Please not that while we now have AIRLANDFS support, we do NOT yet have a profile which meets our expectations.  

Hopefully with some community help we will have something in the future more polished to share. Until then, you may enjoy the other beta 2 upgrades in our integral flight model.

Known issues:
- Cruise flight is not coordinated properly (Airland will notify to correct pedals
- AFCS/AP is not compatible with the current latest Airland build. Don't engage the AP 

Thank you HPG. I think it was your B option that mine was based on. 

What is the DRM method? Is it phone home every session? Every few days? Some other way?

Will this helicopter get Wwise sounds?

I think, the sound is really good.

Yes not bad, but missing the low/high idle difference.

We’re aiming for the H145M to be released by the end of this month! Here she is aboard the USS America LHA-6!

Happy Friday everyone!

The military variant of the HPG H145 will be released this weekend to all early access supporters!

Check out our latest update video and take a look at the first functional weapons system for an aircraft in Microsoft Flight Simulator!

 

Very nice step forward with the rockets, thank you 🙂 Some more DCS type stuff would be awesome. I'd love a shared cockpit / multi crew feature. Some rescue missions etc.

Has there been any changes to the flight profiles lately? A new profile for airlands etc?

Our most recent build from Beta #8 includes an early profile. You should take care to not engage upper modes like HDG ALT etc, but otherwise it works. Also the elevator trim won't be passed to AirlandFS yet.

Happy Friday everybody! We've released a video previewing the new features and changes you can expect when Beta #10 is released before the end of this weekend!
