Hi Dave,

I have not been a one for cold and dark but i am with this model, it sounds great on start up just as i would think a real 206 would sound bearing in mind i have not been in or near a real 206.

I found this very helpful, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zzrdNTBm3MY


Taking off she wants to turn to starboard and i only use my Saitek Cyborg 3D stick but with the twist grip i found it fine, it does need careful handling but once i got flying it felt good and enjoyable and i started on the high level 5 and did not find a problem,

One thing i found at first was that with the engine noise in the VC i had a job to hear ATC but found by tweaking the Dodosim settings i sorted it out ok, when i fly for real in a Robin DR400 it's quite a noise once the engine starts but of course once your headset is on it's fine so i feel this would be the same in a 206.

All in all for the money these addons cost nowadays i am happy with this one, i paid a bit more for the Disc version rather than a download,

All the best,

Roger.

Thanks for that Rog :thumbsup:

I had a look at the price yesterday and was a little dismayed. I don't think I'm ready to fork out £35 so fingers crossed it appears in a sale at some point :cpu:

Incidentally, there are some UK paints for it over at OZx ;)
