You adjust pitch and hold that pitch, then trim. The general "rule" is
nose attitude, adjust power, trim the airplane.
OK, I will try that.
I'm not sure how you can without a force feedback joy stick. You use
the trim to remove pressure from the yoke.
As you surmise, the "trim" doesn't work like real life when you are using a
spring loaded joystick.
Instead of changing stick forces, the "trim" adds (up or down) pitch - so
you have to move the stick as you change the trim to maintain the same
attitude. In the end, you can fly at "zero stick force" by using "trim", but
the way it works and feels is way different (based on my experience with
both).
