Addon for my TCA Throttle came today, got the whole set now! Apart from a couple of switches not working (Has been an ongoing issue with the throttle) the flaps, brakes all work though.

Where did you get it from ? I've thought about getting this to replace my ageing X55 HOTAS but stock scarcity seems a real problem.

Nice; I pre-ordered the throttle/stick set in August but it was cancelled by Amazon within a few days of launch; picked up the X52 HOTAS Pro via Amazon last week; its been great but a couple of buttons on on of the "hats" aren't working so I'll need to swap it for a replacement eventually (2 year warranty) will wait until there's more stock of either the same HOTAS or the Airbus set though.

Its a great controller isn't it! Makes such a big difference; have you changed any of the default controls?
The Italian Jet is great fun... once I figured out how to start it!

So much better than the Xbox controller!

Only changed a couple from the default mapping. Added the external view camera to one of the buttons and changed one of the view settings. All else seem ok so far. Although I did wonder why my engine kept cutting out - realised I had the mixture dial/axis turned right down :(

I used to play FSX with a mod called PSPassengers - it allowed you to pick up and drop off passengers and handle seatbelt signs and meal service etc. Has a mod been released for this purpose for the new FS?

I think Air hauler 2 may be the closest, has a passenger option, but not tried it yet

Folks, can I ask... I can see there are two graphics settings now, for VR and for standard.
So if I am running the game in VR, I can still see the desktop projecting what I am seeing in VR.
Is this taking away from performance? Should I set the non-VR graphics settings down?

Those with Quest 2, are you using the 1.7x render resolution? Its very slow in VR i have to say (which I am sure is the same for many).
