The question is: how much of that footage is real and how much is CGI (computer generated imagery)?

This is awesome!

I just made my first successful touchdown on Chicago Meigs.

Pretty cool!

Hi all, I just bought the same GPU (GTX780 ti) and CPU (i7-4770K) but with only 8GB. Running Win 8.1 and x-plane.

I would like to learn from other people's X-plane graphic settings. Which settings do you feel work best with this rig?

thanks,

Hi Reece, I just installed the pilotview today and to my surprise (and as far as I can see) it actually works great; a lot better than native trackIr. It seems to track well, I like the 6 DOF a lot and it just feels more natural.

I also totally agree with Keith. I tried to set up my configuration in FSX with more than four USB devices (yoke, rudder, throttle, carb heat etc). What a nightmare! I never was able to set it up correctly. Compare that with X-Plane. Granted, there are a lot of configuration options but those option...

Hi Cyrus, actually, you*can* use the AP in stock 172 in x-planev10 with altitude target and vertical speed target. The only problem is that the stock cockpit layout just doesn't have the controls to set those values. But, if you use a Saitek autopilot stack, you can easily set those values and the A...
