Helicopter spins on itself

Hi, basically when I use the helicopter or any vertical take-off vehicle, as soon as I take off it spins, I have a Hotas X, I also tried using the Xbox one controller but nothing, many people say that it is normal for it to do this, that I have to counteract the rudder but I can’t really understand, it doesn’t work with the Xbox one controller either, with flight sim 2020 this problem didn’t exist and I didn’t use any assistance, could someone help me? Thank you all so much! I’ll leave you the video below.

Make sure you have your tail rotor axis mapped to the twist grip of your HOTAS. The helicopter’s use different settings than their fixed wing brothers/sisters. My helicopter settings were defaulting with “Rudder” not “Tail Rotor Axis.” Hope this helps. :crossed_fingers:t3:

ok, as you can see in the photo it is set, later when I’m home I’ll see better, but yesterday I changed all the settings and activated the assistance but it didn’t work, anyway I’ll try later, also because repeated it doesn’t work even on the xbox one controller, and a beginner who would like to use it obviously doesn’t know anything

Bummer! I was hoping that would have solved it. I’ll be in the sim to poke around in a few hours… I’ll see what I can find. I did notice with my little bit of time in the H125 it needed more pedal than I was used to in 2020, the R66 seemed about the same. (Of course these are the CowanSims in 2020, I know they will be behave differently from Asobo’s A-Star and Carendo’s Robbie)

This week we are all beginners again. Everyone is green again. We learn together.

Tagging @belatu42 for assistance, I know you have a full rig, but your insight for heli’s is always helpful.
