A look at the sensitivity settings for MSFS. If your using different settings, let me know in the comments below 👍
Also too with your info I've played with it a bit for controller settings for Xbox and the rudder is good with a bit of dead zone plus less reactivity smoother sort of pedal feel I guess
Some planes OK others crazy I thing I get older controller this a320 system is nothing but trouble I can't do every plane alter settings I never have done this before
alright sir ! thks !
I have thousands of hours on A320/321 and in the sim,the roll and pitch rates should be much higher but I can't find any settings that make it close.
If the roll rate was like the sim there's no way we could handle accurately in gusty crosswinds.
Do you know of any settings that can considerably increase roll and pitch rates?
@@Mark-oj8wj I don’t unfortunately
Mark,
I like to thank you for your time and effort bringing up these informative vids.
As an older flight-simmer I appreciate the videos and they are still helpful.
As I guess with this MSFS a new generation of virtual pilots will find your channel and value the content.
All the best and I keep watching!
First thing, your channel is amazing. Second thing, thank you once again for your help. I am relatively new to the alpha/bravo controls and this really helped with all my planes. The Seneca, Kodiak, CRJ's, Arrows, Zenith and the DC-6. I will probably tweak with these more but you left a good foundation to go off of. Thanks again.
I recently had to do a re-launch of msfs and once set up reviewed your "sensitivity " video. Your instructions were spot on for my aging ch yoke, pedals and quadrant!
Well done,and thank you.
John
Excellent advice - as usual. Thankyou and it was good to see the Cessna yoke mentioned. That one seems to have been lost across TH-cam but there are probably hundreds of people still using it, including me because of its full range of movement and very much smoother action than the standard Logitech/Saitek yoke.
So far the best explanation of "Sensitivity" settings in MSFS 2020. Very clear and to the point. An excellent teacher.
PS: If you haven't already, repeating the lesson with HoneyComb Alpha Flight Control and Thrustmaster TPR Pedals would be helpful. As you said, the resolution of the HoneyComb yoke is high. Ditto the Thrustmaster TPR rudder pedals.
Mark, a very well done tutorial in so many ways. And, you speak in a natural voice that is easy to follow without constantly having to go back and hear it again. Well done, thanks.
I have always lost track of what is what without this kind of tutorial. Thank you much! Cheers!
I fly the C208B almost exclusively in MSFS and I can't thank you enough for this. You're quite meticulous in your manner of explaining. I have watched your video several times to keep refreshing my recollection on these fine yet essential fine tuning details.
Glad the video helped 😀
This tutorial was extremely helpful for my An225 on my Logitech F710 gamepad. I really learned how each setting works and now I'll be able to really make my planes flying like I'm expecting. The AN225 was flying like a paper plane, now it looks heavy and slow. I love it much. Thanks a lot for the tutorial.
So far this is the best explanation of the controls I have watched or read. My control settings in MSFS have not been exactly good like they are in P3dv5.1 thanks SimHanger.
Finally a great tutorial on sensitivity. Thanks
Really outstanding tutorial. Very clear and brilliant production standard.
Once again a very informative and helpful video. I appreciate the well paced manner in which you convey the information - as I switch between TH-cam and my PC. Thank you very much for your many contributions to the world of MSFS 2020! You have enhanced my enjoyment greatly.
Thanks SimHanger, you're still my go to for 2020 tutorials!
Mark thank you so much for these great tutorials. Incredibly helpful. This one in particular has made a huge difference to the feel of flying my GA aircraft.
Hi Shel, glad it helps 👍
Excellent video, lots of good infos. With the last MSFS update, my Alpha Bravo did not respond as they used to be. With your video I correct them and now I am flying as I love it 👌
Guess what - I found it SOOOOOOOOOOOOO usefull!
Thank you for all the time you donate us by scripting, recording and editing your detailed, informative and pleasant videos.
Always blue skies & Greetings from the Beautiful South - from BAVARiA,
Yours ART FLY █ -)
Excellent video and explanation of the various sensitivity settings. Thanks for this an all you videos!
Best I've seen so far, great job. This has helped me considerably.
Thank you very much Capt. It takes a lot of time and dedication to do these videos, and you get lil in return. Great explanation and editing. Thank you very much, it helped me a lot!
Well well well.. your excellent presentation just made me realise I had some problems I never knew I had, let alone could fix! Kudos to you my friend. My sim experience just got a MAJOR boost. Cheers.
Thanks again for this tutorial sir! I tried to fly the new Kodiak 100 and it was all over the map. I revisited this video, and with some minor tweakings that you suggested, it now a joy to fly.
Thank you very much for this, this is immensely helpful. 🙏🏼
I’ve been meaning to fix the sensitivity and was also having trouble snaking down the runway (the rudder pedals have become a particular annoyance). Good to know that can be fixed. I tried to show my father this sim before I got all the sensitivity worked out, and he managed to do a few acrobatics (loops de loops) in the Cessna 172 because he was massively overcompensating for everything.
Im learning new things while watching this video other than just changing the sensitivity. Amazing!
Just picked up MSFS on the Steam sale. Thank you for the guide, very helpful indeed!

I have been the owner of Honeycomb Alpha and Bravo for a few days. I have been flying in flight simulators with joysticks for 15 years. Saitek, Thrustmaster and Titanwolf. Now everything has changed. I now control aileron and elevator with my left hand and thrust with my right. I knew all the buttons on the joystick by heart and found them blindly. With the Bravo and Alpha, however, I have to look and I am no longer 100% on the ball. Because of the new control units, I have to relearn how to fly even after many years of experience. Precise flying and safe landings are currently out of the question for me. I have already tried a few settings, but I still have a hard time with it. I will now test the changes shown in your video and hope that they will help me. Very good video and thumbs up. Happy Landings!
Thank you for posting this.
The most excellent video on this topic I've ever seen. thank you.👍
Brilliant video, thank you :) Your detailed explanation was extremely helpful :) I've been a MS Flight SImmer since FS4 and in later variants would always adjust the sensitivity settings. I've been simming in FSX for quite a while now with masses of addon scenery and all manner of mods and utilities, I've been a bit reluctant to jump over to FS2020.
Within the last month I finally decided to install FS2020, given there's been a bit of time for bugs to be sorted and input from third party vendors and the community to make the whole experience more enjoyable. It's quite a whole new ball of wax though, and a bit of a learning curve familiarising oneself with it all.
Thanks to your video I now understand where and how to adjust all these different sensitivity settings. I thought flying some planes was a bit way too touchy, thankfully now I've been able to make some adjustments and make the flying more enjoyable and realistic, as possible at least :P
I still have a gripe over the trim in this sim though, despite spending quite some time adjusting the sensitivity settings on an axis controller on my Saitek X52, the trim is just way too sensitive and completely unrealistic. It seems it's something, going back through previous versions of flight sim, that MS has never been able to get a handle on and sort it out effectively, for some reason or another :P
Well I have to say, revisiting this tutorial inspired me to get even more creative with my Saitek X52 in order to master that damn MILVIZ 310 and I absolutely NAILED it. Who would have thought to dial back the extremity as well as the sensitivity to achieve the result. Even my trim setting needed serious dialing back. End result = no more twitching and ballooning!! Smooth take offs and landings are now consistantly common.
I ended up saving the new profile as GA AIRCRAFT because I am now nailing every landing with an assortment of C152, C310 and C414.
You sir, have breathed new life into my flying yet again and I cannot thank you enough.
The C310 is my favourite aircraft in sim. Love it. 👍
Hi, used your settings on my HOTAS 4 on a Cessna 152 and it vastly improved my control of the aircraft. Thanks very much for the information it was very much appreciated and helpful.
Thanks for the video! Excellent explanation of all the settings.
Thank you very much Mark, its always a pleasure to listen to you. The finer details on this video were very, very helpful.
Thanks Michael, glad it was helpful. 😁
What a helpful video! Thank you so much for your help! Wish you all the best, Boris 🇨🇭
Great videos! Thank you for spending your time on creating these educational videos :)
Need this big time. Thank you.
Just bought MSFS, and this is video I was looking for - thank you. Subscribed.
Excellent video, thank you so much. This has transformed my flying experience!
Sir, you make the best tutorial videos hands down. Thanks for taking the time to make such in depth videos.
Thanks for keeping it simple and to the point. My brain doesn't hurt anymore.
Brand new Thrustmaster T.16000m, everything looks perfect in MS FS 2020 sensitivity settings, in windows calibration when I test pushing the stick forward and back it moves on a 5 o'clock to 11 o'clock line. Calibrated, FIXED. Good start - thanks! :)
thank you Mark so much for taking the time,your explanations are very easy to understand ✌️
This was a big help Mark. Thanks.
Awesome info, Sir. Thanks a bunch.
Great explanations to this not so easy topic. Thanks a lot!
Love your videos. Very helpful. Thank you :)
Timely video I really needed. 😊. Thanks
Fantastic video. Thanks very much for creating this How To Guide.
Amazing video, just getting into this, and needed to know how to configure, this had all the details and great explanations.
Excellent job, very helpful. Thank you.
Very helpful! Thank you for your help in this area.
Thanks for your wonderful tutorial, this helped me a lot to understand more about the sensitivity
Excellent video, thanks!
I found this useful. Thank you.
I'm amazed I hadn't come across this video long ago, so here I am in December 2023 finally understanding what all of these settings do - thank-you Mark!
Fantastic video. Now I really understand the settings. Keep up the great work 😀
Thanks 😊
I like how you don't just give specific settings but rather explain each detail and how it will affect flying. Very helpful. Cheers!
Brilliant presentation. One of the best at explaining in simple but very adequate terms. Many thanks.
Thank you, this is such a good tutorial on sensitivity settings!
very well explained, thank you!
Brilliant , nicely explained
Great tutorial. Thanks. Really helpful.
Very good presentation Mark.
Very helpful, thank you!
Excellent tutorial - many thanks
Mark, as a Newbie to Fs2020, this has really helped me.
Excellent video, thank you.
Many Many thanks for this!!! Super
Great video. Thanks
Thank you very much for this great tutorial sir!
Thanks Mark Very helpful.
Thank you for a very informative and clear video….great help 😃
Your Videos are the best, keep up the good work. And Thanks.. Don
Excellent!!
Amazing thank you for sharing.
Brilliant and useful video
Thank you so much for this.
Thank you. I better understand what the each individual settings are all about now. This will come in handy. :)
eveytime i bump into this channel i am simply amazed
Very clear video and extremely useful. I too am flying mainly GA aircraft and a scary time of it on takeoff and landing with rudder control. Needless to say I will be making some further adjustments. I think the sim is overly sensitive where rudder control is concerned so it will be great to have what I perceive to be, a normal experience. Thanks again. New Subscriber. 👍
Very helpful thank you!
Thank you very much.
Finnaly I found a vídeo about sensitivity settings, that talk about sensitivity settings.
God bless you.
great explanation, thank you.
Mark! What a fantastic video. The flaps axis settings for the CRJ, were an eye opener! A coffee is on its way. Buy some tarts!!
Thanks 😁👍
Roberto, tarts on order. Thank you so much. Your generous support for the channel is Truly appreciated. 😀
Awesome video best explanation
Great Video. I know what I will be doing tomorrow.
Just what ive been looking for, cant wait to start dialing in my stick
Good, useful vid 👍
Very helpful - thanks
Very in depth explanation of the settings thanks I have now subscribed
👍 thanks
Thank you!
Thank you so helpful 😊
Greetings from Denmark. I hated MSFS until i spotted your videos. I've learnt a lot from them and now i realy enjoy the sim with all it's complexities ;O)
well done, thanks
Thank You...well done...
Thank you very much!
Another great contribution to MSFS "Self Service", thx! Even if there are many different controllers out there, the provided presets with the linear sensitivities are a real bummer for every newbies to the sim. No wonder that many getting into it complaining about the bad flying physics, when they never got their inputs right. Asobo provided everything that's needed to adjust the controllers, that doesn't mean that they are userfriendly and i don't want to know the percentage of gamers disliking the simulator because of wrong input settings...
Your comments are so true. Thanks
Thanks for the video! Only main thing I can think of specifically is some vendors like VKB, Virpil, MFG and Thrustmaster like to use a separate calibration software instead of the Windows configurator (plus they give all of the firmware updates, special settings, etc.) But, yes more negative sensitivity for GA/heavy aircraft but more linear for stunt/military - really affects the precision/nulls input delays. Try a Spitfire or Extra on linear, they're much sharper (snap rolls and other aerobatics) and easier to control.
thank you!!
