WW1 Trim

[Sandman3838]

Ok its now time for a silly question.   😁

 

Except for the two with the Altitude throttle these WW1 Aircraft didn't have anything like Trim, Flaps or Stabilizers that was later in WW2, correct.  WW1 it was just Pitch, Roll, Yaw.

 

I'm interested in flying -

Some planes like Se5 , Sopwith Triplane and two more  do have pitch stabilizer.

Almost miss my old CH HOTAS, the flightstick had those Pitch\Aileron trim wheels you could use to "cheat" trim the WWI planes...

The SE5a, Sopwith Triplane, Sopwith Snipe, Bristol F2b (both engine variants), RE-8, and the DH-4 all have stabilizer. I don't remember for sure if the Sopwith Pup and Sopwith 1-1/2 strutter have it or not. The SPADs, Nieuports, Sopwith Camel and Dolphin, Handley Page, DH-2, and all the German planes do not have any trim or stabilizer adjustment. The Breguet has a sort-of trim. It adjusts a bungee cord that changes the force felt on the stick, but doesn't change the actual deflection of the elevator or horizontal stabilizer. I don't know if this acts like trim for a normal spring-centered joystick, since I use a FFB stick from VPForce.

The Strutter also has an airbrake that is useful for landing.
