The result is a collective that moves more smoothly and responds more naturally, closer to the feel of a real helicopter collective than a base without counter-balancing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003c\/div\u003e\n\n    \u003cdiv class=\"pcs-faq-item\"\u003e\n      \u003cp class=\"pcs-faq-q\"\u003eWhat does the twist throttle correction axis do?\u003c\/p\u003e\n      \u003cp class=\"pcs-faq-a\"\u003eIt is a twist grip on the collective arm used to manage engine RPM and governor \/ throttle correction input, just like a real helicopter collective. The Plus also includes a physical engine idle-stop detent so you can roll the throttle to idle and feel the gate, plus a dedicated button and toggle for systems control.
