Ordered x-plane 10 but perhaps regretting it

Foot pedals are much more of a neccesity with XP than FSX...

 

FSX does have the option of "auto rudder", which is convienent for those without pedals. I do not know, if something like this exist's within X-Plane, as I always use rudder pedals, and don't like the twist grip option. Other than that, it has nothing to do with (specific sim) flight models, as has recently been suggested elsewhere. Both sims will require rudder pressure on the takeoff roll & climbeout.............for a well made model.

 

As to trim, it's just a function of letting pressure off the joystick/yoke, as you trim..........to see if the aircraft is now flying level, or in a trimmed state for climbs and decents. It's what you see, and the little bit of "centering spring" pressure, that eventually provides the "feel" in your mind.

Best is very subjective. Do you mean graphical model or flight model?

 

So far I like to fly the Baron, and the Robin D/L'd from XPFR.

Its more a case of excessive propeller effect in my opinion. I have to twist almost half way. If it can't be changed then that is fine.
