Need help, no support

I can’t seem to add a r44 to even get started??? Any help with this?

Good app. Small things missing for safty

It's a simple and straightforward app that does the trick. Here are the things I would add:
1. A warning about minimum pilot weight, since the manual clearly states that a solo pilot must weight at least 150 lb (68kg).
2. A warning in case someone mistakenly put a solo pilot in the left seat which is not allowed.
3. Ability to enter pilot, passenger and baggage weights in KG instead of lb for easier use by European pilots

Super handy

App works flawlessly, great for quick w/b calculations. Would be awesome if there was an option to use the metric system though

Works well

Simple app but gets the job done effectively, easily. Quick calculations with quick visual results.

Imperial

Any chance you can use kg's, cm's for us of those not in the US
