I use the Bravo trimwheel with a keyassignment (for the trim, is that PG Up/ PG Down maybe?). It works pretty good that way for me, not oversensitive.
I fly VR, I just have to be mindful when trimming

Just the opposite for me

Same here, the trim wheel feels to be about 10% as sensitive as the electric trim. Iâm wondering if he has it bound differently?

I use electric for gross adjustment and trim wheel for fine adjustment.

i use trim from buttons and this is too sensitive. not use cockpit wheel, axis, anything like that. only way to work itâs properly itâs use autopilot vs up/dwn⊠or may be use virtual cockpit trim i donât sure itâs even present in model:) doesnât fly too much. but from buttons without autopilot itâs need to be corrected. sure we can use different engine power with it and found level stabilize position. but increment of single press trim up/down triggers - is broken.
Yep, Iâm also having the same issue with the heading bug. I play on xbox cloud so I wonder if its an issue with the cloud version?
When I take off at around 75 knots, one side of the plane starts to go off the ground, is there a way Is there a way I can counter it?
Are you correcting for crosswind, and the downwind wing is lifting first?
I think so
Ok. Then please describe what you are doing while you are taking off in a crosswind?
Or: to check from it from another point of view: does this problem also occur when you set the weather to âClear Skiesâ (then thereâs basically no wind)?
It happens as well in good weather
If you havenât tested this, try taking off with flaps up, this is in the normal procedures for takeoffs.

Wow, I just learned something new for this plane! Checked the manual and youâre totally right. I always took off with 1 notch of flaps. Thx!

There arenât many GA planes that call for flaps on takeoff under normal field conditions, despite the default settings in MSFS. Short field takeoffs are another story. One of those few planes is the Piaggio P.149. Other than that plane, I canât think of any others, not that means anything.
In any event, itâs always a good idea to check with the real POH procedures and checklists when using MSFS. The default settings are not always correct.

Wish we could get Asobo/MS to save all settings on exit so we could pickup where we leave off.

Because there are so many different types of airfield they generally give you a choice rather than a specific instruction. The 152 and 172 are exampes of this and list 0 to 10 for normal operations.

I just checked the POH for the 152 I used to fly, and, just like I remember, Normal Climb out, flaps up, Short Field Takeoff, Flaps 10 degrees. Short field is not technically normal operations. Itâs short field takeoff. MSFS defaults to one notch of flaps. Most people arenât taking off from short fields. When you want to use short field procedures, sure, you can do it anywhere. If for some reason you like using a notch of flaps, nothing wrong with that, either. You are the PIC after all. The normal procedures, however, say flaps up. So the default should be flaps up. Itâs always bugged me that itâs choosing for me, so, I change it in the cfg file. #justsayin
But, my real point is, you should always check the POH. Even in MSFS. If you arenât, well, if youâre thinking itâs acting funny, it may well be you missed a procedure somewhere.

Yes, I would love this. Some planes have it, but it would be great to be built in as default.

Agreed the POH is the place to refer.
The 152 POH I have gives you a choice for a normal take-off. It does not state 0 only. I agree though most of the time we would use 0. When loading on the runway I suspect they donât check where they are and therefore assume worse case and use 10 deg. I generally never notice this because I almost always start cold & dark.
