I've had similar experiences over the years, especially when installing a new piece of hardware. This sometimes can happen with hardware that's already installed too. If I see a problem, I remap the affected controls in the P3D control axis menu. It always seems to work. I also save the configuration in a separate file so I can reimport it into the controls menu for the particular device I'm having issues with. Hope this helps.

Sounds like real world situations I ran into in my airline career all the time. We'd taxi to the ramp and there wouldn't be any marshallers there.

I only use Studio Drivers.

I've been using it on and off for a few years. It doesn't really compare to PMDGs level of detail and performance. Many items are not modeled and there many more things that are not realistic and just plain wrong with regard to system operations. There are way too many to put in this post. I'm a former R/W Boeing pilot so my expectations are probably higher than the average simmer. Also, what you see is what you get since QW stopped all development for the product a while back. At this point I rarely use it anymore.

Yea, they throw us a bone once in a while with airports that aren't all that great. All of the more desirable ones go to that other sim. LOL.

I used to do IAH-NRT for real in the 777LR. It could be close to 14 hours in the winter months with the stronger winds. We all felt pretty tired by the time we landed. I've never done it in the sim.

My new machine is going to have the best components I can get, with the exception of a 5090, although I guess there are some issues with the new card according to some of the PC youtubers I've been watching. I still have a new and, in the box, 3090ti which should do the trick.

I'm still using P3D but will get MSFS as soon as my new machine is built within the next month or so. No point in doing it till then. Anyway, I'm a PC guy who uses realistic aircraft controls and am not interested in using an Xbox controller to fly airplanes. Being a former Airline Pilot, realism is paramount for me. I'm curious as to how you people feel about the direction MSFS is taking with respect to whether it's being optimized for Xbox and if PCs are going to play second fiddle with respect to sim functionality. I'm not criticizing anything here and will plead ignorance. I'm just interested in getting everyone's take on the subject. Thanks.

One of the nice things about P3Dv5 is that you don't need an internet connection to use it. I'm not saying that I'll never purchase MSFS 2024, but I'm in no hurry to do so.

Sounds like a paid endorsement!

A streaming sim will, unfortunately, always have issues.

Have any of you read the posts in the MSFS forum recently. It's an insult swapping blood bath.

The same thing happened with the QW787. I flew Boeing aircraft for several years, including the 777. After buying the QW787, I noticed many items that were inaccurate and completely wrong. They too, said that they were using actual 787 pilots for testing. I find it hard to believe that these "Pilots" missed so many things. Either that or the developers were more interested in creating eye candy than they were about the realism of the airplane.

This is an arcade game, not a flight simulator.

There sure seems to be a lot of rude people on this post. Some of you guys seriously need to chill out.
