If you have an issue with your Thrustmaster TCA throttle, you need to change 0 to 100% throttle axis to throttle axis, set everything to zero, except reactivity, then finally lock the reverse detent up with the rotating small knob

About 2-4 less on my side

I’ve been pretty much holding off on buying anything for MSFS for awhile but for lack of a DC-3 I might get this. Been enjoying the tutorials on YouTube.

And don't forget this part, you need to remove the thrust reverser lock :

So far it is just as I remembered in P3dv4.

 

I do have one issue. My plane seems to have fuel leak in Main Tank 2. I like to switch to the alternate center tanks after I reach cruise and noticed Main Tank 2 is loosing fuel ever so slightly.

Has anyone feathered the props on the DC-6B?  I am eager to get this one installed and up in the air so I can shut down and feather #1 and #4 engines.  Then I can tell myself I am getting a quick look and feel for the future PMDG DC-3. I will make a handful of INOP placards to stick on the gauges that I won’t be needing for the rest of the flight.

Sound like fun?

Question for those that have the aircraft.  I had it for P3D, didn't really fly it much, just wondering what the views are like from the left seat.  Do you get a great view of the scenery in MSFS ?

No brainer in terms of what do you mean?

I've never flow the DC-6 - it's very old and rather lumbering and boring.

No brainer in terms of a No-Buy?

 

Somebody doesn’t know how to fly a real airplane by the looks of it! 😄
 

This is what makes some of us better then the rest when it comes to mastering a true classic. You know, us Avsim members. 😉

Not the best plane for scenery though just as in real life its adequate
