Elevator trim, in Control Surfaces.  I'm 99.9% sure that's what it's under.

Thanks very much!  :D 8)

Can anyone also tell me where some of the best scenic places are to fly? Or with the best/greatest level of detail. I guess they would be in the U$ - as Micro$oft is from there. :)

I just posted a reply to a Tiger Moth query. It's interesting, because the Tiger Moth package from SimV includes a My flights package too, which some how changes all the scenery. I used the Spring time flight from a Mountain location in British Columbia. Now admittedly, I had to be very careful to take off from this non existent lake, but flying among the mountain creek beds and river valleys to Golden BC gave me a fantastically realistic view of BC's snow covered mountains. I changed planes at Golden to the Turbo Otter and flew from there to Revelstoke climbing to FL 120 among some amazingly beautiful scenery. Decending sharply into Revelstoke allowed me to overshoot and take a look at this fantastic Dam before a hair raising turn back to Land behind an AI flight using the steep approach to R/W 12. Pics will follow in the Screenshots forum as soon as I can get them under spec.

well...Jeff is being =/..hmmm.weeellll.....Politically Incorrect?!?!?! go figure uhn? LOL LOL

Concerning the trim...U can go to fs menu and reassign the trim buttons, dunno if it's the case of yours, but the numeric pads 7 and 1 are meant to be the trim but due to the stick you will have to choose again the buttons U want to use, ok?

cya!

PS> Politically Incorrect -> that was a good one....

Hey, Saitek.  You're using the X-45, yes?  If so, I have a pretty good setup I have made for FS9 with most of the important features (including trim) set in.  If you would like to try it out, I can email it to you.  I've been thinking of uploading it to a site, but I don't know if its good or not.

No, I am currently using the Saitek Cyborg 3d Rumble force
(it's at the end of every post.. ;) ) so I don't think it would work - but I never know what to assign the buttons to. I have 8 seperate buttons, a hat switch and a throttle.
Thanks anyway, but if you think it still could be of any help - then I'd love it. 8)

Cheers

Ben :)

Ender, I am using the X45 and I'd be happy to receive an e-mail off you. I use the 2nd 4 way hat for trim 4 ways, it works quite well for most. I use the pinky switch for ATC.

Sorry folks!  Been out of commission for awhile, here.  Started my weekend a little early, and I've been out of my house since then.

Anyhoo, I'll get that thingie set into an email sometime here today . . .
