    First of all, I am delighted with this aircraft. It surpasses my previous favourites by far.
    One question: Is the friction lock functional? I can't see any rotation on the adjustment wheel and there is no change in the behaviour of the trim setting on the trim wheel on the left. I haven't found anything about this in the manual. Click spots are displayed for actuation, so I was expecting a function.

    @speedbrake setting of the friction lock, as it is simulated in this aircraft, affects the speed of movement of the mixture levers when operated with the mouse wheel on the virtual lever itself, and possibly when using keyboard bindings for the mixture levers.
    It is used to aid in precision operation of the mixture when leaning, for those who use keyboard or mouse controls.

    Ok. then I made a mistake in my thinking. I was of the opinion that the friction lock acts on the trim.
    Thanks for the quick answer.
