Elevator Trim Question

Lightman

Charter Member
Noticed that when i go into Quick Combat for testing and hit the Z key
It shows that my Elevator trim is at -27.50 and if i go into Multi player and host a game it is set at -18.97 ,
I would like to have it set in the + range when i start a game so i don't waste any time trimming out my aircraft.
Anyone know how to do this ???
 
Question

What difficulty/flight realism level do you play at? If it is not hard the computer has a tendency to set the trim for you as you fly along. Every so often I need to delete some file form the application folder in Windows and forget to reset the realism level and darn the computer takes over the plane. Also, the flightmodels (at least mine) are all developed to fly at hard and at least 95% realism.
 
I always fly at 95% realism and each time I start a mission, if I'm in flight, CFS3 automatically setup the trim. The trim value depends of the aircraft and speed.

Most of the time flight models are set to hard, Realism usually between 80% to 95%
I have been looking at this in a range of different settings,
I know that when i switch aircraft, Those trim numbers will be different but they all seem to start out in the - (minus range) Speed doesn't seem to be a factor with this,

Not that this is a big issue, Game runs fine,
Was just wondering if there is anyway to change the default Elevator trim values , Or maybe this should be left as is.
