CLS2Sim Manual Mistake?

[Ray Price]

I’m trying to get software trim working properly. In the manual it says…

Software Trim
Software trim reads the trim position from the simulation and button presses mapped to “Trim – …” actions will be transmitted to the simulation. In MSFX, to achieve realistic trim behaviour, you need to edit the “aircraft.cfg” file of the plane you will be flying. Search for the setting “elevator_trim_limit” and set it to “0.1”. Be careful not to enter any spaces, so that the line will read exactly “elevator_trim_limit=0.1”. Open CLS2Sim, go to the setup tab and gradually increase the trim “Movement %” setting until the yoke movement is satisfactory.

But there is no such setting in the aircraft.cfg, only in the flight_model.cfg. I changed in the flight_model.cfg but it makes absolutely NO different to the elevator trim when looking at the external view of the aircraft. It continues to move to the same max. What am I doing wrong here, and why is the manual referencing something that doesn’t exist?
