Same for me.

Sorry, I made the mistake because on their website they talk only about the GTN 750.

It's expensive I fully agree. In my experience, customer support is serious an reactive. And language used values the customer. 1) MSFS TDS : $53.45 without tax. Lifetime license in my understanding. Includes: GTNXi 750 and 650 PMS50: €75 tax included. Premium version lifetime. Includes: GTNX 750 only 2) P3D/FSX RXP GTN 750: $34.95 GTN 650: $34.95 50% on the 2nd product Flight1 Could not retrieve anymore the GTN 750 on Flight 1 website Could only find G500/G600: $59.95

Agree. I mentioned it just for information only as the main TDS software is not quite standalone (contrary to the PMS). Milviz C310, JF Piper Warrior and Carenado Mooney for me. C337 next month 😉

I made a quick study recently to purchase a GPS, please find below a quick high level synthesis of what I have found. First, the developers who sell GPS for FSX/P3D, namely Flight1 and Reality XP, do not have any offer for MSFS. Second, there is an alternative to PMS50, which is TDS Sim: https://tdssim.com PMS50 Model simulated: GTN750 Development: from scratch Degree of fidelity: not all the features of the real Garmin are currently present Free version: YES but with only 'basic' features' Database: 'regularly' updated as I understand Aircrafts ready for virtual cockpit integration: https://pms50.com/msfs/aircrafts/ Impact on FPS: normally rather marginal Pricing: One year – 25.00€, Lifetime – 75.00€ TDS Sim Model simulated: GTN 750Xi and GTN 650Xi (high-resolution display, vivid colours, and additional features compared to the GTN750).The GTNXi is an evolution to the GTN GPS. Development: based on the Garmin Trainer that needs to be installed Degree of fidelity: the features of the real Garmin are supposed to be present, even the enhanced features of the real Xi version (eg. glide prediction) Free version: NO Database: dependant from Garmin Trainer (one update every couple of years as I understand) Aircrafts ready for virtual cockpit integration: https://tdssim.com/gtnxivcintegration Impact on FPS: normally rather marginal Pricing: €59,94 EUR (Both 750 and 650 models are included in the same package) That's all I can think of. If I made a mistake or missed a key information, other mates will be able to add or comment.

A quick feedback. I have identified a new utility: simFFB (click here). Might be useful for you. But for me installation and usage are not clear. I tried AirForce Player but could not achieve to get it work. I tried XP Force, it works... but how to say... it does not provide a good feel as Russel Dirks' FS Force. So I think I'll end up flying without Force Feedback until MSFS supports it OR Russel Dirks changes his mind and makes a FS Force for MSFS.

Sure there can be many reasons for cancelling but in this case I don't think it's because another dev has planned a 787 (which was my point).

AFAIK no other developer has plans for 787 for MSFS. So why would QW cancel their 787?

Thanks for your replies guys, and FlyingGoose for your return on experience.

Many thanks SKEWR for your return on experience. On FSX/P3D, FSUIPC was useful to me to set different profile (GA aircrafts, airliners, rotary wings...) and also for 2 or 3 additional feature (winds, unlimited battery life...). For MSFS, I'll start with the game settings first, as you advise guys, then I'll see. Anyway, at this time I'm only flying GA aicrafts. So no need of several profiles.

Hi everyone, Yesterday was my first day with MSFS and... it was very strange to fly with my MS FF2 stick without Force Feedback support from MSFS. If you own a FF stick, no doubt that you see what I mean. Here's a quick summary regarding Force Feedback joysticks and MSFS: There is a vote ongoing for FF support: click here (please vote) Russel Dirks, the developer of FS Force for FSX/P3D said one year ago that he would not develop for MSFS. I don't have info if he has (or not) changed his mind since: click here One alternative is XP Force: click here Another one is AirForce Player: click here Any comment, advice or return on experience is welcome. Nota: I'm starting a new thread to avoid necroposting since the last thread on this topic was back in JAN 21.

All, thanks for your kind participation. My question has been answered. @jcomm I presume you have uninstalled all your other sims 😉 Regarding Airlinetools, either I have a dramatic loss of memory or you confuse me with somebody else 🙂

Hi everyone, New user coming from FSX/P3D here. In FSX/P3D I had a registered FSUIPC that I used mostly for joystick assignments. Do you recommend to install FSUIPC for MSFS and if so should I buy a license or use the free license (as I recall)? Thanks.

Thanks for your feedback for guys who will have the issue in the future. It's rare to see someone who contributes to the community knowledge in his 1st post 🙂

Really sorry to hear that. Did you notice that "This product is handcrafted"? I've just watched the photos and it looks like the quality is low. Maybe next time you should ask community feedback before buying. Personally I've never heard about this seller and the same for the joystick.
