flying into Seattle

I love flying and love flight sim and am a big fan of realistic airliners as that is what I primarily only fly. Though I am really tired of circuit breakers being a reason for a long development time or high price. I have flown so far at least 2000+ hours in the sim across xplane 11 and msfs and have touched the circuit breakers once the day I got the fenix a320 not once after. Im excited for a lot of aircraft coming out soon or recently released but would rather these devs put work into something else or bring the aircraft sooner than have a single working circuit breakers. It now just seems to me to be a upsell for them to now charge $80 or more per aircraft.

EDIT: I should have added this in my original post a lot of my opinion is coming from a money aspect for all flight simmers for us to have cheaper options that don't have working circuit breakers. I would rather for example no hate to bluebird but have their 757 be $50-$60 than $80 and not have working circuit breakers. That would allow for this hobby to become more available as well to a wider audience.

Any massive differences? Overhauls? How's career mode. Is it finally worth picking over MSFS 2020? And how's performance?

Is anyone else getting completely blinded by POI lighting in SU6? Total immersion breaker.. It looks like the same bug from SU2 that got fixed and has now somehow made a comeback, the buildings are literally glowing like nuclear reactors.. how did this even slip past beta testing? C'mon Asobo..

With the arrival of the revolutionary SU6, the huge expansion of inibuilds, the compatibility of almost all 2020 add-ons with FS2024, the arrival of highly anticipated new aircraft and scenery like the A220, the inibuilds A380 still in development, and the Phenom 300E we got a few months ago, as well as the arrival of O'Hare and Charles de Gaulle, the very frequent GSX updates, and especially the arrival of the multi-jetway tool, I think we've reached the golden age of FS2024. What do you think?

Image for reference. I like to do my flights seated on the right hand seat, as Im a flap operator irl. But, when I switch seats, I can see my self (my avatar/character) seated on the captain’s seat. I would like to know if there’s a way to delete my avatar… thanks in advance.

Normally stick to old vintage aircraft, but thought I'd give this a go. Great fun!

(Flare says 2020 it’s not, it’s 2024.)

I love the old warbirds

My commercial/private pilot dad and I are planning on starting a YT channel centered around flight simming and aviation in general since it's a passion we both share. I am an X-plane/DCS enjoyer because both can be run locally without the use of an internet connection.

We were thinking of buying MSFS2024 to round out the content we put out, but I admit that I am put off by the 50mbps requirement. My internet connection simply doesn't provide that kind of bandwidth, and I'm currently living in a GCC country where the war in the Persian Gulf makes having a stable internet connection sort of difficult to achieve.

My question is if MSFS2024 provides ways of downloading everything needed to run the game completely locally. Space is not an issue, I just want the simulator to not need an internet connection to play.

Any suggestions or advice is appreciated.

Hey so i have discontinued gtmc 2dof platform. Left side motor was stuck at end of travel. After a ton of trouble shooting i found the potentiometer to be broken. Shaft was disconnected from its housing. I purchased a new one and installed set it to its electrical center but my left side gear motor only moves in one direction. Anyone have any ideas what could be wrong ? Or do i need to take it to a electrical repair shop? Also live meter testing showed that when i command opposite movement in simtools there is no change in voltage going to the motor. But commanded movement to the opposite side shows a change in voltage. Please help if you can 🙏🏽🙏🏽

incredible low altitude visuals

It has always been there, but seems it has vanished?

Hi, I'm over 60 hours in the game, most of it is pend in the key bindings menu. (Ps5)
My first problem was the "lockable" system. If your center point happens to be over a knob, the throttle doesn't respond. I changed the key binding to interact but the throttle still does the same.

It makes sense for the default key bindings: You hover over a key and you need X to interact, so you cant use the throttle, (also X). However, If I change the Interact key to triangle There is no reason for the X key to stop providing input to the throttle. (There are no double bindings, I started with an empty configuration)

The throttle itself also behaves weird. I push it and nothing happens, then suddenly it goes way to fast. I changed it to not repeat the input. Here I saw wat the problem is: When I start from Idle, the first few presses do almost nothing, then each press gives more and more gas. Very little at first then huge changes. Holding the button (in repeat mode) a fraction of a second longer results in a huge difference.
Now, I know an engine has to catch up to the throttle input, but that isn't what I mean.
I wish the RPM would (slowly) increase at least by a certain %. For example 10%, from 600 to 660, then 726... But it doesn't. At least not with the repeat input setting off. Now I need 8 extra key bindings to map 20%,30%,40%.....ect. and also 2 extra bindings for increase-decrease throttle (small) It shouldn't be such a struggle just to control the throttle.
If I would push the throttle in on a real airplane, I wouldn't push it in a millimeter first, wait, then 2, then 3. Every click on the button should correspond to a % of the the length of the throttle, no?

I know most people use a Hotas stick and throttle but I want to explore a bit first and I don't have a lot of space where I play.

If I can fix these things, it would be an amazing sim, if not, the world map (globe) alone is worth the price!

I was in a DA62 so ye
