Turbine helicopter realism

Dodosim.com is brand new and wishes to announce an exciting innovation for FS9. we would like to submit the following statement.

Regards,
Mark Adams and Steve Hanley

DODOSIM  are pleased to announce their first release for FS2004 Helicopter pilots. The REALSTART 206 Engine System.

The REALSTART 206 Engine System emulates the real world start parameters and engine management of the Bell 206b Jetranger and provides authentic flight behaviours. It is the desktop version of our pilot turbine conversion trainer.

There has never been an accurate turbine helicopter start sequence/engine management sequence in any of Microsoft's flight simulators until now. This product is the result of 2 years research and development, thousands of programming hours, high quality artwork and extensive testing and revisions.

The extremely detailed start systems are affected by factors such as ambient air temperature, altitude, wind direction, battery load/condition/temperature, the time since the engine was last shut down and so on.

The heart of the package is the specially designed switchgear and gauges; highly realistic Tq, TOT,N1, N2/Nr, collective/throttle, circuit breakers, warning annunciator and avionics that work in harmony with outside factors and pilot input.

Engine too hot? spin the starter and watch the temperature drop, but spin it for too long and battery temperature will rise.
No fuel pressure? maybe the boost pump circuit breakers are not pushed in.
Released the starter before 58% N1? You just had a Hotstart and cost the owner about $100,000 dollars!
