    Re: Motorized FDS trim wheel - detect manual pitch trim mode

    thanks a lot - just updated to the latest version and FDS trim wheel is working now during flight as expected.
    I have only one further question:
    After touchdown you will set -9999 to the offset 73AE and therefore I set also the trimwheel into manual mode. But this will avoid, that your software will set trim to "0" and so the trimwheel doesn't rolls back to "0" quiet after touchdown.

    So if the trim-value will be "3" during touchdown - the value will remain in your software also because the trim wheel will write the current position with "3" to offset 78E9 at that moment the driver will receive the -9999.

    Should I avoid update to offset 78E9 of trim position for a specific time after touchdown?

    Thanks in advance!

    Robert

    Edit: it seems that you will switch to manuel trim mode before touchdown - I will receive -9999 a few seconds before touchdown.

    The trim resest is a bit broken for now, I need to work on it.

    Re: Motorized FDS trim wheel - detect manual pitch trim mode

    No problem, I will implement a little workaround in my driver which will set the trim to zero after touchdown without regard to the -9999 info from the 78E9 offset....

    Thanks for support!
