Default Trim button on Aviator?

I'm playing sim and I cant find the trim button on the aviator, can anybody help me out?
Also I'm a little confused as to some of the button mapping from gamepad to aviator so if anyone could post a full list of the functions that'd be fantastic!
Otherwise, awesome game, hooked already!

If you unlock the pairing on the throttle - it would be ideal if flaps could be controlled dynamically vs presets. However - if there's only in flight spawning vs take off and landing this eliminates the need.

I have an aviator and the only gripe I really have is the grip of the stick....its too smooth, after playing the demo vigoriously for an hour my hand is a little sweaty and it slips on the stick....I think I am going to modify the stick and make it grippier because all of the twisting and turning with the rudders gets tedious with the slipping.

Also, the look stick is way to sensitive...is there anyway to turn down the sensitivity of the look stick?

All in all its an excellent stick, not as good as my full CH setup with track ir 4 for the computer, but all of that cost me well over $450...the aviator is a huge bargain for the $40!!

I agree bastid.
Like my X52, it's just a little too loose. Comes from using a light little spring down there for resistence. wish we had a good force feedback stick. It would be nice if the rest for the bottom of your hand could be raised like on the X52, or it it was molded. I'd like the right stick and right shoulder buttons moved to the left as well so you can reach them easier without having to take your hand off the stick. They should be on the left side of the base, not facing you. Put out a lefty-friendly version, or the ability to move the buttons as a control panel to the other side.

Anyone care to share blue and red buttons on aviator stick "what they actually do" in SIM mode because they seem to have no effect...

I've been considering buying handlebar grip for a BMX bicycle and stuffing it onto the handle so it's nice and spongy and grippy.
