For those of you interested in some visuals...

Hi Everyone We are looking for a couple of beta testers that can rip apart a scenery project our team has been working on. Anyone willing to provide solid feedback with an understanding of some of the general and limitations of the current SDK and reasonable time/value that goes into a project like this is welcome. If you are running MSFS 2020 without and major issues, can provide current specs and are good with describing your encounters we would love to speak with you. More than happy to provide a finished copy of the scenery for your time. If you are from the Upper Midwest you might be intrigued. :) This is an MSFS 2020 only project. Feel free to DM me. Nick

Check your DM's when you have a moment.

Its not overkill. You'll be set up for the next couple of years. If you can afford it its fine. FWIW you can have someone build you the same PC and spend probably a grand less. I know everyone loves the Alienware warranty but to each their own. I spent 3000 i9 9900 2080 ti 16gig 64 gig ram Aorus motherboard. 2 tb of SSD etc. There are some solid builders around if you do some research and I got the computer delivered within a week.

Two flights since update. Both in the Longitude ending in a third party scenery and when shutting off landing lights. CTD each time.

For those of you that have it. Its worth connecting to the sim. The compatibility is pretty damn fluid and it brings a ton of new features, especially if you have the add ons for it. The intuitive features that it comes with take a lot of the "sim" work out of the cockpit and cuts back on workload.

Having the weather fixes is good. However, flying around boston last night it was strange to be getting partly cloudy skies and sever lightning. Looks like it still needs some tweaking.

yes. same situation for me. happened on the ground after i landed

Yuri Take a look in the settings menu and see what your flight model is set to. If its on Legacy that might be the problem. I had a bit of trouble that was similar to what you described. During approach or climb out, i would experience extreme banks with the plane. Once I changed it to modern it felt 1000 times better. Nick

Actually...... So it might be more obvious for some others.... If you look at the text boxes on the side of the bush trip section. Not the master page but the one that is dedicated to the regional bush trip. There is a scroll feature. I just scrolled down through all of the trips. They look like waypoints so it easy to miss. I then saw all of the ones i had completed and checked off. Bingo. All good.

Been able tp jump in and out of my nevada bush trip over the last few days. Came in today and all of my progress was gone. Now it wants to start me back at the beginning. On the first try it put me back at the airport I last landed at. However, there was a controller issue so I tried again and it killed my progress. Anyone else face this?? Nick

I went from legacy to modern. I was impossible to fly on legacy (hadn't adjusted the sliders) Once I went over to modern the whole thing felt much more real. FWIW.

For those that are intersted. So what had happened was...... After some testing and tweaking. It was on legacy mode. Good god. I implore anyone having issues with controls or random movements etc. CHECK THAT SETTING. Turned it to Modern and its a whole new sim. Ran a bunch of touch and goes with the C172 and it was like butter. Im slowly finding settings and tweaks that are pealing away the layers of what could be frustration for many others.

Kapitan Thanks for the reply. I versed in p factor etc. Thats why i dropped that line of knowing how to fly. I meant in real life. :) What im seeing is violent roll to the left and right immediately after wheels up. It feels like its fighting a handoff between two systems. Let me put it this way. If left unchecked it would take about a second and a half to put the plane on its side, into a stall and into the ground. With a reasonable counter input it will completely over correct to the other side. This seems well beyond torque from the engine. Ill do some testing tonight and see if i can solve.

awesome. best of luck with your new rig!!!

Steve, This is what I went with. So far everything runs pretty smoothly and dont have any complaints. All setting to ultra. Turned V sync off. Motherboard: Gigabyte Z390 Aorus Ultra CPU: Intel Core i9 9900K 8-Cores/16 Threads Unlocked Processor CPU Cooler: Cooler Master 240mmmm AIO RGB Liquid Cooler Graphics Card: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2080 Ti 11GB Gaming Card Power Supply: Thermaltake 750 Watts 80+ Certified ATX Power Supply RAM: G.Skill Trident Z 32GB (16 x 2) 3200MHz RGB DDR4 Memory SSD: Intel 660p 2TB NVME Solid State Drive Case: DarkFlash Phantom Tempered Glass Full Tower Premium Case Fans: 8 x High performance low noise RGB cooling case fans 600 Mbps Dual Band Wireless Total with shipping was 2899. Paid on PayPal. No tax. I later updated the DDR 4 to 64 gigs. If anyone wants the guys info feel free to shoot me a message. So far no issues with build. Had my IT guy at work check it out and he ok'd it, liked the build.

Steve, I paid a guy to build my PC. Seemed to be a pretty reasonable cost for what I was looking for. Give me a second and Ill dig up my actual specs before i upgraded the DDR. Maybe it may be helpful to you. His service was solid and he was attentive. Nick

Tried searching the forums and the query can pull many different things. So if its been discussed feel free to point me in the right direction. Issue: Feels like im fighting heavy turbulence when in manual control. When Noticed: Immediately after take off and when landing. Decription: Will get violent turns to the left and right that feel like something out of those YouTube videos with airliners landing in extreme cross winds. Fuel is balanced in wings. Winds could be calm but seems to happen at any setting. Hasn't caused a crash but would be pretty unrealistic to safely fly in. Happens in all sorts of planes so far. Caravan, Cit 4, Cessna 172 etc. Equipment: Alpha Controls, CH throttle quad, logic pedals. Footnote. I know how to fly and control an actual airplane so this isn't an issue of me over correcting or something. Just wondering if anyone else has experienced this and if anyone figured out a setting. I also dont think this happened in my first few flights so im wondering if its a gear issue or setting the got changed. Thoughts?

Sorry sorry. Correct. 11g. Used to typing in groups of 16 :)

Dont know if this helps as everyone has different things on/in their computer that will influence the end result. I have a i9 9900, 2080 ti 16g with 64 gigs of ddr4 ram. I have everything set to ultra and typically get 30-40 FPS in any given location. Havent done NYC yet but explored chicago enough to feel confident that it would be similar.
