I am still struggling with trim and autopilot on the XP11 default 172, B58 and C90, whether or not I change the up and down values to 0 in Plane Maker (Trim and Speed).
I read on a post on the X-Plane forum thread that Hardware Trim works best. Can you please tell me what this means:
Hardware Trim
CLS2Sim decouples the trim functionality from the simulation. Consequently the simulation has no knowledge of the current trim setting of the yoke and most commercial trim controls will not work out of the box. To help circumvent this limitation, the remote control interface of CLS2Sim provides read and write access to the hardware trim data, allowing third-party software to interact with it.
in my situation? I have a separate pitch trim wheel on a Saitek autopilot panel. How precisely do I select settings for trim and autopilot to be able to use the autopilot and more importantly to disengage it without sudden change I attitude?
Thank you.
