Did you open the radiator flap? Gotta watch that Glycol temp! Honestly, I don't have it yet, but I thought it was a good first guess.
Nice pics.

Thats the first time you run it and every time you restart the sim.
Long story short :
Custom prop animations require a gauge. The gauge doesnt get loaded when you are in the chooser. Pick a plane and then let it load and then immediately select another and you should see the prop.
We had this discussion on another addon. The time most people spend in the chooser is minimal as compared to having correct/accurate start up timed to videos of the exact plane starting up. It is a function of an almost 15 year old game engine. Fingers crossed for FS2020.

Downloaded, extracted and using [FONT=Verdana,Arial,Tahoma,Calibri,Geneva,sans-serif]AH_Hur_MK1_P3DV4_PBR_v1.exe [/FONT]I've installed using the option to install outside P3D, but the Hurricane doesn't appear in the aircraft list.
The files installed to E:\P3D4 add-ons\Installed\AH Hurricane and look correct.
In P3D, there's no option to activate via manage add-ons though.
Looking at the zip content and the folders installed, I've got no documents for the Hurricane either.
Guess I'm doing something wrong?

Just an update. Found the docs folder, though didn't have time to take a look yet.
After un-installing and then re-installing, this time to the default external location in C:\user\documents etc, the Hurricane appeared in P3D.
Isn't there a way to install this somewhere else, like the E: drive mentioned above? As I said above, the install process allows you to select the install location, but P3D isn't finding it. Probably just me, but I'd like to hear how to do it.
I only had a short time to have a look at the Hurricane; it's lovely. There is a "but" though. I need a new PC. On a clean install of P3D with Orbx TE England and no other add-on's installed yet and with fairly mid settings I go from mid 40's with a default aircraft, to 10/12 with the Hurricane (PBR version). I'll try the non-PBR textures next time and use this as a reminder that a 5 year old PC is no good for PBR :-(

Paul, I don’t have the Hurricane but I have a thought about the frame rates. I have an older system as well and have discovered that the functional mirrors on the A2A products have a drastic effect on frame rates. Once disabled the frame rates return to normal levels. Maybe the Hurricane rear view mirror has the same effect? Perhaps a question for Baz, can the mirror be switched off?
