Daidalos Team's Room -QUESTIONS AND REQUESTS ONLY on IL2 Authorized Addons

[janpitor]

You dont get my point...if i have sliding trim, I can move it quickly to an approximately trimmed position, because I know how much force I have on the stick and I´m used to the trimming system. Here in il2 if you dont have axis for trim, it takes longer time to hold the button. maybe it would be better to have increments...like I could estimate I will need five presses of a button. That would be also realistic and quicker

Also, the rate at which trim can be applied is deliberately limited in the sim, as in early versions, people were using 'trim on a slider' to enhance manouverability. Yes, out-of-trim flight makes dogfighting difficult, but everyone has the same problems...
