SThanks!
A“Use FFB trim implementation” should be ticked in. Reckon that’s your problem right there
AThough “Spring” looks like it might cause some issues since you’ve set pitch to just 1% and have it override game ffb. I wouldn’t say that I’m certain of it, but I imagine that it has the potential for causing issues.
Try unticking all “Sticky”, tick “Use FFB trim implementation” and see what happens re FFB trim, so we might figure out if that’s on the correct path

WYou need to uncheck "sticky". That will override any effects the game sends.
SAs I mentioned, it shows off now since it is just off, but I have set it to on as it should be
SThe "spring" sticky?
WYes, disable that.
SThanks.....Will do!
ALso, meant to ask....should I use the VP Hardwre Force trim? Or just use the DCS settings and leave VP force Trim off and map the game trim controls as normal?

Sdang this software is powerful!

A“Sticky” means that your software settings will override in game FFB. In DCS, “Spring” is the only effect that’s implemented though AFAIK
WYes, spring and some periodic shake/rumble effects
AAlso - spring shouldn’t be at 0% either? /cc @walmis?
WOh yes, def should not be zero
SYup, understood that from all the docs and chats, never thought it would override teh trim in that way though
Ssaturation?
AHe’s talking about the screenshot I linked — put all those sliders at 100%
AOnly tune them down if you find a game is applying too much effects
A
Sahh, the main slider, I see
Was not going to use spring at all until I found a convo with walmis and jager about center sensitivity and spring

SI am going to drop it all together and tweak if needed
SI am getting it now...if you turn on an effect, the slider itself needs to be at some value over 0. If you dont want any strength to the effect, disable it in effects tab
AI’d recommend not changing any settings in the app unless you’re trying to tune an existing plane, spring centering is what gets adjusted in the f-14 when trimming
AThose big sliders also change how much a game can apply
AYou basically told the game — never apply a spring
SThanks, going to drop everything back to vanilla, get trim working, then tweak from there
AGiven your green role color, sounds like you built a custom setup, but on the default rhino — we have that encoder dial we can turn to manually in real-time adjust how strong the spring effect is. Not sure if you added the equivalent for your setup, but probs best to just that dial that in real time to turn up/down the spring if you don’t like it so strong
KI just tried Trim on my system. I have nothing sticky, and only master gain set to 100%, then controlled by the potentiometer. and the only thing I did to DCS was set the trim buttons. My trim moves with the button presses.
K(on F-14A)
Scorrect, DIY build. Currently have one pot set to friction intensity and the other one I have changed between periodic effects and damper.
I do think my issue is sticky spring which I will remove all together and if I do add it I will set pot 2 to spring effects or master gain.
Thanks!!

SThanks for the input.....testing it in a little bit
KI'd recommend setting a pot to master gain. Master gain affects the in game effects including trim.

MDo we have drawings for the 57BLF03? I would like to know its dimension
SThis is baffling.
no effects on
current settings
Mater gain set to pot1 and cranked to max
FFB on in DCS misc and F14 special for trim
I hit the trim hat...I see the trim move in the Rtcl-Enter display....stick stays put

WYour spring is at 0% in the screenshot above
SEven if not using the effect it needs to be above zero for trim to work?
WYes, now it essentially multiplies all spring forces created by the game by 0
Sahhh ok makes sense, trim is a spring force.....thanks off to test
