Hi Maik,

after creating a new build (OSG CVS) and downloading new data I made
several testflights.

The new build might have changed the behaviour a little, now I get the
correct pedal-response *very* groundnear (groundeffect?), going upwards
there is a small zone where I get no reliable effect and a little higher
I have the inverted pedal-response.

After several trials (and crashes) I got a little used to this and made
it through the transition into forward flight. Here I have the same
strange effect that pressing left pedal tilts  the aircraft to the right
(longitudinal axis) and right pedal press tilts it to the left (a normal
aircraft would tilt to the left when pressing left pedal and moving
siderudder to the left).
By the way, it was then really nice to land, slowing down and pitching
the rotors back step for step without knowing the exact speeds and
procedure-steps (got a very smooth landing with -10 deg).

This is just a report, nothing more. If it is working fine for you and
Emmanuel then it might be something strange due to my local copy.
Would be fine if other developers/users give further feedback.

At last, this is a very, very fascinating FG aircraft from all aspects
and this was not my last flight, I will ignore my old "pedal-habits" :-)
Thank you very much both Emmanuel and Maik for your work.

Regards
Georg
