Elevator trim accelerates if being held

Absolutely, thanks to the person posting this with the breakdown of trim rates. As a RW pilot, this is completely non-realistic for the reasons described above. What RW aircraft has non-linear trim?? If there is one, I can’t think of it. It’s not engineered this way because you could very easily have runaway control oscillations, compensating back and forth. The whole point of trim is small, linear, levels of input for fine corrections.
