Sim Operation Remarks
1. Make sure your controls are correctly configured for Helicopter Flight. Check the [Recommended Hardware Configuration](/miltech-simulations-mh60/product-information/recommended-hardware-configuration.md)
2. Make sure your hardware has all the necessary keybinds configured. Check the [Keybinds Guide](/miltech-simulations-mh60/product-information/recommended-hardware-configuration/keybinds-guide.md)
3. **Rotor Brake:** Keybind must be correctly configured, as otherwise it may interrupt the execution of other functions, or result in an incorrect activation.
`ROTOR BRAKE`
Configure keybind for press+hold (Input repetition must be enabled). You may also use `TOGGLE ROTOR BRAKE` to lock it into position (ON/OFF without requiring input repetition)
