Hello Georg, You are right and probably, Maik could give us some better tuning. However when doing the H-21 FDM i could notice that we get some diff about the yaw reaction, according to the values and position of the ballast (with respect in any case of the CG position), and the best we get with yaw gives the best on the ground position, i mean the helicopter does not slide on the side. I do not pretend that the H-21 is right, it is only a remark :) . I am working on the HUP in order to get the same result.
