Nemeth Designs AS332 Super Puma

Hello everyone,

I have an issue with the Super Puma from Nemeth... The throttle is responsive, but the helicopter is underpowered, it just won't get off the ground. I went on Nemeth's website, downloaded a patch that said was made to fix the issue. So far it hasn't worked...   ::)
Has that happened to anyone else?
Thanks

Answering my own question, in case anyone else has this problem.

To get the helo off the ground, after engines are running: there are two yellow levers coming down from the overhead panel in the middle of the VC. Push both yellow levers forward. Enjoy the flight!

New issue with Nemeth Super Puma.
After 5-10 minutes of flight, I experience massive loss of rpm and it is impossible to recover. Nothing on the panels show any emergencies, it's like it just decided to crap out and go to sleep...  >:( I tried to perform an autorotation but I just can't pull it off.
My install of the Super Puma is patched with the two updates found on Nemeth Designs' website. One of those updates said it had fixed the rpm issue... obviously not.
Has anyone had this issue before, and if yes, is there a way to get around it or even fix it?
Thank you for your help

No problem with the Puma.
Be sure to push the yellow levers at the middle forward , optionally
kick out some personnel :) uh, I mean reduce some fuel weight.
HTH.
