    Thanks Mark, I hope and expect your channel to grow exponentially with msfs2024 coming. Love how you cater to all levels of simmers. Your setup is a museum in itself. Pipo
    p.s. "Take control of character" is how you get in and out of your planes. This is not pre-set in case you start with a copy of the 2020 keyboard and set to Shift-C in the 2024 keyboard. This binding is also not on the "essential" list, so you have to search and assign from scratch.

    Lovely presentation as always! Loved the hanger scene, noticed that aircraft with the Hamilton Standard prop! I worked for that company here in the states (Windsor Locks CT.) for 10 years as an NDT inspector. E2E2 - C-130 and DASH 7 blades and their 'barrels' (HUBS).
    QUESTION for you sir: I built my very first slight sim patterned after Mr. G-Lock with the 3 55" screens etc. BUT, what I would like to know is, which parameter in your CLS-60 causes the elevator to move when you bring up the RPM in the 172 ? I have a 172 HAWK XP mod with the 210 HP engine (Reims Rocket) and constant speed prop in my sim. I can NOT get the CLS to respond to the throttle even at full 2800 RPM at take off.
    Perhaps you have the answer? Appreciate your channel, and hopefully, you will have the answer to which parameters in the CLS-60 software I need to increase for that effect. Thank you ! 👍

      I’m going to be adamant that the honeycomb yoke is the one item if only getting one. I think you could tie the vertical axis of the thumb hat to be the throttle. If getting a second item, the Charlie rudders truly help with realism. When I recently flew a real plane, I realized only twisting a joystick was a major mistake in my sim setup.
      The quest 3 qualifies as a decent VR visually. I still need to test out the longevity when plugged into the wall and transmitting data over 6e. Battery is only 2 hours

    I wonder about your equipment presentation. MSFS is a game! In fact it is completely sufficient to use Xbox, a CH Eclipse Yoke/throttle for $150, pedals from Logitech for $145 and a simple TV screen. All other higher quality and very expensive stuff is suitable for real flight simulator like X-Plane 12, which you know as ex X-Plane simmer. The failure of the new A330 is the best proof (while XP12 ToLiss A330-900 sends greetings)
