V5 Express Collective Sensitivity

I have noticed that the collective input timing of standing flips and rolls is different than when my Trex 500 had its flybar. It seems like I have to get on the negative much sooner or the ship won't flip or roll 'on axis'. It almost seems like there's a small bit of cyclic to collective mix going on. Maybe it's just the increase in immediate power available to the cyclic. In any case, I'm sure I can get used to this. Does the adjustable PITCH PUMP feature in 5 pro allow the collective sensitivity/response speed to adjusted? If not, what does PITCH PUMP do? - Thanks!

Pitch pump speeds up and even overdrives a little the collective output when banging sticks.
When steering gently, it doesn't interact.

It's cool when doing tic-tocs grinning smiley

OK, I get that, thanks! I'm pushing the cyclic stick pretty quickly for my standing loops and rolls. Do you know if V5 Express has any amount of 'pitch pump' built in?

Afaik it's zeroed out, there.

Best regards
