H125 collective moves by itself, using a controller

Has anyone noticed that the collective moves by itself in certain flight/input conditions?

Collective assistant is disabled.

Replicate the issue:
Fly at an appropriate height, hover or cruise, then lower the collective all the way (via input from the controller). Initially the collective goes down, but then comes up again, about half way. You can see it in cockpit view and also the torque/power in all instruments and the H125 responds accordingly.

It’s like a forced self stabilisation. Is this by design or a bug?

Likely the vortex ring state assistant.

Thanks, that’s right. I actually forgot about it because I though I deactivated it long time ago. But it was active.
