I downloaded sound packs for a number of other aircraft so I’m at around $1 per sound pack if I only stay signed up for the one month. Not sure what I’ll do there, depends on frequency of updates I guess. I’m not sure how to figure out which aircraft sound packs are available at the less expensive FTSim tier and whether that one includes the Maddog or not. Overall I agree we shouldn’t need sound packs for such an expensive aircraft but given the choice between stubbornly using the default sounds or paying a small amount of money for the benefit of a great sound experience I’ll choose the latter. Its been a while since I flew the Maddog but I couldn’t get the GPU to connect…pressing the GPU button on the EFB didn’t do anything. I was generally rusty and need a repeat flight tonight to get back in the saddle! If you have GSX (which you apparently do), you have to call the GPU via GSX. The Maddog is now fully GSX integrated, meaning you refuel, board etc. Via the GSX menu (and the Maddog accordingly „fills up“) For transparency: I'm a community mentor at the BATC discord. However, I do not get paid for it in any way.

I set a spoilers axis and the MD spoilers arm goes kid of crazy when I move the axis control, but always jumps back to zero. I can't drag the spoilers arm with a mouse either. Or arm them.

February 15, 20233 yr Okay... thanks for checking. It's obviously me, but I can fathom why. I've opened at topic at Leaonardo.

Too sad, the developers haven't achieved the jump over to this new simulator. And currently I do not get more then 22 FPS (needless to say I have 40 FPS with Fenix, PMDG etc) So, will land her and retire her until the next update probably, but I have no hopes any more 😒 Thanks to @Fiorentoni I gave her a second chance. This time everything worked as it should: SimBrief import went easily with one click (was not possible before) in all aspects, FPS are also better now ... not good looking at the low poly VC, but acceptable. EFB is not like from Fenix, looks also outdated, but it works. So, I stand corrected, definitv flyable and I tend to say also enjoyable now 😉 Still not worth 85€, but I have paid them already long ago 😉 Guenter Steiner -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Betatester for: A2A, LORBY, FSR-Pillow Tester --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
