January 18, 20179 yr More proof of the flow of emerging talent out there. This is one of the primary reasons I chose XP. Thanks for the heads up Ryan.

January 18, 20179 yr Thanks for the heads-up! I had forgotten about this one, and I'm always interested in helos with autopilot for use in FSEconomy (helps with those longer flights). X-Plane and Microsoft Flight Simulator on Windows 10 i7 6700 4.0 GHz, 32 GB RAM, GTX 1660 ti, 1920x1200 monitor

January 18, 20179 yr It's very light on the skids at engine idle right now, but that's probably due to propeller thrust modeling still being a little buggy and overpowered. It should settle down (for all helicopters) once Austin fixes that. X-Plane and Microsoft Flight Simulator on Windows 10 i7 6700 4.0 GHz, 32 GB RAM, GTX 1660 ti, 1920x1200 monitor
January 18, 20179 yr Author Yeah I tend to yaw left with idle power. Does anyone know how to engage the autopilot? I cannot understand the designer when he's talking in the you tube videos, as the engine sounds are too loud! | My Liveries | FAA ZMP | PPL ASEL | | Windows 11 | MSI Z690 Tomahawk | 12700K 4.7GHz | MSI RTX 4080 | 64GB 6000 MHz DDR5 | 500GB Samsung 860 Evo SSD | 2x 2TB Samsung 970 Evo M.2 | EVGA 850W Gold | Corsair 5000X | HP G2 (VR) / LG 27" 1440p |
January 19, 20179 yr How did you get this to work? I downloaded the Bell 429 from the link above. I also downloaded the patch. The confusing thing is the patch is a Bell412.acf. I tried renaming it to 429 and putting it in the Bell 429 folder. I also read somewhere that you needed to delete the geforce plugin. I get an error and CTD when I try to load the 429 in XP11pb6. Thanks. Jim
January 19, 20179 yr Unzip and install the 429 files (do it again since you renamed the original .acf file). The only files you need in that Bell 412 patch download are the ones in this folder, not the Bell 412 .acf file: /plugins/Bell412/64/ lin.xpl mac.xpl win.xpl I know it's a little confusing, but what's happening here is we're installing a patch originally made for the X-Trident Bell 412 to temporarily work while XP11 is in beta. And because the 429 author was allowed to use the original 412 plugin in this helicopter, the same patch works. And it's all in those .xpl files, as far as I know.

January 19, 20179 yr Thank you Paraffin. That makes sense now. Do you also need to delete the geforce plugin?
January 19, 20179 yr I don't use the geforce plugin so I don't know if that's a conflict or not. It does work here without it, for what that's worth. :smile: X-Plane and Microsoft Flight Simulator on Windows 10 i7 6700 4.0 GHz, 32 GB RAM, GTX 1660 ti, 1920x1200 monitor
