Two more Cabri accidents in Germany, on February 1 and February 4 – D HAVC and D HAIG. Both look to have identical causes, spinning out of control in the hover ... the Gazelle and the EC120 had the same problem.
Is that "had" the same problem, or "have"?

If the former, how was it resolved?

Would it not be possible to introduce some mechanical linkage to amplify the initial pedal input and reduce the later pedal input so that the pedal input was more linear and closer to that of a standard tail rotor? (I'm genuinely interested - not trying to criticise Guimbol or Eurocopter).
