      It's a stroboscopic effect, but you're not alone. Someone mentions this for each of my aircraft 🙂

          But Nick, the curved arrow is also pointing in opposite direction. The one when we hover cursor to the left of rudder wheel

            It might seem counter intuitive compared to the aileron trim knob above it, but here is what the POH says about the trim wheel direction: "Rotating the trim wheel to the right will trim nose-right; conversely; rotating it to the left will trim nose-left." I double checked the animation via the debugger, and it's definitely correct.

            As for the arrows in legacy interaction mode, I have to be honest, I don't pay too much attention to them, since they come from the Asobo interaction templates. I can reverse them, but then I worry they might look even more counterintuitive compared to all the other knob cursors around it.

              @Black-Square ok so maybe i have to switch away from legacy controls ? Ill even have to check which system i am using as of now. And speaking of rudder wheels, would you say that wheels are rotating more in comparison to the effect made or is it like this only in real

                If you're seeing the arrows, then you are using legacy mode, but there is no need to switch control methods. Some of my users prefer legacy mode, as it's a fast way to remove the blue control highlighting. I think about it like this: You push the trim wheels in the direction you want the aircraft to go. So, for the pitch trim, pushing the wheel forward/away from you pitches the nose down. Pushing the rudder trim wheel to the right yaws the nose to the right.
