Thanks all, no i’m not a pilot in any life 
I don’t recall seeing a heli profile, not saying its not there but can’t remember seeing it, i’ll have another look. The basic controls all work so i can’t be far off but i have no trims mapped yet at all, i have the Thrustmaster HOTAS and pedals.
All axes are set linear, no dead zones etc. I’ll be trying again certainly and will try with the added weight too
