Ps...I did not know about the urbandictionary definition of J/K, but I did guess it meant Just kidding. My question are you kidding? was not really a question at all, It was just my way to put down cockpit building as a hobby 🤣🤣🤣

Also, once they add VR, I won’t need buttons to change views. I’ll just turn my head 😂

Are you kidding? The reason I dumped my old cockpit was precisely because it was riddled with problems. These MSFS problems are peanuts by comparison & once they add virtual reality, this will be a lot more fun, especially bush flying 😁 . Also, not stuck flying the same type of plane all the time. Variety is the spice of life 😂

Ok, but that is not what I was asking. I don’t think I made myself clear, so here is exactly what I would like: How I can assign ONE button on a joystick (call it button A) to do the following function...Bring me back to the default pilot view EVERYTIME, no matter what my current view is, whether it is inside, outside or in one of the Showcase views. But there are conditions, so these are the conditions:You MUST start in the default pilot view, go to an OUSIDE view and FROM THERE, go to any SHOWCASE view. Once you are in a showcase view, ONE click and ONE click only on Button A should bring you back to the default cockpit view. I don’t care how you get to the outside or showcase view, whether with a button or from the top menu In other words, I don’t want to fumble with views by pressing on more than one button to get back to the default cockpit view. I really do not think this is possible right now. Thanks

Yeah, that was part of my point...it does not always return to where you want it to return 🙂. There is a reset view command, but I wanted just one button push to get back to default position and that is not always possible. I wish there was the program I use in XPlane to switch views...X camera. With that one, one click is all that is needed from anywhere.

Is there any way to assign one key on any controller to always bring you back to the default cockpit view, no matter what external view you are coming from. I have literally spent hours upon hours to find it to no avail. So, does anybody know if there is a ‘magic’ key assignment that can always bring you back to the default cockpit view? Toggle VFR Cockpit mode does not do it, Cockpit/External view mode only works if you are in the regular external view and not in an external fixed camera view, and VFR pilot view reset does not work either. In fact, I often get in situations where the only way to get back to the default cockpit view is to do it via the top menu bar on top of the screen, which is rather awkward on short final. There must be an easier way. Thank you.

I have a Samsung. It is quite good, but I was just wondering whether it was worth replacing it with a bigger TV. In hindsight though, it may be stupid to do that since I will shortly (I hope) receive the Pimax virtual headset I ordered last November 🙄, at which point the monitor will likely only be used while settings things up. Still nice to have a bigger screen, but not really necessary. Anyway, thank you for your feedback. Maurice

Sounds like keeping my monitor is the best option since I have no idea if chroma 4:4:4 is ever mentioned in the TV specs. None of those I see in Amazon mention that particular value as far as I could see. Thank you for the feedback.

I know there are countless articles and opinions about that, but ALL I want to know is if you can read the text in small instrument gauges just as well or better on a 4K large TV (43”) vs a 4K 32” monitor. I just bought a 32” 4K monitor and I’m thinking I should have bought a 43” 4K TV instead and considering returning the monitor. Please respond only if you have personal experience with a large 4K TV and flight sim. Thank you

Has anyone found a solution for that one yet? Thanks, Maurice

My bank account (and my wife) thank you profusely :-) . I came very close many times to biting the bullet and spending that money but a little voice inside me kept saying this was not the magic bullet I was hoping for. Thank you again. Maurice

Conclusively inconclusive . Can you possibly quantify the improvement, even if very approximate. Or even better, knowing what you know now and if you could turn back the clock, would you spend that money again? Thanks, Maurice

Hi Mike, Did you notice an improvement over the GTX 690 you used to have? I still have a GTX 690 running three TVs at 5760x1080 and I am wondering whether the switch to a Titan is worth it. Thanks, Maurice

Same here. Very annoying indeed. Maurice

That was one of the first things I tried from 0.1 to 0.5 and that made no difference in the blurries. Thanks, Maurice
