I’m still trying to fully understand the MS/Asobo control assignment logic (after five years…). In MSFS 2024, each aircraft comes with predefined cockpit instrument views, typically bound as: Toggle Instrument View 1 → Ctrl+1 Toggle Instrument View 2 → Ctrl+2 Toggle Instrument View 3 → Ctrl+3 etc. What I would like to achieve is an aircraft-specific keyboard binding. Example: In Aircraft X: Pressing “M” triggers Toggle Instrument View 2 In Aircraft Y: Pressing “M” triggers Toggle Instrument View 4 In other words, same physical key, different function depending on the l…

I decided to give Aerosoft's upgraded CRJ a flight after over a year of not flying it. Upgraded to the latest (2024) version. Flight went ok until after takeoff. No matter what I did, wasn't able to engage the autopilot. Mach / trim / yaw dampers were all engaged. Any idea what the issue is? Also, can someone remind me how to engage reverse thrust? I calibrated the throttle to allow for reverse thrust but when in the sim, full aft on the throttle only brought me to Idle.

Let me start by saying I am just starting to try to understand the longitude so I am sure there is lots of stuff I do not understand yet. Here's the scenario I am asking about: Longitude sitting on the runway. I have a spoiler axis defined to the position 1 lever on the Bravo. When I pull the spoiler lever down the spoiler moves a tiny bit and that's all. What do you do to get the spoilers to engage fully? Thanks ...... Rob

Almost everytime I load the game, it indicates that I must perform an update, otherwise I cannot start flying. The title shows a scenery upgrade, usually a particular area. Now these updates are massive, and my C drive is getting close to full capacity. Can I bypass the upload and go straight to the main menu? Eytan Ornstein

I found this May 1993 article from the APOA Pilot magazine online this morning. A great read and talks about the changes made when Beechcraft modified their original Starship 2000 and created the 2000A. 199305-1993 Beech 2000A Starship.pdf

Hello I am using Spad next to control the Saitek switch panel. It works fine except with the landing gear on the A2A Comanche. When I use the landing gear lever nothing happens. Has someone found a way to fix this problem? THX

Maddog 20th Anniversary Systems Stress Test: Dual Flameout at 1,000ft - ok give a few 100ft here and there haha (Relight is Possible!) Many simmers assume a dual-flameout after takeoff is an immediate "game over," but there is a very specific flow for a relight that requires two main emergency actions as well as balancing your glide speed against the N2 rotation needed for the ignition. I’ve seen quite a few simmers accidentally torching their MD-80 engines or inducing flameouts during the climb-out phase due to improper EPR management (over-revving). I decided to use that as a scenario to test the emergency systems logic. The Technical Challenge: T…

Seriously, it is getting more and more ridiculous, what kind of posts of myself get "redacted" over there. And come on, do they really think that anyone believes this "was flagged by the community" bull? Never ever was my last post "hidden due to flags from the community", this is straight forward impossible and it would be absolutely embarrassing for our simming community, if this post was flagged. Heck, I even get this message sometimes after (!) a comment got 5 or more "hearts", clearly indicating that people share my thoughts and then, bam, half an hour later it was so called "flagged by the community". Come on, do they think we are all utterly stupid? I wonder,…

1. Does it work well with VFR? 2. How well does it work with PMDG 737 integration with SayIntentions API Key? 3. Will it work with PSXT data fed by RealTraffic (LiveTraffic) and AIG models? (assume just ATC aspect) 4. Can it be menu driven rather than voice? Premium services is $190/yr which seems reasonable if they deliver VFR support that works in controlled airspace. I have BeyondATC but their roadmap seems to never change (aka completed) and the ATC voices were great but it just kept on endlessly hounding me for responses to the point where I just disabled it … that and no VFR support in controlled airspace. Thoughts?

I picked the Boris 737 2024 sound pack up tonight from Orbx. I have quite mixed feelings about it: Pros The engine sounds are great. Much better than PMDG New sounds when passing over bumps etc (slow taxi, not take off roll) are really nice There are some nice new APU sounds that can only be heard when you open the cockpit window - nice Cons The switch and knob sounds are soooo darn quiet! This is the biggest change between older sound packs and newer ones. I'd guess the reason is realism. Ie. how loud are switches like these in reality, from the cockpit, with systems running and potentially a headset on. But it just comes…

I was hoping that someone could impart some wisdom on me. I cannot get my Bravo TQ to get flaps 1 or 2. I was hoping there was some kind of calibration on the aircraft but can't find it if there is. I have a 737 throttle mod from Flightsim Factory (https://www.etsy.com/listing/1720655855/737-pro-v3-full-electronic-thrust-lever?ref=hp_rv-3&sts=1&logging_key=b2974cb2947025ddce8829ff61ed910d30b7c163%3A1720655855) that has all the detents but even when I pull the mod off, the flap handle will just go up and down when I try to select flaps 1 or 2. I can select flaps 5 on but not 1 or 2. Any help would be appreciated.

Apologies for the generic-ness of this post 😄 I just enjoy reading people's views. A month ago, I was a hardcore GA only flyer in MSFS2024. That's been the case for about 4 years. I just lost interest in airliner flying and instead enjoyed realistic simulation of GA aircraft, similar to the real world GA flying I do. .... but something happened a couple of weeks ago. The spark was re-ignited! I now can't get excited about GA flying and I am absolutely loving being back into the airliner flying that I enjoyed from 2004 - 2021. I'm loving the Fenix A319, A320 & A321, PMDG 737 2024, PMDG 777F, Ini A300, TFDi MD-11s and even the humble AS CRJ V2. I…

Hi all, I've noticed running the Fenix Airbuses (all) in MS2024, that when I select the cabin model visibility off in the EFB, it still renders. To be more specific, I've noticed that one thing you notice when you select the cabin visibility off in the Fenix, is that the click spot to open the cockpit door (from the inside) disappears. That makes sense if you were to disable the cabin visibility. But.... with the cabin visibility turned off, if I go to one of my custom wing views, or float through the cockpit door with the free cam, the cabin is still very much rendered. Anyone know anything about this? I'm usually ok performance-wise in the F…
