A Hensley-patent hitch is night & day different. Makes all other types obsolete. Sway is guaranteed eliminated. Handling problems (solutions) are now limited to the TV, and even MPG improved as trailer DOES NOT move out of alignment thus reducing a huge number of minor steering corrections (especially with adverse wind direction).
A 5er is a pig to tow in comparison. Top-heavy & unstable. Any winds and it’s time to stop.
Set the hitch as with any other (same as 5er): Steer Axle same weight value solo or hitched.
The trailer cannot move out of alignment UNLESS the TV initiates a turn.
