**Bug description: I am reporting this issue that I am seeing in the current beta so it can hopefully be avoided in the final release of the SU. Video demonstration follows below with an additional question regarding the definition of the default weight for pilot/copilot or passengers.

I have logged the issue in our backlog about the copilot spawing at the exterior with a weight of 0 set in the EFB.
Regarding the settings of the default weight in the EFB for copilot passenger etc, you could be able to change it in the Station load factory mass section.
For example, this is what we have in the DA62 sample for the passenger preset :
thank you very much. In case it has been missed please make sure that the weight reset to zero is logged as well.
Regarding the default weight I am a bit confused. The documentation for the implementation of pilot and copilot specifically says to put the weight of the payload station in the flight model to zero.
" When creating the stations, the weight input for the station load should be set to 0, as it will be modified by the pilot and copilot themselves in the simulation to reflect the actual weight being distributed in the area."
You can find it under the section weight distribution. So this seems to be a mistake in the documentation? I have tried to define the weight via the payload station but somehow it remained at zero. I will try that again.
Edit: It seems to work now for the pilot, copilot weight remains at zero, probably due to the reset bug I have shown in my video.
yes I can confirm that the bug is fixed, thanks a lot.
I have just noticed one additional aspect regarding the pilot visibility. If I switch to copilot view while being in the cockpit I can then see my pilot avatar. However if I switch to an outside view and then back to the copilot view, the pilot is not visible anymore. Should I create an additional bug report for this? It is probably not intended to be like this?
