WHEN I PULL BACK ON THE THROTTLE, THE AIRCRAFT MAKES LIKE A LAWN DART AND HEADS FOR EARTH. WHATS WRONG?
A. In the Options|Controls dialog there is a “Setup Controls” button that accesses a dialog for assigning the joystick axes to various a/c controls. Make sure that trim control IS NOT set to the same axis as your joystick throttle. For some reason the auto setup has set up chpro/pedals for some users so the throttle was automatically programed to do trim (change throttle settings and the trim would change also).
