"Completed several traffic patterns and flights with the Cessna 152 and the behaviour is now absolutely perfect. By setting the elevator trim authority to 0.26 (leaving propwash and surface-follow at defaults, with aero-drag and stick-alive on), the aircraft trims smoothly and easily — I can fly straight and level hands-free." — shared by rodriguez (MS Sidewinder FFB2).
