Installation

EC 135 V5 will be installed almost as any other aircraft in X-Plane 11: Unzip the archive to any sub folder of the aircraft folder in your X-Plane installation. 

Setting up your system for EC 135 V5

The following settings can only be made if the EC 135 V5 is already loaded.

Assure your controls (joystick, pedals etc.) are calibrated. Assign the axes of your controls using the example of a Saitek X52 in the following figures. 

Be sure to have NOT mapped any other axes. By no means a thotte axis must be assigned.

EC 135 V5 plugin will manipulate the general sensitivity and artificial stability settings of your joystick. When going back to another aircraft your own preferences will be restored. Please do NOT change the settings made by the plugin in order to obtain a realistic controls response!

Moreover it is very useful to have important functions on the buttons of the joystick. Some of them are X-Plane's own commands, others are custom commands generated by the EC 135 V5 plugin. Assignment takes place also in X-Plane's joystick settings page. Absolutely minimum required to control the EC 135 V5 are the following commands: 

• BEEP TRIM functions realized by X-Plane's trim commands
• FORCE TRIM RELEASE button
• CDS/AUDIO RESET Button

Refer to Controls explanation to learn more about the typical cyclic stick buttons in order to improve your flight feeling.
