Well, since the nav radios are nonfunctional ( including keyboard commands) the model is useless it was built nicely and I would keep it if the radios worked, and frankly I don't have the time to rework the cfg file.

    A very, and I mean VERY, good download but there's two problems I've picked up on. First the landing gear flinches when you get near the ground while they're retracted and two the propellers are black circles when activated. Other than that it flies like a beaut.

    Good model except I had the same issue with the propellers being just black circles when engine is on.

    It's a good download, except the propellers are just black circles, and I would have liked a Q400 cockpit and sound.
