When OSD is displayed in the center you can briefly click e.g. Map from the Menu, then OSD is flickering wildly between different locations. With a little patience it comes up in the previous corner once you deselect Map from the menu again. Sometimes I need more than one attempt. It is only a poor workaround Cheers Martin

That's the way it is unfortunately. iSpring is an Easy Jet derived app. Since they have no A330s there is no adequate app here.

Lorby's AddOn Manager is the way to go. It's freeware and a must have tool for this task.

You can have a look at FSElite.net, they have fancy P3Dv5 Hub with tons of information on that topic...

You are welcome! Good news!

Hi Ray, as far as I remember it doesn‘t work with water details „ultra“. Perhaps this is your case. Just dial it back to „high“ is worth trying it then... Cheers Martin

I found a way to substitue DVD 1 requirement for Simulator start with my oldest and smallest USB Stick: Format your USB Stick with NTFS and rename this new Volume to: "MSF Disk 1" (mind the Spaces!) Copy all data over to your USB Stick EXCEPT Cab 1 and Cab 2 (not required, reduces content size down to 11MB) Remove your DVD 1, then start MSFS2020 and wait for the "Insert DVD 1 Message", then plug your USB Stick in any available USB port Wait for recognition of the USB Stick (took quite a while on my system) then press "continue" DONE! Hope it works for you as well! Happy Landings , Martin

Hi Isaac, looking at your settings I'd highly recommend lowering your autogen building setting to medium. It is a real performance killer together with side effects like autogen popping. Would love to hear how it helps...

Hi, I used to train formation flying with the old FSX Version. Donˋt know how good the P3Dv4 Version is. Maybe this link is interesting for you. Cheers, Martin

That‘s good news. Enjoy working with it! Martin

Hi Andreas, I can recommend the iSpring App for iPads together with an ECAM Training Software ( can't remember the exact name) of Easyjet. It's free and for real world pilots. If you have trouble finding it, I will give you more details. Cheers Martin Edit: search for iSpring play and Read ECAM

For me the AS A330 feels not sluggish at all. The professional real world Simulators are more sluggish under certain failure conditions.

Hi Folks, I find this thread very interesting and since I'm am a real world A320 and A330 (MFF) Pilot I hope my experience can shed some light on this question: First of all I'm using AS A330 Version 1.0.0.7 with an old Saitek ST290 pro Joystick and Saitek rudder pedals. Next important thing: I use the recommended AS Control axis settings of Vol.1 Page 37 (Sensitivity for aileron + elevator 64 and nullzone for both 36) I did some traffic Patterns in P3Dv4.5 HF2 with a take off and landing gross weight of 163tons (MT) and tried to compare the handling with the A330 real world Simulator I've been in last week for my license renewal. So trying to compare apples with apples here 😉 In the above mentioned scenario the AS A330 handling is fairly good for it's NOT being a study level add-on. The responsivness to aileron and Elevator inputs is pretty accurate and fairly close to the real world aircraft behaviour. What I miss is a certain "lag of inertia" as already mentioned by other users. The difference in weight between a A320 and A330 for landing in real world is often more than 100tons (A320 typical Landing weight 60tons compared to more than 160tons for a typical A330 Landing weight) This difference is even more pronounced under high take off weight conditions with an A330. Fly-by-wire logic is always a key factor for handling characteristics. A certain amount of Joystick Input generates different roll or pitch rates (degrees per second) depending on Speed, Flare mode, wind Gusts, etc. But even multi million dollar Level D Simulators struggle at times to replicate the real world aircraft behaviour. Even the Level D Simulators often show a "over pronounced" sluggishness in my opinion. To come to a conclusion: Playing around with different FSUIPC profiles is a good idea. Maybe AS will further finetune handling characteristics since it is still a pre-release Version. However I think our expectations might not be realistic considering the price segment we are talking about compared to FSLabs.

Hi Tony, I‘m a happy user of the combo you are referring to: ASP4 + REX TD&SC. As always it is very difficult to predict if it is satisfying your standards and taste. But for the mentioned sales price it is surley a no brainer in my opinion.

Hi Folks, at least active sky has a new beta out now. I'm quite confident that this patch covers P3Dv4.5 HF1 compatibilty. So, stay tuned...
