Can't get Robinson R44 off the ground!

Featured Replies

I have the Robinson R44 in MSFS, but I can't get it to fly.  It's totally started and rotors are moving normally, but I can't seem to figure out what I need to do to get it to lift off.  Any help would be much appreciated. 

Also, what is your impression of the flying characteristics of this helicopter in MSFS as compared to the others?

I did start Airland FS but that still did not work.  Perhaps I'm not using Airland correctly.  Not sure.

  • Problem solved.  I should have done a little more research on Airland FS before posting this.  Sorry.  I watched a YouTube on Airland FS and found out I wasn't loading my Profile at the correct time.  It's a little tricky but I now know better how to use this utility.

Thanks for reading this.

I thought the R44 (freeware, right?) didn't need AirlandFS anymore in its latest version ?

I'm pretty sure there are 2 versions.  The newer r44 does not need it.

I think you have the older version.

Anyone has a link to the non-AFS version, please?

Wow.  That's a revelation!  I missed that there was a non AFS version.  Just downloaded the new one.  Thanks!
