Flight Sounds FSX Dual

[Socal pilot]

Just got The Flight Sounds FSX Dual intercom and this is one of those products that is great for what its made to do! Out-of-box, it is easy to set up, use and is very well built. USB Connection time was about 10 minutes, which included mounting with Velcro. The volume controls operate smoothly and include not only headphone level adjustment, but also a volume control for the background noises (engine, propeller, etc.). Simulator (X-Plane 10) configuration was extremely quick and, other than adjusting the microphone level, was ready to use right when we plugged it in. The Intercom performed extremely well with Pilot Edge and we could here the controllers very well without any static or distortion. Also, it has two rear jacks for connecting an external push to talk switch if your simulator yoke does not have one built in. It is great for two pilot applications or instructor-student situations as it has jacks for two headsets.The FSX Dual is well packaged and is shipped with a very helpful user guide. Overall, this is an excellent intercom.

It does look like a good unit. A well-tested alternative is the Flightcom Intercom: http://www.mypilotstore.com/MyPilotStor ... DQodjjwD1w at around half the price.

I used these for many hours with FlyThisSim TouchTrainers and had great luck with them, plus they can be expanded to a 4-place intercom with a small add-on product. It's an aviation-grade intercom and does a great job.
