Mr_sukebe Posted March 4, 2019 Share Posted March 4, 2019 The trim option on my Huey doesn’t appear to be doing very much for a few weeks now. Anyone else experiencing this?

msalama Posted March 4, 2019 Share Posted March 4, 2019 Just flew her today after a longish break, no issues, working as expected. The DCS Mi-8MTV2. The best aviational BBW experience you could ever dream of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr_sukebe Posted March 4, 2019 Author Share Posted March 4, 2019 Thanks for confirming guys. I'll go re-check my controls.

ebabil Posted March 4, 2019 Share Posted March 4, 2019 it sometimes happens. check uncheck pilot trimmer option on the option menu, turn ın and off the game while doing this FC3 | UH-1 | Mi-8 | A-10C II | F/A-18 | Ka-50 III | F-14 | F-16 | AH-64 | Mi-24 | F-5 | F-15E| F-4| Tornado Persian Gulf | Nevada | Syria | NS-430 | Supercarrier // Wishlist: CH-53 | UH-60 Youtube MS FFB2 - TM Warthog - CH Pro Pedals - Trackir 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CptTangerine Posted January 5, 2020 Share Posted January 5, 2020 My trim button doesn't seem to do anything. I got very used to using it to centre my stick in the Ka-52 and the Gazelle. I'll give the above a go too.

Quadg Posted January 5, 2020 Share Posted January 5, 2020 did you set it to "joystick with no spring or FFB"? because then the trim button does nothing. it just clicks. it turns off the whole return to centre when you press the trim button thing. how I fly.

CptTangerine Posted January 6, 2020 Share Posted January 6, 2020 Yes, I did. After reading this post, I went exploring in the options menu and found that. I haven't tried it out yet, but I'm pretty sure that's the problem. I used to have a joystick with very, very weak springs and I set the trimmer to this. I now have a Warthog which has a wrist-crushing spring and a little trimming would be nice again. I'm also assuming that it's why my autopilot doesn't work as well. I had a hairy moment in the campaign where my co-pilot allegedly took over the controls and then I went careening all over the sky for a moment before I realised that it wasn't happening.

Holton181 Posted January 6, 2020 Share Posted January 6, 2020 I'm also assuming that it's why my autopilot doesn't work as well. Actually it should. I very seldom use the "autopilot" feature, but when I have it does work for me and I have used the "joystick with no spring or FFB" for a long time. They should be unrelated, unless something changed recently.

I now have a Warthog which has a wrist-crushing spring and a little trimming would be nice again. that warthog spring is the reason I fly no springs :) I took it out rather than use the trim abstraction. in the UN campaign I think you still need to turn the autopilot on with the hotkey. when the commander says he will take over and you can tune the radio. I don't remember it happening automatically. but it has been a while. My Rig: AM5 7950X, 32GB DDR5 6000, M2 SSD, EVGA 1080 Superclocked, Warthog Throttle and Stick, MFG Crosswinds, Oculus Rift.

CptTangerine Posted January 6, 2020 Share Posted January 6, 2020 You're right. Autopilot still does nothing. I don't feel the need to use it very often but it would be useful for when I'm tuning the ADF - I do have a co-pilot so it's not a total cheat. It doesn't seem to do anything anyway. I checked that the "Autopilot Availability" box was ticked and it was. I can live without it but, as I say, it would be useful to have on occasion.

Pooter03 Posted January 8, 2020 Share Posted January 8, 2020 I've been flying the Huey fairly regularly recently and autopilot works for me no problems. I use it mostly when tuning the radios or checking the mission briefing (in multiplayer) to look up radio freqs and what not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dFlow Posted January 28, 2020 Share Posted January 28, 2020 If this topic is still open: I have the same issue with the non - functioning trimmer. Haven't changed any setting in this helo but since a couple of weeks I cannot trim it. Trimmer setting in specials menu is 'default'... Any ideas?

Waldemard Posted February 6, 2020 Share Posted February 6, 2020 (edited) Same problem here, I can clearly see the button being pushed but nothing happens...:cry: So yeah if anybody got a tips !

Tanuki44 Posted February 11, 2020 Share Posted February 11, 2020 For me, with a stick without spring, the trim is functional, I set the trimmer mode to 'default'. I press the 'trim' button, release it and quickly bring the stick back to a position near to the 'center'. The cyclic position remains at its position (when the button is pressed). I used a another button to reset the trim. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CptTangerine Posted February 12, 2020 Share Posted February 12, 2020 It's still working for me. I have got out of the habit of resetting the trim as it makes things so unpredictable. I tend to just keep re-trimming as I go.
