IMPORTANT - FOR BETA 3.5 ONWARDS

*** There has been a change to the throttle control axis. For your throttle to work you must assign your throttle axis mapping to "Wing Sweep". You can create a profile for the 206 so it will not effect any other aircraft. This will allow the governor to work fully automatically and not switched as before. You may have to also choose the reversed option.

*** We have added "force trim" and associated commands, again for this to function you must first load the 206, then go to joystick / button settings and assign as needed.

*** If a switch does not function in the cockpit, then make sure you have the Battery and or Avionics switches on.

*** Check the weight balance and fuel prior to flight - Ideal weight is full tanks plus 340lbs payload.
