    Re: TRIM WHEELS

    In my King Air B200 cockpit I have a motorized trim wheel and I use the offset 0BC0 for both, setting (in manual mode) and reading (in AP mode) of the elevator trim value. Since the trim wheel directly indicates and sets the position of the elevator trim (or stabilizer in B737) I suppose there is no need of using offset 0BC2 just for elevator trim indication.

    Regards,
    Danilo

    Re: TRIM WHEELS

    Hello Danilo,

    can you tell me whats wrong with these settings? Fs2Phidget still doesnt show me the trim wheel value but only 0. And whenever i type in an offset, it shows INTERN in the offsett column.

    Thank you

    Sorry, but I am not familiar with the software you are using. As far as I can see, the settings are correct.
    What aircraft are you using in FSX? Does it work with default aircrafts? What are the results when using offsets 0BC2 or 2EA0? Do you have problem only with the elevator trim value or also with other offsets?
