Known Problems

The following are known problems:

  1. The EICAS shows up for the second engine, even though this is a one engine aircraft.

  2. The rotor blades don't droop when stopped.  However, the blades on the aircraft are quite stiff, so they don't droop much on the real aircraft either.

  3. The tail rotor cannot be independently deactivated.  On the real aircraft, at low speeds, the tail rotor is turned off to eliminate the deck handling hazard.

  4. The autopilot isn't stable in yaw at high speeds.  Above about 200 knots, the aircraft starts to oscillate in yaw.  The oscillations do not damp out.
