How the Heck Do We Use Trim Controls?

[Doktorwzzerd]

Two new threads in 20 mins? Am I crazy? But seriously...

Does anyone really get how to use the trim control well? I can see in the control scheme on Sim that it is mapped to A, but I can't tell if it is having any effect. I even looked up trim control on Wikipedia to get a better understanding of what it might do, but I feel lost. Can anyone shed some light? Has anyone gotten a good handle on using trim in BoP?

Move the sticks to where they need to be to keep the plane level, then press A. For example, to cancel out the torque effects of the engine press the rudder stick slightly to the right until it stops the plane rolling and press A. The game will keep the rudder in that position even after you release the stick. Same with elevator. Most planes of that era didn't have aileron trim. Hoped that helped.

yeah that does help, thanks!
