Which default plane gives the highest FPS in VR?

Paraphrasing the question: which default plane has lowest possible system requirement to make the VR experience using MSFS Steam/Quest 2 as good as possible on a low-end desktop PC with an i7-8700, a GTX 1070ti, 32 GB RAM, 950 Mbps ethernet connection and a 50 Mbps 5 Ghz wifi connection.

What should I expect? Also, should I use a cable or wifi? Thank you.

General rule is any airplane that doesnt have a glass cockpit. The more complex systems the aircraft has might play a factor too but not sure. In my opinion I find the C152 is really FPS friendly. I heard people that have really good internet speed find the WIFI better. My internet is on the slower side so I use the cable without issues. Hope this helps.

Actually in VR glass cockpit isnt the case. I have better fps with 172 (g1000) and 208b and even tbm than c152. You can boost fps with every aircraft with

  • disabling propellers (there is prop mod)
  • removing window scratches (there is also mod for it)
  • disabling reactor steam from jet engine and turboprop

How fast is your Wifi internet? Is a 50 Mbps good enough?

Ja, reicht aus. Habe auch die Reverb G2. Entscheiden ist die Grafikkarte

Also for testing performance with lowest demanding scenery, I use the Mt. Everest Discovery Flight but use the camera popup to move to the cockpit. I make sure I have smooth, clear performance there before going elsewhere. Also, the Giza Egypt Discovery flight has the Cessna 152 and that should be great for initial testing.
