Eurocopter AS-365N2 Dauphin II for Fly! II Version 2.0
=======================================================
Note 1 : The auto pilot is not that easy to use. We would have preferred to prepare a complete manual, but due to external commitments we
just release a quick flight note (doc format) showing all the features in an easy way.
We strongly recommand to take a look to real documentation if you want to enjoy the simulation.
All the features work : if you can't get one make sure to follow the right procedure. In some cases, the features are speed dependent.
See the quick notes values.

Note 2 : the pdf manual is from version 1.0 . Some informations can be out of date.

INSTALLATION
============

- If you had previously downloaded version 1.00, remove all the file related to the dauphin
- Copy the AS-365N2 folder in the aircraft folder
- Copy all the plugin dll in the modules/pc folder
  (notice that you may have yet some dlls, perhaps with a lesser version number : in this case remove old dlls and replace with those shipped here)

- If you are using a joystick or flight yoke, we strongly recommend that you assign buttons to all the trim controls. You can do so in the helicopter keys menu, click on the “Show all Keys” button.
- The PC version comes with a working searchlight. The searchlight can be aimed using the keyboard or joystick buttons. You will find the entries under Global Keys in the Buttons and Axes window.
- The PC version also allows you to assign a key to extend and retract the landing gear. The default “G” key does not work for helicopters due to a bug or a design limitation. Make sure you assign this function to something other than the “G” key or else you won’t be able to operate the gear with the “G” key in fixed-wing aircraft.
- In this version, the digital speed indicator is showing the indicated speed, not the autopilot speed select since there is no autopilot.
- In real life, the "trim indicators" are for the AFCS/autopilot galvanometers, in this version they just show the trim so it's easier to get the neutral trim for hover, landing or takeoff.
