Go to a flight sim forum... they can answer these questions better... also...MSFS 2020 comes out in a month

I bought a leftover VKB stick... and will buy the Honeycomb throttle... with saitek pedals... kind of a budget combo. I like the stick because the aircraft I am most interested in flying (GA) are all stick. And hopefully third party in the future... warbirds etc will use a stick. That honeycomb...

Uh oh... someone ****ed in your corn flakes... sorry about that bud. Can we just be clear that you think FSX has a realistic flight model? I am a big fan of FSX... but there was a lot of improvement needed on the flight model to say the least. That is 15 year old tech... I recommend you watch...

I really don't think the specs are all that insane for MSFS. We will see. I will wait for it to come out and see what the masses say before purchasing a PC.

I am humming and hawing on what kind of computer to buy/build. I am not a computer guy.. so building one myself seems complex. I also have a tight budget, but want to be smart and get the most out of the sim? Any suggestions for you guys that have already setup for it? The minister of war and...

Man, I am stoked. Good hobby over the winter. Due to financial and health reasons, I am not flying for real, so this is great. But my wife, not so happy. Not so happy with the credit card charges.... new everything including computer to get the best out of this bad boy.

LOL fair enough... the recommended specs don't look too bad? But yeah, I am anticipating dropping some coin... whatever, gives me something to do this winter lol. The list of aircraft is interesting, clearly Euro influenced, unlike past versions. Kind of neat, get to try something new... hope...

Man I am stoked. I will have to buy a computer, I want this thing running top notch. What is an AMU? I also wonder what an "Enhanced airport" is, and what the additional aircraft are. I wonder what version is best. Any recommendations on Computers? I don't know much about that stuff.

I thought his wife kept her head. A keeper for that reason, and a few others.

Yikes... I assumed that the latch may have not been latched properly... that should never happen.

Quite the ride!

Hey All, I saw this today and could not find another thread? Thoughts?

Interesting. I don't have much time in a heli (3 hours?) but in fixed wing I like having the tactile feel of the knob. I find it difficult in turbulence/chop to get my finger to go where it needs to on a touch screen. I would have thought it would be similiar in a heli.

Yes.

Not my words, but from another forum.... A few points of clarification from a guy with 1600 hours on the Tutor (not Tudor, for the record): - although the airframes are getting close to 60 years old, the engines are not. They have a TBO and service life they did when they were first introduced...

I think it was Pat...

Good Video. Brings context... thank you very much for posting. Sent to a few friends and family.

Good thing, airplanes pollute the air to much anyway.

Honestly, I could buy 3 of the same tool for the price of 1 good quality one. And alot of times the cheaper ones last. Especially tools you are not using all the time.

LOL indeed mine too... catching lots of flak for her comments
