Hey Storm, my fellow Piedmont friend !, good to see you here bud, yeah I'm sure it's a fine flying machine, just the older I get the less patience I have with things like this is all.Hey Jymp! Great to see you here! Yes, it's a few more hoops to jump through to get her flying but it's very rewarding once learned and honestly it's not at all a steep learning curve. I have to say, this is one of the finest freeware models (actually finest FS models period!) that I've ever seen. To Maryadi and Rob (and all others involved), you're all very generous in the work you've done on this model. Personally, I say a huge Thank You!
I know a while back I posted that I have retired from FS. Technically that is still so due to my schedule and a good bit of burnout factoring in and as I noted months ago, I shared this hobby with my late father (who passed nearly a year ago). During his prolonged illness, my introducing him to new models provided him with a good bit of enjoyment while he was forced to stay at home (which I was his caretaker a good bit of that time). His absence & not being able to share it with him now is another reason I don't do this as much anymore but I will always support this hobby in any way I can and keep poking my head in here. Again, Maryadi & Team, Great Job!
Oh, sorry I forgot to mention, I'm using P3Dv4.

Marvelous, got her running without reading the manual, got her up in the air and promptly crashed. They say reading the instructions is a man’s last resort. How true.
off to read the manual. Thanks for the wonderful gift to the community. Truly great a prime contender for the hall of fame. Beats most payware out there..

Ok, no problem, read the manual, got it flying, In P3D V4, MFD's up, props spinning, all that, you actually have to flip switches and such to get this bird off the ground, we are too spoiled by clicking fly, and off we go.about patience same with me, I actually lazy converting this aircraft that support with P3D v4, lot of things to do, huge download for VS software. I should thanks to MILVIZ that buy the software for me and you all that use this aircraft get for FREE. there more than a patience to make this aircraft work as it now. so if it doesn't work, what should you do?
first:
did you already followed chapter 1 about installation in flight manual? follow on each requirement and installation?
2nd:
still getting trouble? just asking, and tell me what already you did?
I can't help if somebody just ONLY told me that "it's doesn't work", and that all.
I only a Human that can't read someone mind, doesn't know before it happen, doesn't know if something not telling me. so please help me?
Regards,
I must of missed reading something in the manual but this bucket will fly (airborne) without and blade animation.
Also, note my comment in second attached photo. The overhead levers, I have to left click and down drag it to make the lever and it move only a small amount with each try.
First pic notes that sim is paused but it flys as you see it in the picture with no blade movement.
