And the outside of plane smooth of course and good fps around 50s, some stutters from time to time, and to the instruments heavy stutters panning the view, and a fixed view a 30% less in fps, and glass options in LOW. Is it normal? all people the same?. The rest of aircrafts are the same I think without tested well, but much less.

Ok Here is the issue.... Trying to fly the 172 G-1000 plane.....when I get into the cockpit the plane takes off full throttle all by itself. The throttle quadrant is at zero yet it goes to full throttle. I was thinking it might be a reverse axis issue, however this happens with nothing plugged in but the keyboard and mouse. I have eliminated all of my hardware that I use to fly and it still does this. Please help!!!!! Thank you in advance!! The hardware I use is Saitek Yoke and throttle quad......and like I stated above even when they are unplugged the same thing happens. Even happens with other planes. Kungfoogrip

Last night, wind 110 at 20 knots, I got assigned runway 28 (exactly, perfectly the wrong runway), and this even though I had put in the approach in the world map flight planner prior to launching the flight. I just landed runway 10 anyway, but it seems I get assigned the wrong runway at least two times out of 3.

For you guys who are curious about shared cockpit, there's a github project called YourControl. I haven't had the chance to try it out yet, but it looks promising!

ATC gave me a speed restriction, “Daher 930 keep speed below 210 knots.” I was, wha? Wha? Never has default ATC given me a speed restriction! Is this new? Anyone experienced it before? Am I hearing things? I was on IFR approach into KISM descending to 2000 ft from FL110. Below 10,000 ft. and at 243 knots so I wasn’t busting 250 under 10. I’m extremely happy 😃— but I’m still not sure if it’s real...🤔

Not sure if this is the correct place for this post. My problem with autopilot on the TBM-930 is when I start from a parking place at any airport. After taking off and engaging the autopilot it will not start or join the flight plan course. It starts on a different course and continues on that straight line course, ignoring the flight plan. If I then start the flight from a runway at the same airport, autopilot behaves normally. The behavior is reproducible with any airport. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Hi All, I have a high end PC with a RTX 3080 and all runs very smooth. But sometimes on major airports the FPS are decreasing the longer you are at he airport. Example: At EDDF the FPS are 35. During taxi to the gate it's decreasing to 5 FPS. When saving the flight at that position and load the flight from that exact position it's back to 35 FPS !!! I also saw this behaviour at PARIS CDG T1. Anyone seeing this before ?

Not sure if this is just my system or not as I cannot find any reference to it in this forum. But, when I use the VL3 (or any plane with the Rotax), the engine sounds like it sputters. It's as if the mixture is not set correctly. Has anyone else experienced this?

Hi guys I think this is a new problem or at least its never happened before the latest hotfix. Quite simply if I press ESC which by default is "toggle Pause" when I press ESC again to return to the sim the TBM engine just rolls back and dies?? I've checked my key bindings which is the obvious culprit and I only have ESC mapped to toggle pause. Anyone else seeing this problem? I flew the Bonanza earlier with no such issues and I have to press ESC quite a lot due to demands of kids and wife lol! EDIT: ok offensive initials not allowed does it in the Kingair as well! Let the testing commence!!! EDIT 1: ok rebinded toggle pause to P, same affect. Now ju…

Hi guys! Update 5 introduced some changes to the sensitivity. Unfortunately all it did was introducing some weird new input response curves. While the actual problem seems to be more of aerodynamic nature. My guess would be a problem with calculating dynamic pressure on control surfaces. Planes usually are less responsive during landing / flaring due to lower speed resulting in lower dynamic pressure. In MSFS however it feels like balancing eggs. You should be able to easily control the plane on linear response curves. Unfortunately MS / ASOBO has moved the "sensitivtiy" bug thread with over 200 votes into the "resolved bugs" section. If you want to co…

Hi Guys I can finally get the system to start running again and now after I've loaded up the 955 mb store update I now have an error message coming up before I get to the point where it checks for updates. I know they were going to do a hot fix so wondered if it was because of this. It advises Access to the content servers is currently available. Please ensure you have an active internet connection, and try again later. Please visit zendesk for more info. Well i have the internet, so is anyone else not able to get in/update at the moment or am i just the lucky one. Many thanks Brendon

So being from UK was looking forward to introduction of good old KGs on the flight planner. However it also changes the reported wind speed on the world map to KM/H instead of Kts? I'm no expert but not sure if this is correct? So to put it blunt I want to load my aircraft by KG but wind speed reported as 224/32 Km/h means nothing to me??? This is a bit silly because no metar is ever reported in Km/h its always kts as far as I'm aware....

Not sure if you noticed, but if land on some 10 degrees slope, turn to either side( so the wheels are 90 degrees to the uphill) and put parking park, the plane slowly crawling up-hill.

In previous versions, the motion blur setting only affects the drone camera I believe. It's only use was for blurring the background when taking photos. But with the new update #5 that came out, does this setting now take over that? Because I also notice that when I pan really fast inside the cockpit view that I get motion blur as well. Before the motion blur would only show up when using the drone camera to take photos. So does this motion blur setting still apply to the drone camera? Because I still want the blurred backgrounds when taking pics, but do not want it in the cockpit when panning around.

As title - I'm running the latest patch and Hotfix and the latest version of the A320NX. In the A320NX the ISIS is not working. Can any other pilot please point me in the right direction to getting this rather essential piece of kit operating. Thanks.

SFS 2020 will not install on my HP Envy purchased with all required capabilities,just to run MSFS . Shows installation of 13GB, but nothing happens. When "starting" MSFS shows in Task Manager for about 15 seconds then goes quiet. MS XBox and Windows support have devoted hours to me, without success. I'm now trying to install in C drive (200GB), but no memory usage is indicated after "installation" completes. Should I just wait for MS to respond to the many reports, and fix the &(%*) program?

Very pleased to see they have fixed the ugly water textures that were introduced with the Japan Update. It looks great again now! What I do notice is that ground terrain looks oversharpened. This might have something to do with the new TAA, but it looks a bit unnatural. I hope this is not a measure to make blurry textures look sharper. Finally, I hope they can make the new night lighting more subtle, those white orbs lining the roads are too overbearing and draw to far into the distance without proper scaling or atmospheric distortion. The previous nightlighting was great, but perhaps a bit foo faint, so somewhere in between would be a good balance.
