`Let Windows (10) handle it`. What makes anyone think they know better?

What does FSX say about it?

There, I suspect is your problem....
GET Acceleration. Install it. Try again.

"Even though it's a simulator, back taxiing at an uncontrolled field still makes me uneasy. I can't imagine how a real pilot feels"

I'm entirely comfortable with it.
I'm on the ground, they're...

Check that your controls are not set to disengage on pause.

Assuming Windows 10, Go to Universal Serial Port device management, ensure it is NOT set to `automatically allow device to turn off...

Flying right to start with, manipulation of radios/instruments, remembering to use landing gear and flaps as required.
That's where I would start...

Expectation is as much based on expectation as reality.
I never expect a DA40 to achieve 150 KIAS, except in a dive. The TDi is a modest-powered aircraft!
The NG is the one, I believe, rendered...

Never had an issue with ASP3D, so chances are it's your settings. Follow Trevors' guidance...

Did they ALSO reinstall FSX? Probably not, so you could be messing any number of SimConnect or Visual C++ redistributables...
You need to be much more thorough with what you, and you shop, have done.

Simple: We still have lockdown in UK.
So ANY desire to fly has to be tempered by the greater desire NOT to inflict damage on my fellow passengers.
I have no desire to KILL them, although I do see...

I am another one approaching dotage, and no longer have the time nor the inclination to travel. I am a qualified pilot mind, so don't desire to completely remove travel from the itinerary. Just can't...

I was, obviously, concurring with the first answer.
Your Matching GPU will gain NOTHING from a GPU upgrade.
Clear?

Concur. Your GPU is NOT the limiting factor.

It's `loft` suggests height is in use to provide full lateral and distance coverage.
Now, tell us WHAT airport?

Then SOMETHING is altering the base settings, assuming you're not.
Suggest finding that something and we can then tell yu how NOT to have it make thise changes.
Locking the FSX.cfg woiuld be my...

SO, please explain what is actually happening.
All alterations to basic settings are in that .cfg file.
Have you changed that, AT ALL?

Forget MSFS 2020, it's not right even after 6 months or more of patching'n'fixing. FSX is too old, and outdated. P3D would be my choice. P3D is a good choice for something you can actually fly and...

But DO tell us what you did? Mixture would have to be optimised, even at 8,000 ft ASL.

You assume, incorrectly, that Microsoft is back. They haven't done any more than farm it (the sim) to outside contractors!

And the quality of thir work is woeful at this point, and certainly no...

Which sim is this representative of?
I've never seen such in the latest P3D, for example.
Floating buildings maybe, but not ships, NEVER ships...

I'm more than familiar, having most of their planes.
This one is just luverly!

Yes, I've updated Version 1 thru Version 5.1. Same process every time.
Older versions are still available, if you need to back-date instead of update.

The ONLY place is Lockheed-Martin:

My flying club has about 10% female flyers, and some of the blokes are suspect, in my opinion..!

Eurocontrol regs. Dunno `bout you Aussies though?
