I'm addicted to trying to Ace the training!

Fuuuck!!!

Why am I not sticking the landing correctly!!!

Been trying to get an A on downwind for the past hr and a half :unimpressed:

Set up a short flight (you should have multiple mini landing strips in your area) and watch AI do it, then do it like they do.

One day I did a 1hr 40 min flight, I go to land I'm like "I'll be done in 3 minutes. I spent like 10 minutes taxiing to where I needed to go and stopping.

I aced a majority of the training but the things I either got high B's on or low A's I just said fukk it and started doing flights then when I went back I was able to ace.

Good idea - is setting up an AI flight easy? Have been just in trainings so far. Reagan International is right up the street so I'm excited to finally take off from there.

I've been getting a B on this one but I might just go your route, keep going/practice flying, and revisit that specific course one day

Yeah. It's just cursor mode/active pause. When you come upon or up to an objective no matter what it is the AI does it and you can watch. For instance "Reduce to 85 knots, maintain 1800 feet and adjust flaps 20%" **watch AI do it all then do what they do.

Thrustmaster t flight x.

There's not feedback/rumble or nothing. But it's optimized for Xbox 1/S/X/PC. Once it's connected it's all set, the game know what it is and it's all mapped correctly.
Are there any that have rumble?

Think I'ma finally give this a shot, truthfully wasn't interested but I keep hearing its not only realistic but also really relaxing
Try it, then after a while try it while changing the assist. The "gameplay" changes like it does in FIFA if that's a game you're familiar with. You feel the turbulence more.

My flight sticks should be arriving within the hour :blessed:

The sticks have arrived :win:
So these sticks are smooth :banderas: but I'm struggling to get certain things to work. How do I switch landing gear? in the settings it says f2 which is the zebra colored button on the hotas but it doesn't do anything.

I still landed in Bora Bora on THE RUNWAY with the water landing :manny:
