Recently I have invested quite heavily on VR/Yoke based setup and unfortunately I am finding it quite immersion breaking when flying a stick based bird using a yoke. Therefore I thought i would try it was possible collate a complete list of MSFS Aircraft that are yoke based so that anyone in a simular position can get a good idea of the full scope availible. Below is a list of the MSFS base aircraft that use a yoke... and i was wondering if anyone could chip in with any add-on aircrafts they have found that use a yoke? Boeing 747-8 Boeing 787-10 Daher TBM 930 Textron Aviation Beech Baron G58 Textron Aviation Beech Bonanza G36 Textron Aviation Beech Kin…

Hi, i used to love and still love the video trainings from Angle of attack (https://www.flyaoamedia.com/pmdg-737-ngx-training/). Does someone know sth simliar to the a320, especially the groundwork training? I am already in posession of mike ray's a320 pilot handbook but would love to have an even more detailed video training of all the a320 systems. Thanks, kind regards Philipp

Just would like to hear people's experiences with MK Studios products since they are running a sale right now. I own their EFHK and unfortunately can't say at all that I've been very impressed with it. Poor texturing and simple geometrics all over the place while still somehow quite taxiing on the fps. Yet some of their other airports look a lot nicer (at least in the screenshots). Is EFHK just below their usual standards or should I expect similar quality from their other sceneries?

I have some mods where I was moving the folders around trying to locate a mod causing me a problem. Now whenever I try to install one of these files back into into the community folder, the sim content manager will not work. It's as if they've become encrypted or something from moving them around too many times. I have the same problem even if I redownload them and install a fresh file into the community folder. I'm stumped, any ideas? LouP

A minor thing, but I've noticed that when using REX Global Airport Textures and in a plane with a glass cockpit on the runway, the "illustration" of the runway and its markings within the PFD display is really dark. All other terrain features display as usual in the display, it's just the runway markings are dark. Same with taxiways. When removing REX's textures, the markings show up bright or "normal" in the display. I'm guessing this is by design? I'm using the REX "used" and "heavy rubber buildup" options so I'm guessing the display is mimicking the darker markings, whereas without the REX textures the display is mimicking the pristine default MSFS runways? …

I have discovered three airports which, when any one of them is added to the flight plan between the departure and arrival points, will cause the following malfunctions in Glass Cockpit Instruments: 1. Airspeed, Altitude, Heading and Bank indicators are frozen. (i.e they show no change of data) 2. The map doesn't move in the "moving map" displays. In addition, for any aircraft flying this flight plan, the "VFR MAP" invoked via the "Tools" menu will have no moving map and no zoom capability. The offending airports I've found (there are probably others) are: KPMD (Palmdale California) KRMG (Rome Georgia) KBOI (Boise Idaho) I am running MSFS Ver…

Hi Folks, As you can discern from the title, I am flying the Bell 47G using a Thrustmaster T16000 flight stick, Lorby's AAOs and a Stream Deck XL. I have a Cessna 172S profile that's very good for that aircraft. But, when using the 47G, I am looking to run the throttle axis through LAAOs. That's really my problem. I have no idea which throttle binding/command in LAAOs to use, there are so many that come up when I search/filter in LAAOs for 'throttle'. There are like 50 choices. I am grateful for any assistance. Thanks

Hello, Lately, I've noticed the scenery is getting whiter, brighter, milkier, like there's an intense fog. I have to lower the humidity in the Weather settings to a minimum and avoid using Real Weather, too. To minimize this excess of light I have raised the contrast of my monitor (to 90%), also with the NVIDIA Panel settings, and with the Game Filter of GeForce Experience, raising the contrast values and lowering the highlights. And still I'm not happy. Anyone else feels the same?

I think this plane is underrated, and for $8 in the market place, it's fun to fly. Sure the cockpit is a little strange looking and could use a minor update, but this plane is a lot more fun to fly to me than a lot of the higher priced ones like the Kodiak. It's fast, sound is good, and has some auto-pilot functionality (and most fast aircraft like jets don't have any in MSFS, except the bigger ones)... The designer (Deimos) should fix the cockpit and just a couple bugs, and man this would be right up there with my favorites.

Just a heads-up. I have bought it via their website! The airport is looking stunning. Lots of details and no elevation issues (Photogrammetry on or off). The approaches are challenging due the steep glidepath (especially coming in at 24 with 3.5%) and the sloped runway with 0.7%! Beautifully done and the price does match the quality in my opinion. RDPresets Homepage Happy landings! Marcus

A lot of stuff is on sale for $1 to $3 off, I mean really? Ok, there is quite a bit on sale for $5 off, but some of the airports on sale for $5 off were already on sale. Guess you have to wait until Black Friday or Christmas to get the good sale.

Anyone else having trouble connecting to the Fenix app when loading the plane? I keep trying this evening and the EFP says to make sure that the fenix.exe app is running (it is) and that AV is not blocking it (it's not). I've rebooted the sim, restarted my PC but keep getting this message. Anyone else having this problem?

Hi there, We have adjusted gross weight (GW) logic and computation in the FMS and other monitoring systems for the development version. This includes accurate conditions where GW is displayed and appropriate warnings on the MCDU when the aircraft is not initialized correctly.

Yes, they have now released the 190/195 variant. On first release I found the 175 to be practically unflyable and absolute rubbish. But I have to say that they've continued to work on it. The sounds and autopilot are now much much better and I managed a complete flight yesterday without any issues. I have no doubt it's nothing remotely close to the real thing but for fifteen quid, well, it's OK.

If you have this scenery, can you please check if you have the control tower? I'm using MSFS Steam and not the beta SU10. The tower exists in the default scenery, in the ads, and in real life. I'm wondering if this is isolated to me. I'm hoping for a reply from the developer. The scenery is on sale at the Marketplace for $7.99, and improves on the default, so I figured why not.

Hi guys, I have been unable to connect my iPad as an external device for the last 2 or 3 days. Any tips? All the IPs are correct. Just nothing happening. I've tried restarting everything including the router to get a different IP. Brick wall. So frustrating.
