I'll have to hook up my DAC, amp, and Audeze headphones to enjoy the "music" after all of that sound hype!  B)

This might just drag me back into FSX for a while from the X-Plane 11 beta. The lack of PMDG-quality jets there is disappointing.

How best to setup the Queen on a controller with 2 throttles.  I have a Saitek Rhino.  Will it work better just to lock them together and assign them to control all four as a single lever, or perhaps would it make sense to assign 1 and 2 to the left throttle and 3 and 4 to the right throttle?  Just curious what others in this position plan to do?

Please do that - I would be very interesting to hear how it sounds through ultra high end equipment!

I'm waiting for a final number for the P3d version.

So am I

single setup because two axis can only control 2 levers. And a single setup gets rid of discrepancies. I use 2 quadrants so I can use all throttle levers.

Hi,

 

Just curious will there be any Tutorials with the release? Though I'm presuming it will be similar procedures to the current oldish PMDG 747?

 

Thanks

I'm so excited, I'm nearly flying out of my little epaulet stripes.

They sayd the tutorial flight will be KDEN to KSFO

What do you mean with similar procedures? It's still a 747, why would there be anything to change?

I wasn't completely sure if they would be doing a Tutorial because the aircraft is exactly the same as the previous B747,obviously this one is newer and different stuff is added which I'm aware of if that makes sense.

I'm assuming you don't want to use the dynamic friction script with this right?

747-400 does she has FBW similar to 777 ?
