I'm not a heli expert, but it may be that your blades aren't turned properly... I can't remember where the control is, it its on the throttle

I don't use hele's ither, but I have had this issue once with the defualt bell 206..

What I did was make sure throttle is 100% (not collective), and then go from 100% collective to 0% then back to 100% that should give you power...

The problem is if you start with 100% collective, the engine doesn't have the power to get the rotors to full speed.. bringing collective down to 0%, and making sure throttle is at 100% will give the rotors a chance to get the RPMs up.. Then you should (hopefully) be able to fly...

Hope this helps.

The trouble is....

The Propeller is in the wrong place!

It is up on top of the roof, beating the ground, instead of out in front, on the nose, pulling you along!... Wink

Not sure about that fix, but over on Hovercontrol, there is a engine surge fix for the stock EH101, which helps with the constant engine surges.

You did hit "Cntl+F4" to make sure the throttles are in the "FLY" position? Many add-ons require you to advance your throttle (collective) slightly to make sure your rotor is at 100%.
