Having problems trimming planes (mainly nose trim)

Are you keeping an eye on slip?

Stupid question but what's slip?

Also, as I'm not up to speed on the terminology used in this sim (or real world flying) can I take it you mean trim the nose so it's slightly climbing and then back off the power?


I tried the keyboard the other day, I admit I forgot I could use the keyboard, and it did provide slightly better adjustment.

It would be nice to get the plane so I don't keep porpoising because I'm constantly trimming it up or down, especially seeing as the AI always seem to be able to fly straight and level, so I'd like to know if there is anyway to get accurate trim on a fighter without having to buy a bespoke trim control or DIY it.


@Woke up dead - do you mean the Level Autopilot function? I rarely use bombers anyway so that's not much use to me, unless it works in fighters, but I don't want autopilot having control of a plane that wouldn't have had autopilot in the first place.

I guess I'm just stuck porpoising all over the place.
