August 13, 2025Aug 13 It had been quite a while since I had last tried Brett's Bell 47 in Xp9 : X-Plane v9 - beta 6 - Bell47 at LOWIYes  Yesterday I gave it a go, in the latest Xp12 version from the .Org and WOWWWWWWW !!!! What a delight !!!! We have to love Brett 🙂 : Brett S. Blunt, Brilliant, and Probably Right - Interviews - Developer Spotlight - X-Plane.Org Forum Make sure you fly it without the "fake" governor/ correlator as the original was, although Brett has included a "switch" to allow users who don't want all that realism to be able to operate it using only the collective, and at most the carburetor heat.

August 14, 2025Aug 14 I learned to fly rotary back in the 1970s in the 47G2 with balsa wood blades. Did all of 50 hours in the G2. Went on to the 206 then. Fond memory.
August 14, 2025Aug 14 Author Can you give your feedback on this Xp12 model by Btrett? I did have to turn Off the GLoad camera effects because the image as the heli was loaded was constantly jumping. After that I took it for a few flights, including tests of autorotation, and was satisfied with the overall behaviour. It is particularly nice to use the grip throttle and manually control engine power and collective, without using the fake "governor" which i believe the original model didn't have (?)
