Yeah, we all need some haptic feedback, more haptic feedback please!
Also thinking I need a FFB joystick as it’s the only thing that can change the neutral (center) position in a helicopter as speed changes, as happens in a real helicopter.
This is what happens when you keep reading posts on this forum.
Looks like decent condition, and it’s the USB version - good price.
There are a few more on USA eBay, but boxed ones around $150 to $200. They are bullet-proof though so worth a punt I say. Watch out for the too cheap ones - they say for parts only (but they ARE bullet-proof… honest!)
Thanks 
…been looking at those eBay ones. Unfortunately, I was lured over to the dark side a while ago by this forum and I am now contemplating the Brunner CLS-E FFB base to go with my HOTAS grip.
The PMDG 737s are incredible in or out of VR. Pretty intense in VR on a flight plan with VATSIM if you like that sort of thing. But you need some peripherals to help you out like an encoder panel or Knobster that you can easily find and use by touch, let’s help you spend more money 
. Afterall, you made me buy the Wilma, which is a great plane by the way. Also, the Honeycomb Bravo (which I know you are still lacking 
) is a nice acquisition if you get a 737.
Also I’m sure you’ve seen the threads dedicated to those topics on this forum.
Maybe you can stop paying your taxes and join me in Federal Prison so you “too” can fly planes all day with smuggled in peripherals.
This is interesting on ‘which VR headset for msfs- from SimHanger :
I don’t believe you can use frame gen in VR. Someone correct me if I’m wrong.
I like that SimHangar guy, he has very knowledgeable, practical and no-nonsense videos and recommendations. I remember watching that one before I bought the Reverb.
I knew that would happen when I bought one ‘on sale’ from HP for $449 last month… 
PC12. It’s awesome. Carenado but looking forward to SWS release… If it ever happen. Carenado version still epic
CTSL. Flight Design. Fast, lands like a helicopter.
PC 6. MILVIZ Great plane. All rounder. Standard MSFS version doesn’t do it justice.
Sbach 342. Best fun plane on Msfs IMO
C414. Properly sorted plane
C22. Great plane. No fancy GPS, just flying.
Longitude. Still cane believe it’s “free”
Spitfire. Flying Irons. Amazing.
Hawk T1
First three in order, especially when coupled with GTNXi. Not CTSL obviously. Rest random
I used imDisk for some time, and then did some speed checks - OSFMount came out quite a bit faster. It’s also command-line compatible ( nearly ) with imDisk, so your scripts don’t need much changing . I have one that the addon linker runs that checks if I’ve mounted the drive & mounts it if I haven’t, all it needed was changing the actual exe path & then adding a read/write flag.
@Baracus250 don’t sweat SSD writes, you’re fairly unlikely to get anywhere near dangerous numbers. The only SSD I’ve got that’s died is an absolutely ancient OCZ Vortex from 2011 or something. Main reason for a ramdisk rolling cache is it’s just smooth.
I had a close friend moved to Edinburgh to do her PhD and she said that some Scots even email with an accent in dialect.
That pure isnae true! 
Thanks for your first list 
That’s a new one for the list - looks great, not looked into it before! Tell us more?
Just checking this one is the C22-J (small jet by Mario Noriega)?
You only have 9 - do you want to add 1 more? Cheers!
Just go straight to OBS studio, it’ll use your card’s features anyway & it’s far more flexible.
My 3 year old nvme boot drive -which has a swap file on it - is at 98% lifespan left. Not even a concern.
Orbx are doing a sale for those interested…up to 40%.
After flying some new planes, it’s time for a new list.
Honorable mentions : //42 Freedom Fox, SimWorks Studios Zenith 701 and Carenado Cessna 170B.
The 170B missed the list by a hair.
Great list and I agree about the King Air. Once you realize you don’t HAVE to do 80 % of the stuff in the checklist it becomes much more approachable. In the beginning I was a little terrified because of its complexity but now it has become my favourite IFR aircraft. It’s fast enough to do regional hops with SID:s and STAR:s without requiring all the preparation and planning of an airliner. The GTN750 is by far the best avionics system in the sim and I hope that they will add weather functionality one day.
Time for a new list!
Fenix A320 - Nothing else comes close to this, the fidelity of the model, textures, systems and flight model is superb. It’s almost a perfect addon. The only downside I would give it is that it has some performance issues, but with a strong enough computer it isn’t too noticeable.
SWS Kodiak 100 - A great plane, does exactly what it’s meant to and the developers always seem to be striving to improve it. My favourite GA plane by far.
PMDG DC-6 - A great rendition of this classic plane. The built in flight engineer is incredibly useful, sound and systems are very good. The only downside I would give this is that the 3D model could be improved. The external area around the cockpit and the passenger windows are quite blocky.
PMDG 737 - A good rendition of the Boeing 737, all sizes of the NG family are now represented. The only downsides I would give this are the lack of an EFB. We have been promised they are working on one, but It’s been “in progress” for something like 9 months at this point. Other developers have built complete planes in the same time frame. Without the EFB planning the flight, and setting up the aircraft to how you want it is a clunky affair using the FMC.
Justflight BAE 146 - A great little regional airliner, and as a British person close to my heart as the last airliner designed and built in the UK. No real downsides I’ve noticed to this plane, does exactly what it’s supposed to. It’s an older design and requires quire a bit more setup and manual work than more modern jets.
Aerosoft Twin Otter - A good plane but still has lacking sound, and some long standing bugs that are still yet to be fixed. Aerosoft don’t seem to really update their models much after release for MSFS so far, so might be stuck as it is. Behind the small issues it’s a solid plane though.
FlightSim Studio Tecnam - The newest plane I’ve bought, very good so far. Having a full built in walk around, and state saving between flights is a great feature to have. Very interesting GA aircraft so far.
FlightSim Studio E175 - Most people are aware of the Early Access controversy. It’s slowly getting into a better state, it’s rough but what is already there is good. It has a lot of potential. When it gains VNAV and the ability to more easily import Flight Plans/Weight/Fuel from the EFB it will be moving pretty far up this list.
Inibuilds A310 - Haven’t got to fly this more than a few times, but a very capable aircraft, especially for free. I don’t fly it much due to not many still being active, but it’s a well made plane. My only downside would be due to it being a stock aircraft the time between updates for it is massive. We are only now getting a ton of fixes for it in SU12.
Inibuilds AN-225 - Another recent purchase of mine. I’ve only flown it twice so far, but what is there is great. It still has some bugs and issues that need to be worked out, but for $20 it’s an incredible plane.
Or as my sweet wife would say ’ so you’re spending real money on fake planes in a fake world hmmm’ well she has a point I guess…
dw
Much cheaper than “spending money on the real planes in the real world I have in a fake world” 
Haha, you can’t win mate. Could pretend it’s not real money but money you earned from taking cargo or passengers to their destination. Who’s an extra bit of fanstasy on top gonna hurt
Or you could have a comeback about make-up costing real money and that is “fake” but that sounds a dangerous path to travel
BTW, good discount on Cowan 500e at Orbx here!
