greater acceleration
infinite acceleration

The best answer is less acceleration.
According to Newton's Second Law of Motion (F = ma), the acceleration produced by a given force is inversely proportional to the mass of the object. Since the helicopter has a greater mass compared to Trinity, the same force would result in less acceleration for the helicopter.
