# Aircraft Settings
Aircraft settings are generally controlled on the H145 tablet, inside the Aircraft app.
# H145 Tablet Setup
The tablet has a new set of settings for the native flight model. Open the tablet -> Aircraft
(app) -> Setup
(page).
Setting | Description |
---|---|
Aircraft DamageOn or Off | This setting controls the built-in damage model which impacts the aircraft engines, systems and flight model. |
Gameplay ModeRealistic or Arcade | The Arcade mode will not allow over-torque on the collective, the FLI limit will be automatic. |
# Cyclic Control Settings
Setting | Description |
---|---|
Cyclic ControlNo-Springs or Centering-Springs | The Centering-Springs setting is intended for joysticks with a centering spring. The aircraft trim position will be approximated so the joystick is always centered to maintain the current flight condition.The No-Springs setting requires you to deflect the cyclic as the aircraft moves into cruise, or you may take advantage of the center-displacement binding. |
SAS Stability Level-100 to +100 | This slider controls the relative stability of the SAS. If you have a full cyclic with a long extension, you may prefer values at approximately -75. If you have a joystick, the default value of 0, and for game controllers a value of +100 may be preferred. This setting is mainly to compensate for different controllers. Avoid settings lower than -80 as they are unrealistically destabilized. |
Deadzone1 to 100 | This slider controls the size of the deadzone which is used to determine HANDS ON detection. This setting should be as low as possible such that when releasing the controller, HANDS ON is reliably not displayed. |
Follow-Up TrimOff Only Hover Only Cruise Both | Follow-Up trim will enable you to avoid using trim release for some cyclic manipulations. Hover domain is defined as less than 30 knots airspeed. Trim Release is preferred to depending on follow-up trim. |
AFCS OverrideDual Input Autopilot only | Changing to Autopilot only will prevent any input from the cyclic when in ATT mode or any upper mode. This setting is intended for users that lack a friction lock and also lack a spring on their cyclic. This setting allows use of the AFCS by using beep trim and Trim Release. |
Center Displace Reset Time | This setting applies only to H:H145_SDK_CYCLIC_FORCE_TRIM_DISPLACE_CENTER Cyclic Control - Displace Cyclic Center (Force Trim) and controls how long to wait before reconnecting the user flight controls. |
# Tail Rotor Control Settings
Setting | Description |
---|---|
SAS Stability Level-100 to +100 | This slider controls the relative stability of the yaw SAS. It will be easier to hold a heading in hover with a higher value. This setting is mainly to compensate for different controllers. Avoid settings lower than -80 as they are unrealistically destabilized. |
Deadzone1 to 100 | This slider controls the size of the deadzone which is used to determine FEET ON detection. This setting should be as low as possible such that when releasing the controller, FEET ON is reliably not displayed. |
# Collective Control Settings
Setting | Description |
---|---|
SAS Stability Level-100 to +100 | This slider controls the relative stability of the collective SAS. It will be easier to hold height over the ground in hover with a higher value. This setting is mainly to compensate for different controllers. Avoid settings lower than -80 as they are unrealistically destabilized. |
Step Size (Keyboard) | This setting applies only to button/keyboard collective inputs. It will control how large the response of the collective for each button press. |
