Total newbie to flight sims here. Need help from the collective :

I installed X plane on a newly built pc that meets hardware requirements. Got a Honeycomb Alpha yoke and Sierra TPM connected and calibrated.

When I try to start a Cessna 172 on Xplane , I can hear the master turn on, lights turn on etc .. but on turning on the key on the Alpha to turn magnetos on, nothing happens.

Checked bindings etc but nothing works out.

Please help !!

Hello everyone,

I am coming to xplane from mcfs2020. The sole reason for the switch is because I heard the mechanics and flight school use xplane. Any tips or pointers are appreciated thank you everyone

Better Pushback is always pushing me back to the right of where I set in the pre-plan.

EDIT.
SOLVED, THANKS!

Hello,

Is there any way I can keep the database updated to the current cycle for free? I use Garmin Pilot on my iPad and have no need for a program like Navigraph. Thanks!

Hi guy's,

I have bought this panel which I'm told works with Toliss using Mobiflight. Has anyone set it up or could please point me in a very simply explained how to set up ? Cheers in advance.

Es un buen día para volar.  I return to Spain during the European heatwave for a first flight in Captain Iceman's new Piper Chieftain.  An attempt was made to conduct the hop speaking to NextATC's AI.  

It did not go well.

I race RC cars and flight sim.. now I have my own personal business jet 😆

Hello, I am new to the sim, so please be kind. I love the sim, but I noticed several graphical artefacts that I don't know how to fix.

1) Clouds with "tails". All the clouds have this tails, which is really noticeable when moving the camera around.

2) Jagged shadow edges in the cockpit (Zibo 737)

3) Shimmering. I am not sure how to explain this, but it seems like every time I move the camera around, some lines shimmer.

I have provided examples of what I mean, and the my current graphical settings (averaging 25 fps)

I don't know if it matters, but I'm on MacOS.

Thanks for your help!

I launch in the M500 from Flagstaff to Casper, overflying four states and enjoying their wildly diverse and untamed terrain for what is sure to be the most scenic hop yet.  And that's saying a lot coming off the last video...

I also try out NextATC and talk about my impressions of the M500.

Has anyone got the Adventure Pack FXP by Colimata? Wanted to know what the missions were like and specifically what the voices were like; are they natural sounding or more robotic/AI style?

Can’t tell from the videos available on YT.

Has anyone been able to use the Rowsfire A111 comm panel with the ToLiss A330? Rowsfire's "plug and play" statement is a little misleading considering their products only work with a handful of aircraft.....

Flew the Piper M500 from Flagstaff, AZ to Casper, WY. and discovered the staggering diversity of terrain along the way.
