Trims to Subtrims
Is there an existing issue for this feature request?
- [X] I have searched the existing issues
Is your feature request related to a problem?
When using FlightModes, and in the OUTPUTS menus selecting 'Add all Trims to Subtrims', the Trims for the active FlightMode sets to zero and in the other FlightModes their Trims sets relative to the active FlightMode Trims.
Describe the solution you'd like
- Is it possible to enchance the 'Add all Trims to Subtrims' to have the Trims in all FlightModes set to zero and not relative to the active FlightMode.
- To further enhance the usage, having the choice to 'Add active FM Trims to Subtrims'
Describe alternatives you've considered

Additional context
This could make room for another main menu where the Subtrim values for the FlightModes are exposed, 'Subtrims', and can also be changed by the user. A litttle like the 'Global Variables' menu layout.
The first problem I can see here is subtrim is not flight mode specific... it is common, and specific to the outputs page.
Is it possible to enchance the 'Add all Trims to Subtrims' to have the Trims in all FlightModes set to zero and not relative to the active FlightMode.
Should this really be tried to that option, since subtrim is not actually related to flight mode? And whether the FM trims are relative to another other FM is something you configure... it simply defaults to being the same as the FM0 value, rather than additive or relative to another FM.
I am probably missing something... can you elaborate further what it is you are actually trying to achieve here?
By using separate Subtrim values for FlightModes there is the possibility to have all the Trim values set to '0', but they are actually individually different, du to the "Trim to Subtrims" function. This means having trimmed my model to my preferences during flight, different elevator Trims in FlightModes, I can then have a deafult setup for my model where all the Trims are '0'. Being out flying in another area or country (or special weather) I then change my Trims manually by clicking on the Trims for that site/weather. When I want to set the Trims back to default, I then just set all the Trims manually back to'0' again. (In glider competition we have many FlightModes and different elevator trims).
