I think the OP is looking at long stab considerations?

If so, the general variation of stick force (which is the thing you might wish to trim out) with speed moving away from the trim speed is sort of linear but, normally, with a bit of roll off. The important thing is that it be acceptably monotonic.

If one runs a Google search one can find lots of relevant curves.
