Hi, got both RW162F and the Jett. I realized center of gravity is way out of order in both helos and u can not influence that no matter what u put. The 162F is extremely inestable even on easy flight model. I have tried in MSFS 2020 to see if it was a MSFS 2024 problem but happens the same. What is going on?
Maybe it only works in legacy mode…
Regards
The CG displayed in the in game panels have no bearing on the actual aircraft. Stay within the weight envelope and you will remain in CG. Legacy/Modern has no effect as we are using a custom flight model and not MSFS built in one. Try changing the artificial stability in Helimangaer. Keep lowering it as you become familiar with the flight characteristics. Helicopters are not easy to fly. Learn a small amount at a time.
Also calibrate the joystick slider so it matches your actual joystick. This will help a great deal.

Thanks. That is what I was trying. But EASY mode doesn’t work. It does in the other models. My plan was to reduce stability gradually once was comfortable until I eventually reach realistic values, but I honestly don’t know if the stability values do anything here…
Flown the b47g and the 206 and weren’t that. And as I said, easy mode works on the others, even the jetexec. So u know, something is not right… I checked the version in dev mode and is 1.20.0.7 if not mistaken, so should be updated. Is a marketplace version so maybe there is a problem with the helimanager and the stability values.
Hi, another question. I have been testing the jetexec. The throttle has values from 20%-52% acording to dev mode (Throttlegrip GRIPTHROTTLEPILOT). I have set it to a propeller axis, as suggested. But it doesnt start in 0. Have tried to decrease propeller with a button but doesnt go below 20%. It always starts hot and I dont think I can inject the maximum fuel. What is happening? Thx.
The jetexec has an automatic throttle. The mode is duplicated in software and the twist grip merely goes from ground to flight idle.

Thx. Do u mind telling me what throttle (grip or should u use collective if is automated) and how much should u do in the cold start? Read the manual, show a video and not working for me. RPM just spikes to 100%.
I do battery, fuel valve, fuel pump, starter hold, then I have tried a) no throttle but rpm spikes after 35% direct to 100% and b) giving a bit of throttle at 15% rpm with the same result. By throttle I mean the grip.
What am I doing wrong? It should go slower and not direct to 100%…
Thx again
