somebody should tell them the paddles are on the wrong way round ! I'm guessing the person that made the model does not fly helicopters ?

the piro rate, collective "pop" and cyclics are to fast IMO too.

I found them kind of slow. I just thought it was because I haven't flown a 500. I bumped the motor from .9 kw to 1.3 kw and it seems a little better now. Is this too unrealistic?

Transparent tail blades? Hmmm.
Maybe I should do that to my pushrod? I can't get it perfectly down the guides because the rod hangs 10mm below the boom at the servo and 13mm below at the bell crank.

But seriously, I'm very happy to have a 500 in the sim. And right now, it looks exactly like most of ours.:rolling
