Maybe slightly but, IMHO, with full nose-up elevator maintained, not enough to unstall the airplane. I don't expect the airplane to have the straight-wing characteristic of a nose drop that can't be arrested.
The object of my earlier response was not recovery from Stall, but the alerting effect of an elevators only Nose Drop earlier in the sequence. My contention is that the THS' effect was counter to certification requirements, it disallowed an earlier and standard response of a Stalling airframe.
One cannot escape the fact that Autotrim, in this instance, would never be allowed in any aircraft, if it took away the standard dependence on both buffet, and Nose Drop
Besides, recovery from Stall requires the use of normal controls only, and nothing else. Having to depend on trim to recover, or avoid, is not allowed....
