This makes the most sense of all. Make Autotrim applicable to helicopters as well. Should solve everyone’s boggle.
I own the Cowansim H125. The interior modeling in it is so much better. The flight model on the Asobo is ok needs improvement. I agree this doesn’t respond correctly to the collective input. The anti torque response feels twitchy in hover. Especially in career mode for some reason. It has made me quit career mode for the time being. I’m using Pro Flight Puma X so good controls.

Sorry for that noop question but is there a key not spad binding for the force trim function in MSFS 2024 helicopters? I’m a bit confused right now.
That doesn’t solve the trim issue. I don’t want auto trim…I want to “trim” it myself.
This is not a good point though, the irl version also has none of the assist that are optional in the assist menu, but they are in the game, why. It’s for playability. The very same reason we should have the option to use something as a force trim on this, not for realism for playability…
YES Martial, and just like (most) H125s don’t have trim the vast majority of FS users don’t have … guess what … scaled helicopter-specific controllers!
You go sit with your hand pressed hard against a spring on a 2 hour flight and you will understand.
Give us trim. If the 3 people with realistic controls don’t want to use trim then all they have to do is NOT MAP THE CONTROL. Come to think of it, no helicopter I’ve ever been in has the option to press Control+E to start it up, so why not remove that option as well???
It really is not that complicated.

Same problem but even at full brightness I cant read the screen in VR.
My two issues are my mouse does not work in VR in this model but it works in the Cowan 125!
I can not assign a throttle to move between flight and idle in any helicopter on the helicopter axis even the Cowan 125.
The knob just above the panel on the left switches between day/night mode. Turn it to day then adjust further with the pictured buttons.

It’s not modeled as an axis in the H125 addons. It’s more of a switch that is either on idle or flight.

Ok well I fly the 125 IRL occasionally and it has a twist throttle that goes between idle and flight , the 145 has a switch .

ok thanks Ill try that .
Seems there is an issue again like 2020…
Yep. They aren’t modeled functionally true to the real aircraft. I have time in the AS350B3, from before Airbus renamed everything. You can’t assign it functionally to a collective controller with a throttle grip.
This is just a binding issue. Nothing for helicopters should be assigned to ‘throttle’ or ‘propeller’
The commands that work correctly are:
‘set helicopter throttle axis’ and ‘collective axis’
Then the twist grip throttle and collective will work as they should in the R66 and Cabri G2. The collective will work in the H125, but you have to click it from idle to flight.
I haven’t tested the Bell 47J or Scout/Wasp yet.
The larger helis such as the CH-47, S-64 and H225 don’t have twist grip collectives. I just operate those throttle levers in cockpit with the mouse.

Ok for some reason the throttle axis was not being picked up in a scan!
I went into the setting cog and manually selected the Y axis on my Komodo collective and I was able to assign it.

The control settings menu is a little buggy at the moment, but still better than 2020. After the last update I get CTDs if I try to delete a profile…haven’t posted that bug yet.
How is the Komodo collective? I’m using a new piece of kit from Pro-Flight-Trainer.

I have the Proflight and the Komodo .
They both are as good as each other in terms of usage though the Komodo is just feels like the real deal in your hands but usage wise no difference.
The proflight is an easy all in one unit while the Komodo needs a custom base.
I use the proflight at my holiday home on a laptop.
TBH the proflight is better value for money and in just as good to use.
The trim release button is on the IRL stick in the 125, it just doesn’t do anything. It’s a standard Airbus stick that they use across a number of different helicopters, some with and some without trim, it’s just cheaper to mass produce one stick for all instead of a bespoke stick per aircraft type.
