Yes, no visible elevator/rudder/aileron (trim) movement for 5 clicks.
I, too, have the impression that a single click has some effect, but I, too, find that I go way over or way under with the last click.
Nevertheless, I'm a bit perplexed, for Devicelink reports trim settings only with the first decimals via UDPSpeed. So what you see is 0,0,0,0,0;0.1,0.1,0.1,0.1,0,1;0.2,0.2,0.2,0.2, etc.
In theory, one click should have a value of 0.02, but it's unclear whether only it's display is truncated, or the higher precision value is roughly neglected/rounded up (this latter would explain the 'way over or way under' experience and the precision issues).
Anyway, it would be great if TD could clarify this point.
