Rudder is offset in the controls display, bug or trim tab?

[Balzarog]

I’ve just started doing the training missions and some Instant Action missions in the A8, and noticed that the rudder indication in the controls display (I always use the display on a new aircraft until I develop my muscle memory) is constantly offset to the right. The only way I can bring it back to center is to use my left rudder pedal. Auto rudder and takeoff assist are disabled, and it’s offset the same amount both with and without a deadzone in my yaw axis. None of my other piston bangers (I own all except the Yak and Fw190 A8, which I’m evaluating during the free to download event) show the same offset, so this is specific to the A8.

 

What I’m wondering is if this is a design feature to show rudder offset due to a ground adjustable trim tab setting or a bug. I suspect the latter since the Dora and the K-4 have the same ground adjustable trim tab, but don’t have the same indications.

 

Anyone have any thoughts? Many thanks. If it’s a bug, I’ll report it.
