So I bought a Logiitech Flight Control System with rudder pedals.

And MS FS 2020 CD Pack. Finally, something for me. And I will Travel!

Nice! What flight simulators do you play? I used to be in an online squadron playing brewens Apr 2021 #1

You need the rudder pedals. The twist stick doesn't work well for that. It was the same racing. brewens Apr 2021 #4

Absolutely per my OP. OAITW r.2.0 Apr 2021 #5

I "fly" a Cessna 172 so I don't need prop feathering. But other than that, yes. nt Binkie The Clown Apr 2021 #10

IL2 Sturmovik. That was a lot of fun. Flying missions with coms and everything. I'd like to do that again. So far I see nothing comparable I can do with my PS4. I doubt I'd get another gaming PC.

I was also a beta tester for the Hawaii Network. The first online sim using Nascar Racing. That was a blast. I could get into some online racing again too.

But the new flight control system gives me the system I need. Sticks don't do it.

The brake button didn't understand feathering the brakes.

Now I mainly play NHL 21. I always thought hockey made the best sports game. Now you get the announcers calling the game as you play. It's like being in the Shark Tank around here.
