Thank you very much for converting this aircraft from FSX to MSFS! This is yet another plane that is in the WAAAM collection that I will be creating a video for, thanks to your efforts. Here are the WAAAM planes:

p.s. Like the Aeronca C3 I can only get a minimum rpm of ~500, making descent and landings difficult. Also, the parking brakes work, but regular brakes do not have any affect.

I made a short video of the robin.
You can see the toe brakes (left and right) as well as the throttle.
If I have time wed. morning, ill make a vid of both planes illustrating that I dont see
any issues.
Have you checked your calibrations?

With the sim update 6, we lost the shining effect on legacy planes. Will there be an update for this?

Love the plane, and it looks great during the automatic taxi phase, but the engine dies right after I take control, while I sit at the end of the runway. Ctrl E doesn't restart the engine. MSFS and my other planes appear to behaving normally. I'm not running any aircraft apps in the background (like AirLandFS). Please advise, thanks!

Hi Don, Eric Here Again.
Yes I know of Dave Garwoods Auster, I Personally Prefer the Dave Mlolyneaux Austers I do not know why but I just do, so the question is the same. Is it possible to gain permission to convert, the Molyneaux Auster J1 Autocrat from FSX to MSFX 2020, Thank you for your help,
Cheers Eric

I was thinking the Molyneaux Auster was a 2004 model....
I really don't enjoy involving myself with 2004 models unless they are really good.
