In Xplane, you may not recover depending on how deep into it you are. FSX you can break the spin with ailerons and elevator (not rudder) only, in less than a 360 rotation/turn try that in a real plane and you could turn a spin into a funeral. FSX the control input will always break the spin, even if the proper technique is not used. Im not saying the others are crap, but performing a spin in XPlane is much more realistic than in FSX. In my opinion, Xplane responds more accurately. As a certificated pilot, I know what its like to be in the air and in/on a sim on the ground. And to illustrate inability to achieve perfection in a sim, I stated that the best sim is in a real plane. It didnt state the entire sim was better or the best. We can make a hybrid orange that will taste like watermelon, but it requires a lot of work to do.Ĭlick to expand.this was not intended to say one is better, but stating that Xplane does model it well, better than some others. You could also make converters to try the combo, but again, it will be hard to do. You can write a program that will load the factors for the 2 and combine them, but that doesnt sound like it would work to well with all the differences between the sims. It cost $8,000 for a base model, and only comes with limited options that can be changed. The more closely resemble multiple aspects of flight, however they can be pricey. Redbird and other FAA recognized simulators do not behave like either. Xplane simulates flight realistically as far as aerodynamics and environmental factors go.įS/P3D simulates aerodynamics fairly well but the environmental, not so much. Xplane adds value to a shape and the weather engine and environment engine affect the shapes values.įS/P3d takes just numbers and removes/adds value based on the weather,loaded from a spreadsheet. The 2 sims use different factors to determine 'aerodynamics'. You are trying to make an orange taste like a watermelon. Questions about SimConnect can be posted in the SimConnect forum.Īny other question that is not specific to an aspect of development or tool can be posted in the General chat forum.īy following these guidelines we make sure that the forums remain easy to read for everybody and also that the right people can find your post to answer it.Questions about terrain design can be posted in the FS2020 terrain design forum.Once airport development tools have been updated for FS2020 you can post tool speciifc questions in the subforums of those tools as well of course. Questions about airport design can be posted in the FS2020 airport design forum.Questions about aircraft design can be posted in the Aircraft design forum.Either post them in the subforum of the modelling tool you use or in the general forum if they are general. Questions about making 3D assets can be posted in the 3D asset design forum.

Tag FS2020 specific questions with the MSFS2020 tag.So therefore we would like to ask you all to use the following guidelines when posting your questions: But having all questions about FS2020 in one forum becomes a bit messy. Which the release of FS2020 we see an explosition of activity on the forun and of course we are very happy to see this.
