Super Sounds Upgrade
We have over 75% of our helos operational for
FS2004.
The big item is that the helos come reconfigured
for the Super Sounds System.
This means that only the SOUND file needs to be
downloaded.
Do not load any of the optional AIR / CFG files!!
Also the Super Sounds have been reconfigured to
not have the repeat sound.
Most of what we have tested shows positive
results.
Your mileage may vary based upon your computer
hardware.

A Service Kit for the Bell 412 helos is available for all
owners of there birds.
The helos have been modified on the panel for:
- Search Light operational from Collective Head
- Landing Light has a 3 Way position for RETRACT / OFF,
EXTEND / OFF. EXTEND / ON from Collective Head
- Fire Suppression will now be controlled from Collective
Head
- Rescue attachment DEPLOY / RETRACT and Load LOCK /
RELEASE will be controlled from Collective Head
- Winch positions for RAISE / HOLD / LOWER are controlled
from Collective Head
These are not necessary to fly your current helos
but the added features and ease of control will definitely make it a
desired add-on.
Some of the additional releases coming up will make it
very apparent why the up grades take place.
And as always ..........Service Kits are free!
Just send Razor or me a note on your order.
If you have any further questions or notes please contact me.
