CH Eclipse Yoke - Aileron Trim

[peterhayes]

Hi Pete

On the new CH Eclipse Yoke there are now 2 "trim wheels", one vertically (elevator) and one horizontally aileron). In FSX (and FSUIPC4) these are seen as "buttons" ie on the vertical one turning the wheel up gives one button number eg 18 and turning it down gives another eg 19. This is the same for right and left on the horizontal button eg 16 and 17.

In FSUIPC4 I have set the vertical trim wheel to elevator trim up and down but for better control I use the excellent "Offset SWord Increment" entering x0BC0,into the offset edit box, and using 256/16383 (increm) and 256/-16383 (dec) in the appropriate parameter box.

My question is: Is there a similar offset so that I can control the aileron trim in the same precise fashion.

I looked in the SDK documents but could not find a reference to aileron trim control input ie similar to elevator trim control input.

(Note: I apologise if I missed this function the manuals but I could not find any relevant info even after several searches.)

Regards

Yes. In the latest copy of the OFfsets Status list they appear as follows:

• 0C02 2 Aileron trim value/control: –16383 to +16383 [NEW!] Ok-SimC ?-SimC
  0C04 2 Rudder trim value/control: –16383 to +16383 [NEW!] Ok-SimC ?-SimC
  

It sounds like you are referring to an older list. Get the later one from the Updates announcement above.

Thank you. My error I was looking in an old set of back up files.
