keep the slip indicator centered.

TDS GTNXi not showing up.

No lateral FMA indications other than "ROL".

HSI needles going haywire, bouncing all over the place.

Takes an almost Fenix-like toll on FPS on my end.

There are some initial teething issues but they're quite receptive to the items.  They already issued a TDS hotfix that is working.  I have high confidence that SWS will address everything!

As for rudder input yeah imo something is going on.  For departure don't forget YD engaged as that helps with some of the heavy rudder input.  But I'm still having an issue in level flight where the ball indicates I'm in a slip.
