Hi Vladimir,

I don't know of any coaxial helicopter in flightgear.
What kind do you need? If you just need any kind of coaxial helicopter: 
take the bo105, remove the tail rotor, make a copy of the main rotor, 
cut of two blades at each rotor, change the rotation direction of one 
rotor and add the yaw control to each collectives.

But if you need a simulation of a small rc-coaxial helicopter you have 
to do much more, and don't forget the small mechanical gyro for the 
stabilization....

But if you just want to check your autopilot stabilization algorithm: 
just use any fg-helicopter, e.g. the bo105 and one other with very 
different flight characteristic, e.g. the alouette2 or the s58 and 
check, if your algorithm works with both (with some adjusting of 
coefficients).
