In real life, force trim will keep your cyclic in same spot where it was when you released the button. Think of it as making it a new center where the cyclic would return if you move it.

Since most of the people have a spring-return-to center joysticks, force trim will allow you to return your physical stick back in center, so you  don't fight the springs all the time, while in game stick remains in that "new" center. What you also want to do is to bind trim reset so you can quickly erase any trimming you did (for example if you trim for fast forward flight and you lose the engine, you will not have enough back cyclic to keep the nose up if you go into autorotation).

Hope this helps, if you have any more questions feel free to ask.

Perfect, thanks both!

Had to do this because I'm talking to myself lol same name not the same year...God I'm older then you. Forget the Trim. Turn it off or just don't use it. Learn to fly with it off. You may Die more at first but we all did. If I could give the best advice to a new pilot it would be: Invest into the ALL 3 Control devices needed. A good Stick, Throttle, and Rudder Peddles, Good Luck and Enjoy. and Best Name Ever!!!
