Gents - I've been trying for months now and I can't find it mentioned in the manuals or here in the forum or anywhere. Yes, I've done a thorough search!How do I make the wings flap to be able to take-off???? And how do I make them flap faster???I'm amazed if the above thing hasn't been included in a expensive package like this!!!Thanks for any help,Mats JohanssonBored beta-tester...lol

You mean all this time and you do not know where the flapping wings switch is Mats? Best Wishes,[h4]Randy J. Smith[/h4]http://www.rawbw.com/~bdoolin/shinault/Animation1.gifCaution!

The solution is that when you sit down and load FS v9, if your are using a joy stick, you have to pump on it in order to activate the FLAPPING simulation. The faster you pump, the more joy. It's an undocumented feature.Ron - CYEG

For once Randy is incorrect and it doesn't often happend! Wow Randy, I can't believe you got this one wrong. Don't you remember all of the heated discussions during the Beta? :-lolThis feature was not included in the NG because PMDG didn't think they could get it modeled correcty, simulating the actual real world functionality. As PMDG has stated many times, they will only include functionality if it works like the real thing! :-)I'll bet it will in the 747 though! ;-)

I think it was a kind of tongue in cheek remark. :)edit...I just realized, maybe yours was too. :)
