Thank you guys, I'm really itching to fly this again but the stich keeps returning to the full back position on it's own. Force trim issue? How do you turn it off and I see no settings for it in the configuration manager.

Thanks again,
LouP

hello, super finally our baby flying in our hands.
You did a very good job and I thank you for it.
If I can afford a personal feeling in the sounds: when you increase the torque, a hissing appears that is very acute and permanent. It seems too high compared to the rest of the sound of the turbine. It was less highlighted in the previous version.
Congratulations for the complete shadow of the aircraft on the ground when we are in the cockpit.
Thank you

I uninstalled it and installed it, everything works but the cockpit indicator lights at night, I can hear the knob clicking but no lights.

Keep rolling the rthe know with your scroll wheel. The come on. Also make sue you antivirus is off while installing. The asiest test to see if your lights are working is to click on the overhead cockpit lights. if they work, then it's just a matter of scrolling that knob a little more. HOpe this helps :D

No, it's ok for me.
All is good, however I use a helicopter panel of my manufacture, with a cyclic MaxFlightStick which is quite delicate! but everything is working properly

OK, thanks, I got it solved. There were some buttons assigned to elevator trim on my heli controls. Not sure how they got there and may be left over from the original version. All is good now. :-)

Hello,
I installed the MD530f into p3dv4.2.
Startup and lightings are working.
But the helo needs a great ammount of PC‘s ressources. Flying it in Virtual Reality is a real pain as the fps really slow down.
I‘m not sure if GTN750/650 devices implementation is the reason for this. But firing the GTN‘s up takes minutes. Pressing a button takes 5 seconds till the approbiate function is displayed.

Does anybody else get these excessive fps drops when flying the 530f?

I have the GTN also implemtended in the Milviz Huey and it works great there.

Edit:
I just noticed that GTN trainer software was running twice in the background on my system. Deleting one running instance cured the issues with the slow responding GTN devices.
I will investigate the following days why the GTN Trainer was running twice on my system the following days.

I fly it with Oculus Rift and I get 30 (locked) FPS in both Native P3D VR and Flyinside. Are you running specific scenery? I had to get rid of Vector to have a flyable P3D in VR
