I have also had a different, fairly
I have also had a different, fairly consistent issue, while I'm at it, that I have been meaning to ask about. Fairly often - most often when switching to the F-14 - I will find myself in a situation, where I have FFB coming from the game, but trimming doesn't work! I have no idea why. It's a bit of a dice toss every time I enter a plane, whether it will have trim or not. Most of the time, it will, but every... I wanna say 20%-25% of the times, it doesn't. The only solution appears to be to restart DCS.
I don't know where the fault lies here, and it's not something that is consistent enough that it is easily reproducible. There isn't a specific set of plane and mission that just triggers it every time. Honestly feels like it's just DCS randomly fucking up...
Any ideas on this one?

This started happening after upgrading to v17 firmware?
No, it's been a recurring issue since the beginning (oct last year). Feels like it's gotten worse, though. Not sure why. It appears to be random. Sometimes it happens first plane I try, other times it happens after I switch a few cockpits. The Tomcat and Phantom appear to trigger it most often for some reason.
I have long suspected the problem must lay on ED's side, but I'm not sure.
