Ah that explains it
As I've mentioned before, I'm not happy with the way v5 has been released. There are some small features that have had some improvements and some new models added....that's all fine and dandy. I'm not happy that there seems to be at least 1 model helicopter missing, the Smiroch (or however you spell it). It was in the Performance helicopter section. I'm also not happy that they have changed the governor mode on v5. While using v4, I could set 3 different head speeds and switch between them all with the three position switch on my DX8. Now, v5 only has one head speed. I've also noticed that no matter what throttle curve I have my tx set to, once I get passed 20-25% on my throttle stick, the helicopter goes to full throttle. On top of all that, the helicopter sounds "ill" when it's spooling up. Absolutely horrible.
I have contacted Horizon Hobby about this. They directed to Phoenix Sim Support and I left them a message in regard to my complaints. If nothing gets done about this before March 16, 2014, I'll be purchasing Real Flight 7 via this new promo that Real Flight is offering:

Just downgrade back to 4.0.q. All problems solved.

Hi Derek, i'm just curious, when you installed the v5, when promted to, did you select keep or discard you v4 settings?
I honestly don't remember, lol.
