Syd,

    Thanks for the heads up. I'll just work with the electric/key 
functions for now until I get to know the programming language and 
syntax better. I only found the FlightGear software a week ago.

     I have two questions for you. First one is what is the differance 
between the Yasim engine and what you have here? Like I said, only been 
diving into this a week and am still figuring things out, so a simple 
answer would be best. ;)

Second question. Since the R22 has a bad tendency to move around when 
engine is at idle on the ground, do you think setting 'brakes' while 
there is weight on the skids would stop that. I might be able after a 
bit to figure out the code needed to apply 'brakes' while the skids are 
under deflection from weight, similar to what people do for figuring out 
the scissor deflection of struts in other aircraft. I ask so I don't go 
trying to figure it out if it won't work for this aircraft model.
