@Poldi: describe your PC system - CPU? Graphics card? Driver version? Main and graphics memory size?

In fact there's not much information available about the graphics chipset. I have an older Atom-netbook and the graphics performance is really low, only Heli-X v4 runs smooth enough to be usable there. I also have to choose a low detail helicopter model. Can you tell a bit more exactly what graphics chipset the 1051 has? Use e.g. GPU-Z (http://www.gpu-z.de/) or CPU-Z (http://www.cpuid.com/softwares/cpu-z.html) to find out

Hello poldi,

as already suspected, your graphics chipset's performance seems too low. I only found a german review, but like the GMA945 in my Atom netbook yours seems to be a chipset optimized for 2D -> smooth video playback. Try Heli-X v4 and see if performance is better. You may also try to run some 3D benchmark yourself. And please don't see it too negative - I have seen more than one notebook's graphics chip being destroyed by too much heat. With the Intel solution this surely won't happen.

Have success...

Hello Thomas,

that is a pity. I surely did not purchase this tablet as a graphics gaming engine, however, I was thinking it would have enough umpf since it is an actual design...

I will go try for version 4. What am I missing with respect to version 6?

Thanks for all diagnosis,
Poldi

Quite a difference I must admit. Smooth shadows are missing for example. v4 has different airports and different models (quite a lot!!). The thing that annoys most is not a Heli-X problem, though: small screen size of your notebook, as 11 inches is really small for simulation purposes (do you have an external monitor??).

Have success :)
