How???

Hi all,
I have downloaded the AP Designs Harrier FA-2, and I can't get it to hover. Instead, when I vector the thrust, it tips the nose downwards to the ground, regardless that I pull up.
For a while I have vectored it once (by pressing F5 once) but even then I have to fight the aircraft as it noses down slightly.
Thanks ;)

FS dynamics wont allow the harrier to hover. However you can fly slowly forward sideways and backwards. When are you rotating the nozzels? if your doing it at high speed you will fly off in weird directions.

AHA!!
Thanks for filling me in that MS is too restrictive, and that I need to vector later Craig. Much appreciated!! ;D

best bet, and charlie will be able to better help with procedures. But Harrier pilots will slow to around 120 knots i believe and engage the first stage and use it to slow down a little, then the next stage a little slower and so on. But Charlie might know the procedures better.

lol in FS you can get down to 40kts without vectoring in the harrier.. which kinda bites...
