Under Desk Mounting Option Available.
This option is a $19 addon, it allows you to magnetically attach the trim wheel controller to the underside of your table top. The mounting plate attaches either with 3M VHB double sided tape (included) or by using screws (not included) to the underside of your table top. The controller will then magnetically attach to the mounting plate, allowing you to install or remove the controller in seconds. The desktop clamp is also included with this option.
Biggest issue I have with any sim is lack of realistic yoke & trim controls, both feel and sensitivity. The Flight Sim trim wheel simply eliminated the issue as to trim. Great piece of kit, quick calibration in X Plane and the 182 in the sim flys a lot like my real plane, the overly sensitive trim is just gone.
This trim wheel is plug-and-play and works exactly like it should with minimal setup. Makes trimming for straight-and-level flight a breeze and eliminates the over-sensitivity and under-sensitivity issues that some simulators have with an electric trim switch. The only issue I had was that the 3D-printed bracket holding the potentiometer onto the control wheel gear broke off with very little pressure. I made sure the potentiometer was centered and super-glued it back into place, and I haven't had any issues with it since.
Hey Nicholas, I am happy to hear you are enjoying the controller, I am sorry about the broken part though, please get in touch with me if you ever have any issues with it for a replacement, as this is not typical nor acceptable, I apologize!
Cheers,
Shawn
The build quality and functionality of this trim wheel is great on MSFS 2020. It feels a lot like the trim wheel in my Cardinal. Very accurate. Setup was simple too. Fast shipping and very grateful to Shawn for answering my pre-purchase questions.
More than enough revolutions (=accuracy) available and does it's job well! Printing quality could be better on the wheel, but not a big problem. Wheel is size quite close eg. to a wheel in C172.
I highly recommend Fightsimstuff equipment. I have the Cessna style throttle box and trim wheel. They both just plugged in and worked. So nice, wish my effinh Logitech Switch panel would!
