How to get rid of compass and readouts on MSFS 2024 screen?

Featured Replies

Yes, the irritating and unnecessary compass at top left and readouts such as airspeed, fuel, flaps and trim that are superimposed along the bottom of the MS2024 flight screen. If I want those I will look at my instruments, thank you. There must be a way to get rid of this anti-immersive stuff?

If I may reply with a touch of humour, there are none of theses things in VR, and the immersion is incomparable.

  That must have been a big help to the OP...

Thanks, that worked a treat!

I wish this feature could be set up to toggle on and off in MSFS2024. I like to fly from the external camera quite often so I like the external HUD to be enabled most of the time. However, when I want to take screenshots from the external camera views it's an inconvenience, besides an immersion killer, to go into the menu to turn this feature off before taking a screenshot.

In the early days of MSFS2020, there was a developer (Mugz) who created a toggle option for the FS2020 external HUD. So, it is possible. I just wish Asobo would add the ability to toggle the FS2024 external HUD in a future SU. Please Asobo?   

Doesn't "Backspace" do that..?

"Backspace" returns the camera view from external view back to the cockpit. I would like to remain with the external camera but just toggle the external HUD off with a key (like backspace). Anyway, thanks for the suggestion.
