Need to get up and running with FSX for practice

Featured Replies

Hello everyone

 

I used to be an avid flight simmer "back in the day". I got out of it once I got my ratings (used it to practice most for instrument rating). So had no need really! Anyway, recently I was given a new aircraft assignment unlike anything I have ever flown and want to practice all the new procedures as I am starting over at a new company.

 

I found out there was a recent release of my aircraft that looks fairly legit in operation. I'm litterally starting from scartch here - I intend to purchase FSX, a PS3 camera, and a control yoke (CH yoke like this or Saitek joystick like this) used on eBay and get FaceTrackNoIR and practice that way. Graphics aren't too important so I will just use my laptop plugged into my TV to practice, but cost IS a factor (first year pay and all).

 

Am I missing anything?

 

To sum up, I'd like to use it to practice flows and profiles. Will this set me up?

Yes, for what you want to do!
