The
right
‐
hand
stick
controls
both
the
elevator
and
the
rudder.
Pushing
the
stick
forward/upward
will
lower
the
elevator
and
pitch
the
nose
of
the
airplane
downward
to
descend.
Pulling
the
stick
backward/downward
will
raise
the
elevator
and
pitch
the
nose
of
the
airplane
upward
to
climb.
The
elevator
trim
can
be
used
to
help
keep
the
airplane
from
climbing
or
descending
when
in
cruise
flight
and
with
no
right
‐
hand
stick/elevator
input.
For
example,
if
the
airplane
climbs
when
attempting
to
cruise
and
maintain
a
given
altitude,
add
down
elevator
trim
until
the
airplane
flies
as
level
as
possible
and
maintains
the
desired
altitude
at
cruise
speed.
