Variable force curve based on trim position

Is there a way to introduce a force "curve" based on the current elevator trim position? AFAIK there's currently no interface in the market that does this and it's really essential to a lot of the aircrafts with variable spring feel design like the CL650 which we already have an amazing add-on for but no proper way to introduce realistic yoke behaviour.

Hey could you describe this in a bit more detail? Do you want a force curve tuning page where you can set the curve? Or something else?

Hi!

Yeah what i wanted to have is something like that i can bind to either a lvar in MSFS or a dataref in Xplane manually (for example stab trim position based on different aircraft), then i can map a custom curve mapping the output force to each position of that lvar/dataref.

Example:

dataref.xxx @ -0.5 = 60% of force on y axis; dataref.xxx @ 0 = 20% of force on y axis; dataref.xxx @ 0.5 = 60% of force on y axis; dataref.xxx @ 1 = 100% of force on y axis;

etc.

I hope that explanation made it clearer. But a specific use case would be for the Hot Start Challenger 650, the Challenger has a "variable spring" system based on current stab trim position, so the spring tension is different based on different stabilizer trim position, There is currently no interface software in the market that can provide that kind of freedom.
