Ability to pre-set both adjustable and fixed trim

Some aircraft have terrible fixed trim balance, some less so than others. The control scheme in il-2 also doesn't offer a way to adjust for stick drift either (yes I know this can be calibrated) and is one of IL-2's major shortcomings.

Having the ability to change the default trim would greatly help some the ability to fly some aircraft in the game.

 

For example, the Typhoon mk 1b has a stronger tendency to roll to the right than the tempest, even while cruising at moderate speeds.

I haven't touched the ju-87D/G-3 since I came back to IL-2 after ~6 years, but I do remember it had one of the worst default trims where it was either you flew it sideways or it would constantly roll... Ironically, I've actually flown a cessna 172 in real life that had this exact same issue (it even had adjustable rudder trim) and it was infuriating enough that I basically told the flight school to either fix it or I wouldn't fly that exact aircraft ever again, and I've only made such a request twice in my life (after another 172 that had a dangerously high stall speed of 55 knots, with my WT experience ironically saving my life that day).

 

Anyway, a feature to preset default trim would be nice, that is all.
