Hello all, On my TCA Boeing Throttle Quadrant outer rotory knob I have IAS/MACH mapped to SELECT AIRSPEED BUG and the HDG/TRK to SLECT HEADING BUG and the ALTITUDE to SELECT ALTITUDE BUG.  Then on the inner rotory knob I have it setup when turning it right, it's mapped to PLUS and to the left, it's mapped as MINUS.    Using this setup works great with the PMDG 737.  I can turn the knob to the IAS/MACH and change the speed using the inner knob to plus or minus, then change to HDG/TRK and do the same for the heading change and so on with the ALTITUDE knob, ect..    This setup does not work with the E190.  For the E190, instead of using PLUS or MINUS for mapping the inner rotory knob, I did try mapping INCREASE AUTOPILOT REFERECE AIRSPEED and DECREASE AUTOPILOT REFERENCE SPEED to the IAS/MACH outer knob and INCREASE HEADING and DECREASE HEADING BUG for the HDG/TRK and INCREASE AUTOPILOT REFERENCE ALTITUDE and DECREASE AUTOPILOT REFERENCE ALTUTIDE to the ALTITUDE knob. This did get the numbers in speed, hdg, and alt, but all at the same time. When I would turn the outer knob to the IAS/MACH the speed numbers, altitude numbers and heading numbers would change at the same time so I can't change the seperately.  I don't know if something else has to be mapped for IAS/MAC, HDG/TRK, ect. in order for it to work seperately or if the setup that works for the PMDG 737 and other aircraft is correct and there is a bug in the FSS EJet. trying to map thesse controls.   Does anyone have the FSS EJets with the TCA Boieng Throttle Quadrant and the IAS/MACH, HDG/TRK, Ect. working correctly? If so can anyone provide me the proper mapping of these controls.   Thanks you all very much

I had an old model airplane with a Cox .049 gas engine that needed a string to start it.  Got my finger whacked a couple of times flipping the prop by hand!

Hi. I do not want to confuse you.   What Nels stated, about what is best for the future: >If you're going to do this, the only choice is the latest version as that's what the developer and community are supporting.<<   My input is about the present, and somewhat disappointed with the approach that LR is taking. It would appear that GA in Not something they are very interested in, and they do not  understand that if any user cannot see the controls it renders the model useless. There are other issues with thC172 / GA acft., but this is is a show stopper for most users.   The process, to select what works  for you, is relatively simple. I would Download both  Demos, they can coexist on the same Drive / PC without interference, and try them. If you can get past the Dark cockpit, and can get above 30FPS, in the default mode, XP12 would be my choice. To test for the Cockpit knobs view ability select a Rwy the points into the low Sun, Rise or Set and go inside the cpit. I run 4K, at 90FOV, you may want to use something else? Post here for more details / info. That said that is only the start of your adventure, if you are like most RW pilots you will likely not like the lack of Ground references, Scenery, Ground handling with Xwind, Flight model / dynamics...

If you want to give MSFS a try, you can sign up for the Xbox PC Game Pass trial for $1 for 14 days. This will give you access to the base edition of the sim. If you decide to go with MSFS, you can cancel the subscription and buy the sim outright.   https://www.xbox.com/en-US/games/store/game-pass/CFQ7TTC0KGQ8?rpid=9NLV3X229LG1   Note that while there is a boxed edition of MSFS, it doesn't remove the need for an online connection and will still require you to download every update since the discs were printed. Best to stick to the MS Store or Steam online stores.

Sorry, my apologies! Somehow hit reply to the wrong thread.

Meanwhile, our group of Veterans are back having "done" Thiepval, Beaumont-Hamel and the Ulster Tower.(The Ulster Tower make the best tea in Continental Europe, really recommended) So we too can return to "Blighty". Charlotte Allen, 5 feet nothing, with the look of Marilyn Monroe but with a fringe, guides our passengers gently back to their seats and we can get airborne again.   As we climb into what was a clear blue sky, the weather starts to change   We try to climb over the cloud aware that there is a cold front somewhere out there...   Then as we start to think about alternatives, there is Le Touquet, sighs of relief all round.   Being as Sean Beckett did the take off, I get to do the landing Not quite on the centre line but close. Mind you there is always someone (critical) watching!   Everybody off. Again, we are here to clear customs.  The Veterans moan about Brexit, with some very old Anglo-Saxon words being used. Charlotte (Charlie to her friends) doesn't turn a hair. And again, the French Customs are their usual efficient selves.

Hi loki, thanks but I'm afraid you may have misread my messages. It's X-Plane what I'm wondering about, As for MSFS 2020, I've been using it since minute 0 😅

I stand corrected, the Nardi 333 is available for MSFS  

Hi Nels, this is probably the only question I'm still unclear about. Latest version is X-P12, but as flytv1 said, this one seems to be still in beta phase (much like MSFS 2020 for a couple years), and you can't compare the myriad of available add-ons for X-P11 to the relatively few XP12 community contributions so far. It's a situation I'm familiar with, in the racing car simulation community. Both XP versions are available from Steam, but X-P11 is today much cheaper (obviously). Anyhow, thanks to both for your advice. Reflection period starting... ⏲️

Hi Sirrus, So great seen it your aircraft and a very nice texture stripes. cool       Firefalcon Virtual Jet Aviation

A major point is X-Plane does not require an internet connection, MSFS does (around 20meg minimum, 50 recommended).   Currently X-Plane seems to have more variety of aircraft, but MSFS has more impressive scenery.   It's like buying a new car, any will get you from point A to point B with the same traffic and parking issues;  so you consider your other priorities.

Beautiful collection Larry Plus some varied weather What's not to love
