Noob question : How do I start the simulation with a landed, shutdown helicopter

Hi,

I would like to train start up of the Black shark, however I couldn't find a way to start the simulation with the helicopter on the ground and ready to be started up. I'm using the first training mission but I'm a bit fed up with the instruments description after a few hearing :)

Watch this and make a list. May have to view it a few times. Also if you do a search of the forums, you'll find links to a start-up check list. Doesn't take too long before it's second nature.

Good luck, and enjoy!

There is an option in the mission editor, you must place the flyable player helo to "take off from parking". If helo is set to be on the runway, it will be running already.

In some missions you start on a FARP. You can load these in the mission editor, choose your flight and set it to "Take off from parking". You can play the mission from the editor.

You can halt the training missions at any time (press escape) and take control without having to wait until Matt says you can...

I think this is what you mean?

Cheers!
