    Yes, me too, the wheels don't seem to turn in flight, at least the left one. It would be cool if it did turn from flight ✈️ I never tried to start the plane, so it was a very useful video. Nice flying, Cheers, Slan

    Thanks. Perhaps using someof the "1935" airports and landing on grass may have increased the immersion. I did note the tailwheel spinning before it contacted the runways. Perhaps it was just the airstream. Or it may be a minor bug. I will need to set up a profile for my Bravo to handle 3 engines. I also have the Fokker VII so that will be useful there as well.

      Yes, it would have been a much more era appropriate flight to use a grass strip. The tail wheel spinning might be from my replay tool as it does weird things sometimes. But it also might be a bug. Enjoy!

    Hi, great video, thanks! Very nice description of the Gyroscope operation, which is not quite intuitive. One comment about the landing lights, you must turn them on right before take off, and turn them off once airborne, otherwise they draw a lot of current and will discharge the battery fast - generator is not powerful enough to support the drain-Another comment on the inertial starters (floor), after pushing one down, you must wait until it pops up before turning solenoid on. Time to pop up varies randomly between 10 and 15 seconds; if you turn the solenoid on before inertial pops up then start might fail.

      Thanks! I also forgot to even turn on the generator until about 20 minutes in 😂

      Two little switches on the center console near the pilots knees. One for the door and one for the truck.

    Wonderful video! I did not know about the three panel options. I missed it perhaps. How do you enable the pickup, and open the main and baggage doors? I saw a full size Trimotor in a museum, and it was amazing peering inside of the airplane that, even before the iconic DC3, started civil aviation along with the Fokker, its Dutch cousin from Europe.
    I have an Xbox, and I set up a pannable pax/cabin view accessible by a button combo from my controller that lets me switch between it and the flight deck view. I was able to set up custom wing views on all my default and add-on aircraft this way.
    I enjoy the unique autopilot, quite nice on such an old and iconic aircraft.
    Also, I've noted in modern panel mode, I can switch on the autopilot by keystroke and track a saved flightplan, and also lock in the rate of climb once trimmed until at my cruising altitude. Not realistic, but fun to enjoy as a passenger might on a cross country flight.

      Great info thanks!! There are two switches on the center console. Left hand side down where the pilots knees would be. Those turn on/off the static elements.

    @Spocket Simulation, This is NOT a good deal, EVEN for free. I installed it last night, and all I got, was the Trimotor model, with SKIS'S. Every livery with the model, with SKIS'S. How often do you fly a plane, with SKIS? Did not get the Trimotor, with regular landing gear (tires) The Marketplace, never gives, you any quality, when you get it for FREE.

    SO AWESOME...Had no idea and glad I came online to watch some parts of FlightSimExpo 2023 stream (messing with issues with audio getting this part working...no big deal) ....but seeing this was FREE, limited time! Totally jumped onto MSFS and grabbed it. Will fly it in a few minutes, but this made my morning.
