I think I may actually be able to complete the lessons this time.

Say something other the graphics which almost everyone loves (at least in concept if not always in execution.) For me, as a totally unskilled pilot through several iterations of the MSFS franchise, it’s the pattern approach gates. Even if I could navigate to the destination airport, I could never get lined up properly for the landing. My landings are nowhere near perfect yet, but now I have a reason to keep on trying. Thank you, developers.

Is there a way to add personal music as there was in FSX? Agree that the music is very nice and mellow, but I want something a bit more dynamic.

I configured the install to put the files on my new SSD drive I: and let it run while I was asleep. I was concerned that the installation screen implied the install was going on to my C drive but in the morning everything was on I. Perhaps it installs the download to a temp file on C and then unpacks and installs on your chosen location. All’s well that ends well, but confusing.

I wanted to create a manual cache for Virginia to reduce scenery load times. No problem setting up the cache, but when I tried to paint the area to include there is no grid. Anyone have experience with this configuration step who might be able to help, or us this just a “bug?”

I am used to the yaw left on takeoff for which right rudder can compensate. Left yaw is flight is new. I think that I need to configure joystick buttons for rudder trim. Maybe it should have always been this way even in FSX. KIrby

My apologies - thought this was the form. Re-posted in appropriate area, hopefully. Moderator may delete original post here.

I have had MSFS installed for over 20 years beginning with an Atari 800 and I have never had a problem with input until now. I am hoping someone can provide guidance. In the very old days I used the keyboard, but not a mouse. Now I have a Saitek Aviator 01 and a Logitech extreme 3D Pro joystick. The Saitek is recognized but not configured and the Logitech is fully supported. I used the Logitech after installation and everything worked fine except the throttle. Sometimes idled at 50% power setting, reverse axis did nothing, never knew what to expect of basic Cessna 152. Ditto with Saitek. Removed throttle from joystick configuration and used the keyboard (F1-F4) with sluggish and unpredictable results.. went back to straight defaults and the Logitech worked for about 30 minutes and then ALL joystick input vanished. Are other people having problem with their controllers? Do you have Dead Zone and sensitivity settings that work? incidentally, I seem to need rudder trim in straight and level flight or I drift left. I never noticed that before. Is it normal for single prop airplanes outside of takeoff? Love the scenery, but...... All advice is appreciated
