Poptart's post in controls indicator symbology was marked as the answer
The red X is the trim center location. The white diamond is the location of your joystick input relative to the trim. With a traditional joystick with springs the diamond will always be over the X when you take your hands off the stick. The green plus sign is the output to the rotors after SCAS augmentation. The authority of the SCAS system is bound by the light shaded box. If the SCAS system isn't augmenting your inputs it will always stay attached to the diamond.

Poptart's post in External fuel tank selection issue was marked as the answer
On the fuel page (A/C -> Fuel) you need to put in the estimated amount of fuel in the tanks via the XFER button in gallons (one tank is 230 gallons). Once that is done, make sure all the aux tanks are selected and the dot next to the word is filled in.
I haven't had a problem with external tanks.

Poptart's post in VMC Takeoff and VMC Level Acceleration Takeoff - 90-knot climb attitude was marked as the answer
Attitude is the direction of the nose relative to the horizon. A 90-knot attitude is the amount of forward angle you have on the helicopter that gives you 90 knots. If you maintain this angle, changing the collective will only cause you to climb or descend (not accelerate). At 90 knots your stub wings are level with the ground and you are in your most efficient flight regime.
