  1. I find AI to be really helpful in some cases. Ethical use demands a reality check though, just like journalists don't publish without having two independent sources to verify information. Doesnt mean you have to check EVERYTHING, but a sense check really helps. I've learned this the hard way, using AI to generate flight sim related procedures, then finding out afterwards that it was only half right and needed a little correction!
  2. Thats great, what settings do you use to have it working for you please? I cant seem to get anything.
  3. I won't comment on individual users feelings about the product and any perceived issues with how it flies. As a member of the beta team I can attest that every report of every issue is considered, debated (sometimes at length!), with rw pilot input and oft-times researching of technical documentation available to the team. Nothing is batted away off hand, there's always a rationale as to why something needs changing or not. Issues need to be verified, reproduced, analysed, determined to be a problem with the product, fixable within the SDK, and viable/prioritised accordingly. Raul himself is an absolute machine and demands the best obtainable fidelity. Personally my performance is well within my excellent hardware capabilities, but yes it is relatively demanding compared to some products. There's a reason for that though, the level of underlying complexity in the simulation is outrageous!
  4. Expect even the lifts to work in the FBO and to have to feed the fish in the aquarium! 🤭
  5. If I understand Raul as I think I do, you should expect to find anything that's feasibly possible to simulate in 2024 simulated 😉 (..and possible some things that no-one ever thought were possible but he made happen anyway!)
  6. I haven't experienced this issue myself it's worked perfectly. I did experience a glitch with calibration of throttle axes the other day but on restart of the SIM it disappeared and worked A OK.
  7. Which bugs specifically?
  8. Assymetric thrust definitely is modelled because on the ground I've steered with it... 🤣
  9. The head dev is really committed and responsive on Discord. The aircraft itself is just getting better and better. It is quite complicated in places though, and definitely is NOT something you should expect to be able to just jump in and fly like an airliner.
  10. And if this should be so, it is their right, is it not, to do so? None of us here have the right to condemn another for what they do or don't find acceptable.
  11. So, first real go on SU5, it's recognising my Fulcrum yoke as a f*cking Tobi, so it's unuseable 😞
  12. I asked about this on their discord today: If I fail say the outboard engine 4, will the correction needed for the resulting assymetric remaining thrust be realistically modelled? FSR], Farley — 14:07 Yes. However bear in mind that, A) it's a 4-engined plane, so unless you're at very low airspeed, you're really not going to feel that much. B) at low airspeeds, there is a system called ATCS which automatically reduces thrust to the opposite outboard engine (you'll see a blue wedge between commanded HP and actual HP on the dial) to reduce the asymmetric thrust.
  13. Nah, only paid £1800 for mine last year, best upgrade I ever made in terms of performance (and value compared to now!). all luck though, can't claim any massive prescience 🤣
  14. Update from a few days ago on Majestic forums is they have a modeler now, work has been done in the exterior, and will move on to the VC when that's complete
  15. To be fair, any decent atc app is going to have to take a chunk of performance away from other stuff. Everything costs compute, whichever way you slice it.
