MONITOR AND COCKPIT:
The chair and mounting system for your controls is actually 100% optional, but I’ve found that something like this would be super helpful.
There’s no reason you couldn’t use an office chair and an old desk you have sitting downstairs, either, so build accordingly. No reason to purchase everything on this list, but purchase what seems right for your situation.

AVIONICS:
Your avionics are ALL onscreen. They are manipulated and viewed through 2 24” touchscreen monitors which are either sitting on a desk in front of you or mounted to a rolling floor mount for VESA mounted monitors.
The avionics, GPS, radios, transponder, and autopilot (and a whole lot more) can be manipulated with a dual encoder that is compatible with Air Manager.

You can use X-Plane or Microsoft Flight Simulator for any and all of this build, all of the peripherals should be compatible (should be). I still recommend PC and X-Plane all the way.

Did MSFS 2024 Fail Right Out Of The Gate? Like Cyberpunk 2077?
มุมมอง 1.1Kหลายเดือนก่อน
MSFS 2024 just launched, and let's be honest, I haven't seen a good review, yet.... I might have missed it, but all I've seen is glitch after glitch. Did MSFS 2024 fail right out the gate at launch? I hope not... Kind of like Cyberpunk 2077, you remember when that game launched a few years back? It will never recover even though they made the updates to fix it. Let's hope this doesn't happen wi...

I stand corrected, all! The additional smaller monitors for my home flight sim (the ones running the G5's and 530/430 combo), d. NOT run on Integrated graphics. Instead they run on technology similar to DisplayLink in which there is a small graphics processor in the adaptor that converts the video signal appropriately.
