but isn't that a very inefficient process? For example, in a C152, I would trim it out until I feel the pressure on my yoke is gone, and then refer outside to see my aircraft's attitude. So in the sidestick, they won't feel that force, they can only refer outside and trim accordingly (ie release the stick, see that the aircraft is still pitching up, trim again), whereas in my case, I can simply do it once by trimming until I have 0 pressure on my yoke.
