I just wondered why there's not a real A350 pilot that have tried it and can tell how it compares to the real one, both in systems, handling etc. Although there's a lot of real A320 pilots who knows the airbusses, it's always more exciting to hear from someone who uses it on a daily basis.

I've seen a lot of videos with real Airbus pilots, and even though it's soo similar to ie the A320, I haven't seen any videos where a real world A350 is flying it and comparing it to the real deal, and what their opinion is about it. Have you seen any YT videos, and maybe have a link, please?

Okay, first I'll never get a VR set and though I have never tried it I have seen videos with it and it seems difficult to use knobs and buttons in the sim and I don't know if it's possible to use them when I'm wearing glasses. And they're still pretty expensive to invest in, since I'm a very casual simmer and only use it maybe once or twice a month. And it may sound silly, but I NEVER, and that's the truth, check what the Fps are. As long as it looks good and is smooth without stutters, I really don't care if it says 30 or 100. And with the limited use of the game, I don't intend to invest a lot of money in it, I actually bought a Thrustmaster TCA around 6 months ago, but haven't unpacked it yet so I'm not that serious about it, and that's why a cheap 43" 60Hz TV may be enough for me. Thanks for all the input and advice guys.

I do have a 32" monitor running in 2560 x 1440, but my eyesight isn't what it used to be, and I find a lot of the gauges are hard to read , so I figured (hoped) that a 43" might help. And I don't mind not running it in 4K, but only in 2K if that will help. If I'm totally wrong, please tell me. And no, I will not consider a wide screen. 🙂

If I buy a 43" inch 4K TV for MSFS2020 (and later MSFS2024) will it make any difference if the TV has a 120Hz refresh rate instead of 50HZ? The 60hz tv's are considerable cheaper than the 120Hz's but will I notice the difference?

I have the Thrustmaster TCA Joystick and throttle pack AND an old CH Flight yoke. I haven't bought FS2024 yet, but when I do (and I will at some point), can I have both plugged in at the same time, or do I have to unplug the yoke if I want to use the Tca, and visa versa?

I've never flown helicopters , because when I tried, I found it was impossible to do with just a joystick. Can you explain how you setup a joystick and rudder pedals to be used with helicopters?

Thanks a lot for all the replies. I my be able to get a used pair of TC pedals for about 50 US, and I'm well aware they're probably not the best but for a start to see if it's something I can get used to, I think they will do.

I have used flightsims for more than 30 years (Yes, I'm that old) and I have never had a set of rudder pedals, only a joystick with a stick that can be used as rudders Now i have bought the Thrustmaster TCA pack, and even though it still can be used as rudders, I'm also considering if I finally should buy a set of rudder pedals to go with it Do you guys all have seperat rudder pedals or do you still use a "twisting" joystick? And when is it mot critical in flight to use pedals?

Can the online flight planner (not the one in the EFB) de used as a moving map, so you can follow your flight / plane in it?

Since I waited to buy MSFS 2020 until 2 Years after release, I'm in no hurry to buy MS2024. Not to sound pessimistic, but I'm sure there will be lots of bugs and things that doesn't work properly, it's been that way with previous versions, so why should MS2024 be any different. So let's see after a year or so if they have managed to work out the different bugs, and until then MSFS 2020 will do just fine for me.

I'm amazed at how far flight simming has come. from having a wireframe kind of a C172 in the first version of Flightsim, to what Inibuild have made for Msfs2024. If that's the new standard for default aircrafts, then payware companies have something to live up to. I remember seeing a presentation of the C-17 in a developers stream, but can't remember where, so if someone can remember the link, I would be very grateful. Thanks in advance.

I will buy the Standard edition, since they (MS) has mentioned that it will be possible to buy planes from i.e the Premium Deluxe version, separately. And also the fact we can rent planes to see if it's worth buying. Please correct me if I have gotten the rent /buying thing wrong.

Is there a recap of the twitch SDK & Marketplace stream anywhere?

It's not a beta version, It's the ALPHA.
