How Much Does Flight Simulator Cost? | Essential Add-ons, Hardware, Subscriptions...Is It Too Much?
People love Flight Simulators and with the help of addons and hardware, it can become VERY realistic. However, are the costs of flight simulation getting too much? With so many products available, which ones are essential and which ones are just bonus candy if you can afford them? In this video we take a look at the real costs of flight simulation if you want to go down the route of purchasing a lot of the essential (& some non-essential) addons.

*NEW* AI Cabin Announcements - The Most Realistic Cabin Add-On | MSFS & X-Plane
zhlédnutí 16KPřed 12 hodinami
Cabin announcements and pilot announcements are one of the key things we like in our flight simulators as they really add to the immersion. The problem is, they are usually quit scripted and don't really change from flight to flight, unless you spend the time making dozens of recordings for each scenario. Cabby, is the new AI Cabin Crew add on that using AI technology, brings that extra level o...

    I have flown the Inibuilds A320 about three times, however, as you mentioned the FBW a320 has better handling and the cockpit seems more realistic in the rendering of the knobs, lights, etc than the Inibuilds. Also yesterday, I had an issue with the ILS capturing with the Inibuilds, it seems like it did not capture the GS on approach. However, the question is, does the frequencies for the ILS need to be tuned in manually? That is not so in the FBW.

    If I were to add up my simulator career of 20 years, I’ve probably spent at least $5k across sims, hardware, and add ons. Over half of that costs is just the computers. I will say though, when going through pilot training, it helped me get farther ahead and spent far less time in the aircraft, meaning not spending hundreds on the aircraft and instructor so I say the cost was valuable. I’ve got probably 5,000 hours or more of total sim time since FS2000.

    While one could certainly spend a small fortune on addons, it is completely unnecessary. I have not spent a dime on addons for the simulator, but my money has gone for hardware. I have built 2 gaming computers exclusively for flight sim. I fly in VR and have upgraded my headset several times so I now own 3. I bought a YAW VR Motion simulator chair and a Velocity One Flight Yoke. In total I have invested more than $15,000 CAD on the hobby. I couldn't afford it, but I'm glad I have it! I can't wait for MSFS 2024 in November - I'll dedicate one of my setups to each sim.

    Graphics is the last thing they need to work on it looks great already. What we need is a proper ATC for IFR airline simmers. I really hope it's not a copy and paste. I'm on xbox series x, so we don't get all the good mods that pc players get. Therefore, we deserve the right to complain a little more.

    Hi Gavin. This has worked perfectly for me. BUT since SU15, once you have loaded the FP etc and launched the sim, the aircraft appears in the air at the point you chose. When you press fly,. the aircraft is at the same point but on the ground now!! Can you look into it if you have time to see if there is a fix, plse? Keith

  • @bonbondesel
    @bonbondesel Před dnem

    They MUST provide the minimum decent features this time: - realistic flight model - ILS and visual landing aids OK Because in 2024 a simulator where crosswind landing is still unaccurate with PAPI not correct over an ILS leading you in the terrain is unacceptable ! Beauty and other features can't compensate this. And I hope they don't keep the exact old code which comes from FSX in 2007 that makes people require a war machine PC to handle the sim ! Weather radar capability is also very welcome.

    Personally, I’m not impressed. For the main reason that FS2020 was supposed to be the final version with updates as necessary. For those of us who forked out good money to get 2020, including numerous add ons, having to do this again for the next version is not welcome at all. It’s issues like this which made me give up on flightsimming with FSX many years ago.

    Better performance. Of course there does come a time when better hardware is a way forward to improving you own experience. But the minimum specs are very low for MSFS 2024, however that will be on low to medium settings. I just hope that the new code will take away some of the stutters, also the micro pauses that occur as the simulator caches in the "geographical" "tiles", so to speak, as we fly from mountains, to open countryside then suburben areas at low level during the appraoch phase, which is an absolute immersion breaker for many. Many stutters can be the cause of poor internet as we stream in the landscapes from the servers, but I am hoping they optimise that side too.

    @digital_aviator Před 2 dny

    Here's the scoop. They're not missions as far as I know, they are a part of the sim. This was designed by Paul Lange from ACES studios for FS11 which was called "something to do" way back in 2010. Dovetail Games implemented a rudimentary version of the concept for Flight Simulator World, but Asobo appears to have refined it. The original design was you drive to the airport, you get out of your car, walk to the aircraft and do a pre-flight walk around. It's actually integrated into the sim, you choose your aviation 'career' path. FSW from memory you had to complete each step along the way to get to the next level and progress. From these trailers it looks like the whole system has been fully implemented and done the way Paul envisioned.

  • @zsolteditor
    @zsolteditor Před 2 dny

    the ILS part and airport charts reading is weird, TOD sometimes work, on the NX part is flawless, maybe i'm doing stuff wrong :) You have to insert ILS freq in the console because in the MCDU/FMC does not work when trying to insert 111.90 for example. The NX just does it right. Lets wait for the V3 variant. and if you put 100 people as load and 4 tons fuel, 0 cargo, the plane eats up all the 1800 m runway using config 1 and FLEX 58:)) So you have to go full power with flaps 2 to take off. The NX takes off about half of runway, same config, flaps 1. Who is doing it right? On the ground the V2 is way better. The NX is lazy on turns.

    The "three custom voice edits" in the Pro subscription version description is not clear enough. Be warned.

For the High price, I expected a lot more.
