Hype Performance Group - H160 and H145 Trim Explanation  

Very good explanation!

That sounds a lot like "Force Trim" as in the Bell 407, no? In fact, in the MS FSX version of the Milviz 407, I had my Thrustmeter Warthog stick set to operate Force Trim with the stick's paddle lever, (located in the front of the stick, just above the flare at the base). I would pull and hold the paddle-lever and then make the cyclic input that I wanted and then release the paddle-lever when I reached the intended adjustment. In that way, I could keep the Cyclic (my Warthog J-Stick) in a more comfortable, centered, and relaxed position. For example; if I happened to be flying into a strong head wind and the aircraft's nose wanted to pitch up, gain altitude, and slow down, instead of applying a constantly held forward pressure on the cyclic, I would release the force trim (disengage it), by pulling and holding the paddle-lever. Then, I'd apply the forward cyclic input I wanted in response to the head wind effect and release the paddle-lever when I reached the desired adjustment, which would re-engage the force trim. I could then relax the forward pressure on the cyclic and allow it to return to its center position. It's been a while since I flew the Milviz FSX 407 but I think I recited that correctly. Anyway, the H160's Trim Release function appears to work the same way but it's also incorporated some additional, and more advanced, options that work with the SAS, which the Bell 407 didn't have. Thanks for the video!

Very clear and informative video, thanks.

VERY NICE TUTORIAL. SIMPLE AND STRAIGHTFORWARD EXPLANATION. THANK YOU. GREATLY APPRECIATED.

Great video my friend thanks and I will use the Settings

Sensacional maquina.

Excellent explanation . Thank you. Just wonder how you got into that initial quiet hover....

Kudos to Hype and BluEcho! I use Pro-flight Puma helo controls. It has friction cyclic, no centering springs like a joystick. In the Tablet setup page i use "no springs" button as expected. Question: The Follow-Up trim is greyedout, when no springs is selected. Is FU Trim working on friction cyclics? What is happening here? Thanks in advance.

Did you setup your flightmodel settings in classic or modern? I tried exactly your way of flying and setting but my h145 is always slightly making nose up nose down while cruising. It is very anoing.

So, I'm just making sure I understood you about all of this. For BOTH, you pretty much don't need to use trim release? If I keep it in HOVER (default), I don't need trim release in hover, but once I'm going over 30kts, I need to hit it for any changes I make? Once I do, then set a new attitude and release, the system will hold the new setting?

If you have time could you help me on how to record my vr flights in msfs! Any help would be much appreciated!
