Ohhhhh, HUD is magic !!! :o) Yes, the vertical slider on the far left, indicates the collective setting !! :o) Wow, it's now quite fun to fly that heli, even if it looks ugly, and even without joystick ! With a joystick, it will be just fantastic, and once we have a few good looking heli models, it will be mind blowing ! :o)) FG is really marvelous ! :o) THe weather effect are superb, clouds, lighting effect etc. So now, all they need to do is sort out the terrain. The ground looks horrible, "flat", and all the moutains are very angular, not very natural at all. That said, X-plane is just as bad in this respect, so there must be some serious technical problem that needs to be overcome here... :-/ But hopefully, nothing that the Linux community, and time, can't sort out ! :o) Let's just be patient, and enjoy things as they are for now... :o))) Vince _______________________________________________ Flightgear-users mailing list [email protected] http://mail.flightgear.org/mailman/listinfo/flightgear-users 2f585eeea02e2c79d7b1d8c4963bae2d
