Quick Start:
1) get in the vehicle and turn active circuit breaker
2) Press [3] "Start engine" and set throttle lever to 1
3) Wait till the rpm on turbine rise higher than 1000 rpm after that engine starter must be turned off
4) look in front of the vehicle and press [1] to change the vehicle control to mouse control.
NOTE: in this control mode (W/S collective A/D roll axises with resetting.) | X axis yaw Y axis pitch
For multiplying your speed press [4] button
when using full throttle note that it works by using the invincible tail rotor that was place higher than mass center wich means when using it the nose will pitch down. Also the main rotor will recieve less torque wich means it will be harder to pull up huey on high speeds. note that as it can be fatal/or used for landing purpose.
when flying huey it is very obvious force of counter rotation appears shown as CR wich pulls the yaw control more to the left. It was compensated by offsets in MC but it doesn't mean that you won't feel it.
As gyro works with PID wich is basicly "custom control function" wich get's to the meant Number it self as it have a proceed variable.
What you can face is control loss for a few seconds. if you trying to pitch the nose down and roll to the left. It seems that PID thinks that it is still Counter rotation force but much powerful so it will set the collective to 0 and then try to counter rotate it by using roll, but it will make things worse. There is also same thing with the tail rotor but as this one is much smaller it will show up much rarer than situation with main rotor. You can prevent that from happening by using less collective. Release collective axis from time to time.
Press the W axis and realise it.
Landing:
the fastest way in my practice was using this tactic for quick landing.
1) find the place where to land.
2) approach this place from the left/right side with nose forwarding ~ 30 degrees from that place to land.
3) as most of the time flights are performed with [4] full-throttle cruise mode button active. use it to reduce the lift force on rotors and fly in a small circle to reduce your speed. Don't forget to reduce the collective and mostly use the mouse to control the vehicle.
4)When you are close to land turn off [4] full-throttle cruise mode and you are now on the ground.
