Have to comment that idea of using gyro hold mode for pitch coupling. First of all I don't think it helps very slow trim chances second it makes flying feel odd. To me it feels somewhat artificial and well odd. I have newer liked it. Damping mode instead is good for scale apearance IMO. Hawk is nice flier without gyro and feels more stable with it. Kinda removes some turbulence and makes most days feel like a calm day.

But biggest thing I'm against this idea is fact that this Hawk has no speed coupling when CG is right and elevator throw is reduced accordingly. My engine is also raised on top of engine mounts. But 6mm and 700mm+ lenght... must be negligible
