The V2 Trim Wheel is easy to install with the SkySync and WAsim Plugin. The unit sinks up quickly and preform like it would in real life. I am very pleased with all the products from Desk Top Pilot and their service and support is out standing. I recommend this produce highly.

Product Review: Desktop Pilot V2 Trim Wheel with IndicatorI recently purchased the V2 Trim Wheel with Indicator from Desktop Pilot, and I couldn’t be more impressed with both the product and the overall experience. Ordering from the UK was effortless—simply add it to the basket, enter your delivery details, and within minutes I had confirmation of my order. Just over a week later, the package arrived, and I was immediately struck by the superb quality of this piece of flight simulation equipment.As a real-world pilot, I can confidently say that this trim wheel adds a whole new level of realism to my simulator. The trim wheel is an essential control in actual flying, and this unit mirrors the look, feel, and rotation of the Cessna 172’s trim wheel almost perfectly. The movement required to trim the aircraft in the simulator is astonishingly close to the real-world experience, making it not only immersive but also genuinely useful for maintaining muscle memory and staying sharp between flights—particularly valuable during the often challenging flying conditions here in the UK.The real-time moving indicator is an excellent addition, further enhancing the authenticity and precision of the setup. For anyone seeking a realistic, high-quality trim wheel to elevate their virtual flying experience, this is, without doubt, the one to choose. On top of that, it represents fantastic value for money considering the quality and realism it brings to a setup.Finally, I must highlight the outstanding customer service. Alex at Desktop Pilot goes above and beyond to ensure everything meets expectations, making the whole process smooth and enjoyable from start to finish.If you are considering a purchase from Desktop Pilot, I wholeheartedly recommend going ahead—you will not be disappointed.— Wynne, UK

    Works great. Very similar to the real trim wheel on the C172.

    This wheel has made flying smoother and more immersive—highly recommended!

    Just a turn and trim adjusts perfectly, real Cessna feel, effortless setup, and brings immersive realism to every flight!

  3. C

    Among all the gear in my sim cockpit, the Ignition Panel stands out as my absolute favorite. The magneto key brings the startup procedure to life, and the array of switches covers everything from lights to engine control in one slick unit. Solid build, this is a must buy for any GA Lover!

  4. C

    A good V2 on this! A fantastic upgrade! The sliders feel smooth and precise. The metal faceplate and solid knobs give it a premium, durable feel. Setup was a breeze and makes flying more immersive and fun!

    This was a good upgrade for me!

  5. C

    Great quality! What a difference it’s made for me ever since I started using this! The pull-and-rotate handle feels spot on, just like the real thing. The build is sturdy, setup was effortless via USB, and it integrates with all sims. Keeping the aircraft stationary during taxi was never this realistic. Highly recommend for anyone serious about immersion!
