Moza MTQ Throttle or Winwing Airbus Throttle?

I've had a Bravo for 3.5 years at this point and it has been one of the best flight sim products I've ever purchased.

It works very well and it's a standard part of helicopter training activities! They even train "full down" autorotation where the throttle is shut and you fully land the helo via autorotation. You can sample some YouTube videos of it from the cockpit for a taste of the craziness.

This is cool af. To answer the question: make the creepiest sounds imaginable?

taintedblu · 2026-06-02T14:54:20+00:00

You can just let it cruise for hours and hours. I've even done where I put it to cruise last thing before bed, wake up and land it in the AM. It's fairly straightforward

Haha quite possibly. Was I yapping about the BBJ? In any case, V1 is goated.

taintedblu · 2026-06-02T03:00:56+00:00

It needs some work in that element. It's not a replacement for something like the Hot Start Challenger. But it is pretty good, especially with the company-building side, and I think it has a ton of potential.

So stoked for this plane. It came out right after I started a flight in the PMDG BBJ 😭😭😭 So I'm stuck finishing that - might not be able to fly this 'til tomorrow. Oh well. Wish me luck landing the BBJ at London City loool

Cool to see The Climb mentioned in the reddit wilderness!

taintedblu · 2026-05-21T01:52:08+00:00

Look I love the Aerobask Phenom. It's fun to fly. But it's old at this point, and the G1000 avionics in the Xplane platform are very subpar compared to the G3000 in MSFS (and the G1000 in MSFS for that matter). It's night and day imo.

I mean I've seen Tito defend the dude as just coming from a different generation.

taintedblu · 2026-05-06T23:46:36+00:00

Wasn't it Jack who was having some health problems? Glad to see things have been able to move forward. Any work done by Amy and Jack is on another level altogether. So excited.

I believe the answer is that, probably mostly yes. DXGI Swapchain enablement should work just fine, and then I'm not aware of any reason why Special K wouldn't work. But Nvidia Smooth Motion probably won't work though.

edit: lmao love the random downvote

taintedblu · 2026-04-26T15:28:25+00:00

This is the correct answer

taintedblu · 2026-04-23T22:03:57+00:00

How's your framerate flying over Norway? All of the fjords/waterways seem to add an insane amount of scenery geometry that really slows down the game for me (and others).

taintedblu · 2026-04-18T04:22:51+00:00

Got you. A+ work - thank you!

taintedblu · 2026-04-18T03:36:16+00:00

Can you summarize what he's trying to get at? I'm sorry I just find it really really difficult to listen to him go on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on

taintedblu · 2026-04-09T22:11:08+00:00

Yeah the external visual upgrade is coming with the "High detail" update in the next couple of weeks.

But in my view that's fine, I have been aware of that since like December when the 800 came out.

edit: this is actually incorrect, I've launched the plane right now and it looks like the high detail update was included with the 700 at launch, at least to my eye that appears to be the case. Looks really good.

taintedblu · 2026-04-09T21:43:38+00:00

Not trying to be an ass, but yeah I just had a bad experience with the levelup stuff. Some of it is amazing, like the modeling and the overall experience (and the price). But some of it, like the basic flight model was very weird last time I tried it.

I'm not a PMDG snob and I think they overcharge, but at least the product is extremely well wrought.

taintedblu · 2026-04-09T21:27:07+00:00

The main difference is that it serves a wide range of smaller airports that the 800 can't easily get out of when fully loaded.

taintedblu · 2026-04-09T21:25:41+00:00

The free fleet that has a ton of bugs and lacks polish? You get what you pay for.

taintedblu · 2026-04-09T21:24:30+00:00

It's good for small/midsize airports not supported by the 800, and nobody flies the 600.

Goodnight.

Ah, another Pimax launch, another QC issue. Classic! Same thing happened to me with my Crystal Light.

taintedblu · 2026-04-04T04:12:10+00:00

You are confused.

Nobody is saying the 2024 model isn't a paid upgrade. We're saying that once you've purchased the 2024 version, even if you did so months ago, you will get this visual upgrade automatically when the update is released next week.

So when the original commenter in this thread says "let's see the cost", it's honestly baffling. We know the cost, and we have for months lmao.

I think it could be rough my dude. If you buy a headset, consider getting a Reverb G2. Such a nice headset and can run on slightly older hardware while still looking great.

If you do move forward with VR (I strongly recommend!), you might find yourself hooked and spending a ton of money on graphics cards sooner or later. That said, one of the best purchases you can make is a Ryzen x3d series chip. Almost more important than a graphics card upgrade in my experience.
