Really cool, I noticed the preset rudder trim when flying autopilot with power OFF. The autopilot compensates for it by yaw +7 (Bf109G-6) and yaw +8 (ki-61c). Big thanks Dawger for putting time in to give the airplanes, that don't have manual rudder trims, a preset trim just like the groundcrew did IRL. Takes a lot of stress off your wrist when cruising/climbing by hand without autopilot on a twisty-stick. (realism junkie here
). Also helps in combat as you'll be fighting your torque less at low speeds.

If you were a realism junkie climbing hard in high power single engine fighter you would stand on your right leg alone with the knee bent slightly for the entire climb.
Personally, I am not a fan of preset rudder trim because it has negative effects on high speed dive (lots of right yaw) but I will be adding an appropriate level of preset to the revised FM's due to popular demand.
