So, what about a controller that = continuously varies=20 the trim speed between air speed X and Y ?
Maximum trim speed up to air speed X and=20 decaying trim speed to air speed Y.
A transition between two flight states, = something like=20 the controls of the V-22.
 
No, it doesn't exist, I would have to build=20 one.

I have a module (no longer made), but = has=20 adjustable speed settings
driven by a flap micro = switch.

Haven't=20 flown yet so don't know how well it works, but seems good = in
