Advice Required, Plane Climbs Immediately After Starting

Hello and Happy New Year! I’ve noticed that during certain activities, when I press start, the plane I’m flying unexpectedly begins to climb. This interferes with my ability to operate it properly, especially during landing. Can you explain why this is happening and how I can resolve the issue? Thank you!

Check the elevator trim.

Hello! Happy New Year! During some of the activities, just when I press start, the plane I’m flying suddenly starts to climb. This prevents proper operation on my part, for example during landing. Why is this happening and how do I fix the problem? Thanks!

Hi @SoldMirror8598 and welcome to the forums! :slightly_smiling_face:
I’ve moved your post above into this topic as the topic you originally posted into in General Discussion was not the best place to get assistance for this type of question.

The forums can be confusing for new users to navigate - you might want to look at this topic that explains where to post:

There is lot’s of other helpful tips in the Forum Navigation category too.

Also, please do not create duplicate posts in the forums (it is considered “Spam”).

Regarding your question: It would help if you could give the community a bit more information, like which version of the game you are using (I’m guessing 2024 from where you originally posted), which activities you were in at the time, which aircraft you were flying, and if you have any aircraft assistance settings enabled.

Thanks!

Welcome aboard. Sounds like maybe you have set pitch trim to a high positive value? Easily done depending on control mappings. Check the control mappings and also the HUD from the external camera where its readily shown for some aircraft like the Cessna 172

For example, during the flight training mode, when starting the landing, I also notice that in the bottom right corner of my screen the trim is 15% set. Additionally, when I check the pitch trim, it says 3.3°. How do I set it right from the settings menu?

Elevator Trim Up and Elevator Trim Down. If you have a trim wheel assign Elevator Trim Axis (-100 to 100%).
