My Granddad worked for the Shorts brothers and helped design an build the Sunderland. This year actually marks 40 yrs after he died. RIP Granddad James.

The default prop pitch is supposed to be neutral so that you can vary the amount of thrust provided by the props (up/down keys) without having to throttle the engines up and down. As to not taking off it will you just have to be a bit careful at first. I found that rapidly increasing the prop pitch (up/down) with the props pitched up will get it into the air just fine. It is a little finicky but not difficult at all after a few tries.

Wow this useless thing, it doesn't get even close to enough speed for takeoff.

I have found the issue: Your default prop pitch is set to neutral, and yes, i was sitting in the left seat. I'm not an idiot. Fixing is simple, go to select --> props --> and the option is right there.

I did experiment with them but as it works without them (if you're carefull) I preferred keeping the aesthetics cleaner than having some massive rudders at the front

Adding some control fins or rudders to the front would help not to dive in to underwater.

I can understand why it might be slightly confusing as i forgot to label up which seat was the default (e.g. Pilot and Co-Pilot which I can fix easily enough)

B3N [author] 8 Jul, 2020 @ 8:08am

The left hand seat is the default seat. to use the right seat you will need to switch seats using the switch on the instrument panel. Its works fine for me anyway.

Confirmed: Collective does nothing.
I have held the button both ways. Some detective work of my own has not been fruitfull in finding anything directly related. The new warning system has found some obvious errors in a few breakers but i'm betting it has nothing to do with it.
Maybe it has to do with some of the logic connections? There's quite a few of em and i can see why someone would easily miss a error.
