trim woes????

Hey All.....since the dawn of time I've tried manual trimming....only to find that as soon as I touched the stick, all trim settings disappeared and I'm back to square 1.....making auto trim almost a default. Must be me...but I still can't fly a mission without touching the stick...hard to imagine, eh? Is there some dip**** simple setting that I've overlooked (likely) or is this a "live with it" item that's unavoidable? I love the new 109's ndicki's given us but I'm having a REALLY hard time trimming 'em to fly straight and solid, even on auto-trim.........my fault no doubt but my hat's off to the pilots that made any of these crates work in the real world. Any reflections, abuse, plain disregard, is appreciated at it's full value. Thanks...........GAW
 
Disable autotrimming and you'll get to adjust it all manually. Flight model must be at hard for it to work.

But, for the K-4 model:

1.00 units of aileron trim, 17.00 units of rudder trim (not kidding), -16 to 18 units of elevator trim (depending on the fuel load) - these for cruising at 80% power, 1.42 ata, at about 3000 feet. The airspeed should be just below the 500 km/h mark indicated.
