FAE_Cazador Posted December 16, 2019 Posted December 16, 2019 (edited) Sorry if this has been already answered but, does Fw190 pitch and rudder trims work? I have them working in Mustang and Ju.88 both with rotary axis of my X52 joy. Up/Down mobile stabilizer also work in Me-109, assigned to a rotary axis. But they don't in Fw-190. Button assignments don't work either (RCTRL+Arrow Up/Down for pitch trim, and LCTRL+Z/X for rudder trim). Being Fw-190 a more advanced airplane than 109, a "full electric" plane as it was, I thought she would have such controls. Thanks in advance Edited December 16, 2019 by FAE_Cazador
Yogiflight Posted December 16, 2019 Posted December 16, 2019 (edited) There is a key assignement for the FW 190 only 'FW 190vertical stabilizer'. It only works on buttons, like IRL. No rudder trim for the Focke Wulf. EDIT: Of course it is horizontal stabilizer not vertical Edited December 17, 2019 by Yogiflight 1
Sokol1 Posted December 16, 2019 Posted December 16, 2019 (edited) Some WW2 planes have (IRL) analog trim devices, e.g. a Wheel. Some have electric system, e.g. Fw 190, Me 262, press two buttons for up and down respectively or Pe-2 a MON-OFF-MON switch. Why you can't use one system for all and need make two assignments, but can use the same keys/buttons for both. Edited December 16, 2019 by Sokol1
Jade_Monkey Posted December 17, 2019 Posted December 17, 2019 The plane didn't have rudder trim. It has a vertical stabilizer trim, look for a different set of keys to map (you can use the same you use for pitch trim).

It has a moveable horizontal stab, it does not have vertical stabilizer trim as the 190 didn't need re-trimming in flight. By default the horizontal stab is assigned to the Rshift + up/down arrow keys.

FAE_Cazador Posted December 18, 2019 Author Posted December 18, 2019 Thank you all, then it is clear: - FW-190 has no rudder trim, neither IRL nor here in IL-2 GB - FW-190 trims up and down moving the whole horizontal stabilizer by buttons RShift+up/down arrows - FW-190 trimming up and down cannot be made by rotary axis. So I keep rotaries axis to trim other planes like Bf-109 horizontal stabilizer, Mustang, and Ju-88 rudder and pìtch trims, etc. 1
