Explanation of proposals:
At 1st we need functioning search lights.
At nighttime any (man controllable) AA gun directing gun to the sky causes automated search lights start scanning the same part of the sky.

Benefits:
More immersion.
Ability to defend against night raids more effectively.
Searchlights do function, although rather dim. Check posts, there are threads regarding this.

If you read carefully what I request, you'll see that I want searchlights react to human controlled AA gun tracking to some degree.

Give flaps and rads axis assignments like elevator trim is in the game

Benefits:
support 9-turn saitek trim wheel as bf 109 flap, rad control
I thought it was already possible to assign axes to flaps and radiators although have not tried myself due to lack of available axes:

Controls > aircraft > axes tab

FM/Messerschmitt 109 rudder trim

Explanation of proposals:

Messerschmitt 109 fighters did have a rudder trim. But it had to be adjusted on the airfield by the ground crew before take off and the pilot could not change it during the flight. It would be nice that it could be done also in the sim.

Benefits:

Added realism and better handling of the plane
So this control should only be enabled while on the ground with stopped engine, or maybe only available in the "armament" screen.

Completely unnecessary, as the rudder trim is there and adjusted to the normal cruise speed of 300 to 350 km/h.

And what if some pilots want to adjust it for speeds 350-400 or more or for 250-300 or less? They can't have it because robtek is the guru who know what is the best for every pilot flying online or offline?

Which would have been accurate, the pilot did not determine what speed the ground crew adjusted the trims to. It was standardized to what speed, with the angle being tailored to the individual aircraft's needs.

The same for the ammo belts, but we can change them. IMO it can be a good addon as option.

A whole generation of pilots learned to treasure the Spitfire for its delightful response to aerobatic manoeuvres and its handiness as a dogfighter. Iit is odd that they had continued to esteem these qualities over those of other fighters in spite of the fact that they were of only secondary importance tactically.Thus it is doubly ironic that the Spitfire’s reputation would habitually be established by reference to archaic, non-tactical criteria.
