    Just when you think you have everything running some what better...

    You get a message from the Hosting company. Short story they need to move us to a new server. I have been working with them to plan a good date for all concerned. Here is what we have come up with as a schedule.

    1. November 4th 17:00 -5UTC shut off the forums and start backup proceedures. During this time there will be no access to the forums or the Resource Section.
    2. November 5th Continue with Backups and download same until complete.
    3. November 6th 7:00 turn over server to hosting company to move system to new server
    4. November 7th - 8th restore backups and upgrade forum software.

    If all goes well we should be back online on November 8th.

    To keep you updated we will post updates on AVSIM forums.

    Thank you for your support.

JXT Simulations freeware Bell 505.

It's a nice looking model, but I can't control it either. Hopefully this will be fixed. The Taog Huey and the inibuilds Scout show that it is possible to create a nice flight model in MSFS. Maybe I'll use the Cowan B206 flight model with the 505 for the time being.

I tried just a while ago and I see what you both were talking about. It immediately went to a full right rotation and quickly became a real handful. With my thrustmaster I used full opposite "rudder"?, that got it back under control and I flew it like that for about 5 minutes then slowly released the pressure on the twist grip and it flew normally (kinda) for the remainder of the 15 minutes or so that I flew it.

One thing I did that probably exacerbated the situation was too much throttle. . .when I saw that and reduced it the Heli seemed to become a bit more tame.
 
I was able to control it, sort of, to fly a little ways, but a smooth descent and landing? Er, not so much. NC
