For me too, i had some problems in 01-2022 when begin with MSFS202 and autodisconect USB make me crazy, but I could solve it.
Respect this issue with aircraft, seems all other planes works properly.
In fact, for me is not a really problem, is only to share knowlegment.
About SPAD next, I saw a lot of “learning and configuration” videos, and for now, I think, IMHO, I dont need it.
As you talk about, drivers from 21 works in the way they are designed, but, I know, there are people who need go in deep for some kind of config that my little brain can not understand.
No problem with this option, but is not for me.
Cheers to all .
