EspressoLyle added a comment to T78512: Ghost hawk hangs left low, blades including, resulting in leftwards hover/forward flight.

Helicopters do counter this with what is known as "flap" with complex rotor systems (fully articulated and semi rigid). However, the pilot's presence etc causes imbalances in the center of mass. This is meant for simulation. It's the pilot's duty to combat this.

The huey, for example, leans right and forward. That's why pilots use trim. MD Hughes 500 (littlebirds) lean different ways depending on their model. I've flown them.

I am myself a pilot who's flown a military huey, md hughes 500 and robinson r22. While there is "too much" input required to maintain a hover, it shouldn't be "centered" right off the bat. You've made like 4 tickets which mention this same "issue".

The yawing should be toned down but the concept in itself is realistic and occurs because of screwed up stress damages.

He mentions the yawing caused when jerking the stick back and forth thus changing airspeed by 100kph. This should cause yawing but also break the helicopter, and since this feature isn't implemented it looks like a bug. You took my comment the wrong way, vicx.
