" seventhree:
Pitch goes gradually to direct, roll not. And that makes it tricky...
Rudder is always direct.
Pitch direct is blended in gradually and reached around 50ft and even a light nose down momentum is induced to you make you pull the stick. Stabilizer position is also a key factor for pitch control (if it's bad you can hit the mechanical stop of the stick)"
WRONG
Flare mode memorizes the pitch and gradually introduces a nose down trend but the sidestick still commands load factor or angle of attack (mode dependant) Direct control of the elevators does not occur until after touchdown.
