Looking forward to the update. Trying to do a very soft landing with the collective as it is at the moment is really tough.

Bug 1: Glass in cockpit doesn't show rain drops at all. Screen grab below. Unless I've turned off a setting somewhere. It shows on other aircraft. Bug 2: When first going to the MFD Map (Say at an airport) It shows a really zoomed in view of the map. Showing taxi lanes, buildings etc. Also the Zoom amount on the left says 4. But if you then go to Zoom the map in and out, the closest you can get is 2 then 4 then 8 etc...you can never get it back to the close in View you started with. 2 zoom is still far out. Questions; Just wondered if some odd things are how they should be, like: 1: To fly in a straight line I need a constant boot full of Right rudder. Otherwise the heli flies at a constant left pointing angle. A little to get started I imagined but not this much constantly. Is this how it should be? This isn't needed with the Hunter or other heli's as much. 2: This one I need to check more. ( I might have pressed something like reArming inbetween) But the dotted line showing the route to the target sometimes disappears after taking out the first target. I just get the circle highlighted but no line. Is this normal? 3: Collective seems to have all it's sensitivity at the very top 80 percent and up. I feel it needs to have this area kick in around 60. 4: I absolutely love the sounds on the Helicopter, great job! Also I can hear the missions being loaded but when getting close to a Target, if they're saying anything like " Target five miles out" or anything else like the one in the Hunter does, I can't hear it. Is it there? Or is it very quite and drowned out by the engines? Thanks

Found the problems. 1; Me 🙂 .Mixed up keyboard setting had changed my Cockpit camera to 'Close' instead of 'Widescreen'. 2; Isn't a problem. 3; I redownload the Heli. A fresh install fixed it. Thanks for helping me and putting up with my questions.

I'll check tomorrow. I think so....I followed the startup list. Is the ESS BUSS on that? Also wouldn't that also start with a Ctrl-E start? As that didn't start the MFDs either. I started it enough to fly it around 🙂

1; No, I've no custom camara setups or chaseplane. Everything standard....and works fine with your hunter too. 2;Once in the pilot seat, through using the EFB, yes, it's easy to move my position in VR. 3;I can rotate those MFD knobs just fine....but nothing happens. Screen stays blank. Am I turning something on earlier wrong? Though when not cold and dark, even Ctrl-E doesn't start them. Also how is the DFD screen supposed to be turned on as mentioned in the startup guide? Flight model is good fun, just wish the screens worked. I'll try a re-install.

1: When clicking on the cockpit handle outside, you should spawn into the cockpit. Position is wrong. As I always find myself sat in the front window looking over the nose. This then has to be corrected by selecting Pilot in the camera settings in the EFB. see jpg below. 2:When in the correct cockpit position it's quite far back. Especially in VR. 3: As nobody has mentioned this, it might be something I'm doing wrong. But I can't turn on any MFDs or DFD screens. It says in the startup info to turn the the two knobs on the top left of each screen. They glow blue. They do nothing. Even if I start with Ctrl-E they don't come on. What am I missing. Just thought I'd add I also have your 'Hunter' and that work great.

Sorry....my fault. I was looking for it in 'My Products'. Which automatically goes to the 'Installed' Status instead of 'Not Installed'. Didn't know it even had that silly extra area. So it didn't show. Got it now thanks.

Good start. Just bought the Kwikflight Striker. got the emails, confirmed the payment....There's no sign of it in iniManager. How long until it appears?

Not sure this will help but I've heard of other people having the same problem with other aircraft. Sometimes it just one that does it. In the end they found out it was something to do with your Autopilot settings. Like a clash of one of the keyboard settings. One said "If the auto pilot selector knob is on IAS" it did the same thing. Maybe look around that area as nobody else seems to have this problem with this heli. Good luck.

What do you have your collective set to? Hopefully just in Power management, and Collective axis? And you might need to invert it?

Just on the shut down...The manual mentions that putting the prop brakes onto the lowest setting slows it all down and stops the props. It works.

I don't have this problem but I don't use SPAD and just use normal MSFS Heli settings. So I'd guess it's your SPAD?

Yes it's a little loud

Looking at your screen grab above you don't have your throttle on 'Fly'.

Thank you. I'm amazed you've been able to do what you have already in msfs 2024. Great job! Love it so far.
