FSX Settings
There are a few settings that influence this aircraft.
Options | Settings | Display
• Advanced animations needs to be ON
• Preview DirectX 10 can be activated, but to avoid problems
we advise you to keep it OFF
• Aircraft cast shadows on the ground can be left ON as
it will hardly affect frame rate.
• Aircraft cast shadows on itself can be ON when you got
a fast machine, but it will hurt frame rate in external views.
Aircraft | Realism Setting
The most important settings are in the Aircraft settings: realism dialog.
• Flight model: Set it to full realistic. Believe us; it will fly
easier that way.
• Instrument and lights: You do want to control the lights
and the gyro drift is not hard to handle (in fact you can ignore
it). Of course we want indicated airspeed, true airspeed is
totally useless.
• Crashes and damage: Not too important. You might gain a
bit of FPS setting, set this all OFF.
• Engines: Set as shown, but it does not really matter.
• Special effects: Yes, you do want special effects!
• Flight Controls: To prevent FSX messing things up best to
keep this OFF.
