SAS "trim"

[karolus10]

Hello !

I would like to suggest adding ability to adjust SAS attitude target in similar way we set trim Today.

In practice, we could hold the SAS trim key ([Y] key, for example) and move SAS target at ~2-5* per second (slow in general) by adding Your control input.

This would allow to made fine adjustments To SAS Target attitude without shutting it down or overriding it by our input, allowing for small, precise and smooth corrections (also good if craft in question is unstable).

When combine this with numerical info about attitude roll, pitch and yaw (SAS target could be displayed instead attitude, when holding SAS trim key) it would be possible to made maneuvers with high precision.

I'd be glad to hear others input .

Since all the new SAS system is, is essentially a gimbal lock to make piloting easier, with a full gimbal lock to hold attitude, this idea would make trimming a bit easier and more stable to do.
