Very old. Please consider to upgrade to 0.9.8. > and love helicopters. But I don't have a Joystick. That's tough. Whatever you do, it won't be much fun. A joystick and pedals (or at least a js with twist axis instead) is almost mandatory for helicopter flying. And joysticks are cheap enough to keep it that way. > I pressed the "increase magneto" key, and that started the rotor and > apparently set the collective pitch to 100%, causing a rather violent > and sudden take-off... The collective controls are reversed in comparison with a fixed wing throttle: pull to raise, push to sink. That's also true for the PgUp PgDn keys. You need to push the collective down (repeated PgUp) before you start the turbines. m. _______________________________________________ Flightgear-users mailing list [email protected] http://mail.flightgear.org/mailman/listinfo/flightgear-users 2f585eeea02e2c79d7b1d8c4963bae2d
