2 INSTALLATION AND SET-UP

2.1 REQUIREMENTS

The DodoSim 206 FSX requires the following:

•

Microsoft Windows XP SP2/SP3 or Vista 32/64 bit

•

Microsoft Flight Simulator X SP2, Acceleration or Flight Simulator X Gold

2.2 INSTALLATION

To install the software, double-click the Setup.exe program to run the auto-installer. The helicopter will

then be installed in the “Microsoft Flight Simulator X\SimObjects\Rotorcraft” sub-directory.

Important note: The installation path as offered by default during installation should be verified before

proceeding.

The installer places files within FSX’s own main effects and gauge folders so it is imperative that the

path to the main FSX folder is given.

The first time Flight Simulator X is run after installing the DodoSim 206 FSX it will prompt the user to

accept the unknown module “DodosimFSX206.gau”:

It is possible that the dialog box might be minimised if you have used other applications while waiting for

FSX to load. If FSX appears to have stopped loading, look for the dialog on the task bar:

Select “Run” on the dialog. FSX will then prompt you to choose whether to designate this module as

“trusted”. Select “Yes”, otherwise you will be prompted each time the file is loaded.
