Ok, so on the FSOne site, dated today, March 13, 2008, there is a 1.0.9 patch.
However, I THOUGHT I installed the same patch months ago. There is also one with the same name dated November 26, 2007.
What gives?
Also, I bought the "Hangar Pack 1" to get the Trex 450 simulation, yet the model flies NOTHING like a Trex 450. It barely flies with any stability at all. In fact it's so spastic, it makes the Blade CP model seem docile. I don't understand what's going on with this software. The Trex 450 is completely unstable. I use the stock, FSOne TacCon controller. It's been calibrated repeatedly. FSOne's gone wacky. Neall
You should install the helicopter patch, it does improve some helicopters. It does nothing for the T-Rex 450, which as you say flies very poorly.
I bought the Hanger pack 1 as well, specifically for the T-Rex 450, which is the helicopter I own. I gave up on the FS-One version after trying various fixes. I fly the Voyager 50 in the sim, it flies much closer to the real T-Rex 450. In fact, I believe the Blade CP flies closer to the real T-Rex 450.
It's too bad that FS-One isn't being improved. It started out with lots of promise, but there haven't been any meaningful improvements since it was released. I'm sure G4 outsells it by a large margin - I use to recommend FS-One to my fellow club members, now I tell them not to buy it.
