Manfred Tamminga 0 Posted October 8, 2020 Share Posted October 8, 2020 Hi there, The stab Trim always goes off beyond the limit to maximum if I use the HDG knob to manually intercept the ILS for example Has someone noticed that correlation between HDG in curves and Trim?

A_Pilot 70 Posted October 8, 2020 Share Posted October 8, 2020 Max as in 0.0? Is the plane still flying level in those turns? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Manfred Tamminga 0 Posted October 10, 2020 Author Share Posted October 10, 2020 Hi A_Pilot, well, lets try to explain in a little bit more deeply! I now encountered this behavior not only on HDG turns, but even at FMS/NAV turns, both on Autopilot. While doing its turn the CRJ increases the Nose Up Stab trim from its normal green range (0.0 to about 7.0) to Max 15.0 (Buttons Auto Stab Trim/ Mach Trim are activated) This behavior is followed by a rapidly loss of altitude (stall), which can barly be compensated by maxiumum Toga Thrust. The only thing that might help, is to reduce the trim on the yoke manually. But I cant not believe this should be made by every turn manually, can it? I find the CRJ quite insteresting but with that, its not flyable for me! Greetings Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A_Pilot 70 Posted October 10, 2020 Share Posted October 10, 2020 What speed are you flying at when you make these turns? If you have any pictures that would help a lot, this doesn't sounds like normal CRJ behaviour, but if you're not flying fast enough or are overloaded this could be the case.

Hoffie3000 96 Posted October 11, 2020 Share Posted October 11, 2020 Are you aware the CRj`s have no Auto Thrust? You have manually adjust thrust every time you made some flight maneuvers. Wolfgang Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Manfred Tamminga 0 Posted October 11, 2020 Author Share Posted October 11, 2020 Wolfgang, good hint about the "No Auto Thrust" but I am Aware of that! Anyway the speed control might have been a good advice! I now flew some legs DUS-FRA without a problem by looking very very carefully to the speed tape! Didnt expect it that sensitive!?! I will make some more testflights but for now I think this topic can be closed Thx guys for the support anyway! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One way to prevent this is to climb in SPD(CLB) mode, targeting 250kts below 10,000 ft and 290-320, then Mach .77 above 10,000 feet. This will keep you in a good and safe speed range. Climbing in VS mode is not prohibited, but comes with some degree of stall risk that's effectively eliminated in the RJ in SPD/CLB mode. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
