October 27, 200916 yr Hi All, I've recently bought the ND Arts & Tech. Payware Hurricane for Xplane - excellent though it is I have a couple of queries.Firstly the Flaps - there seems to be only two selections possible - up or down. The guages shows as it should the various settings as per the real Hurricane, but they are not selectable. Also - if the a/craft is flown by the AI (as selectable in the sim.) - it will take off with a low flap setting as one would expect. Try as I might I'm unable to replicate this from the cockpit.Also: The instruments are hard to read - not bright enough - depending upon where the "sun" is coming from I suspect. I cannot find an instrument light switch on the sim. Nor am I able to set the instr. lights via the keyboard keys as shown in the sim.Whilst I'm about this post can anyone advise of any support forum for this model? I don't seem to be able to find much feedback on it at all - even though it would appear to represent quite a step forward as far as Xplane models go. On a linked issue - I find, when using the mouse and trying to 'select' various controls within the 3D cockpit of the Hurricane (and other models)- that the 'view' moves around as I position the mouse pointer over the control. It is probably me not setting things up properly but it is most annoying and I would like to know what I'm doing wrong - or not doing right perhaps.I'm using Xplane 9.21 (DVD Disc set) - I've yet to update it. My apologies for the many faceted query - but I will greatly appreciate any help or observations anyone is able to contribute.Regards, Blue.

October 27, 200916 yr Author Hi Marco, Many thanks for your help.I have sent an e-mail to Nils - I'm afraid I didn't know where to contact him, I could find no contact details with the model - so I'm grateful for your link.Regards, Blue.
