UH-60 Blackhawk Autopilot Hover Mode not functioning as expected

I can’t get the Blackhawk to move laterally (forward and sideways) in the autopilot hover mode.

According to the tutorial on the Aerofly website, one should use the aircraft trim to move the helicopter left, right, forwards and backwards.

I can find the trim on the cyclic (stick), but I can’t seem to press it in the mobile version of the game.

I know this is currently not a major issue, since we’ve got little use for a hover autopilot right now. However, if hovering becomes more important due to the addition of a function winch system for example, then it’d be great to see this fixed!🚁

Bam💪, both a bug report and a suggestion in one😂.

I watched the hover on autopilot. With a short press of the button on the stick, it switches to HVR-VHLD and the helicopter moves a little to the left and back. Then it stops and the robot switches back to HVR-POS. You can change the HDG with the rudder pedal. This way, you can reverse to the desired place by turning. This is all I can do on my ipad9 right now.

If you press the button on the stick for a longer time, the inclined reverse will be faster and the robot will not return to hover.

Jup, I figured that out know. The bug seems be in that the trimmer on the cyclic can only be applied to go to the left and back, but not the front and right.
