    737 Trim

    Hi

    My default fsx 737 trim is way over to the right and nothing seems to centre it. Any suggestions would be appreciated

    Just checking, but did you try Numberpad 5?

    No Problem. I can't remember if NumLock needs to be on of off. But if your views change when you press the numpad 5, then change the state of your NumLock key. LOL

    Num 5 centres it for about 20 secs and then it flips back...............

    I bet you have a UNWANTED joystick button commanding the trim....check through all your controller buttons in FSX

    Re: 737 Trim

    Thanks for that......disconnecting my yoke solves the problem. Of course I will need the yoke however.........I have a nose down/up trim switch and that shows the + and - changes in the EICAS but does nothing to sort the problem. Do I need to configure the trim switch and if so how?

    Regards
