**** Official Microsoft Flight Simulator Thread ****

I've just picked this up and enjoying flying around my local area. One thing I've noticed in the default Cessna, it's always pulling to the left so I've having to keep my hand on the joystick to correct this. Is this how the Cessna flies or have a got a dodgy joystick?
You can also try increasing the deadzone on the stick to see if the effect goes away or reduces.

If there's no change then you can just reset it but if there is then the stick is pulling or might just need calibrated.
 
Also just in case it's on steam, this I found useful for any controller in steam, go to Steam\Settings\Controller and open the config for your controller and check things like the dead zone, steam sets massive dead zones

Simple test, try flying a jet, citation or something. If you still get it, it's probably your setup. If you don't, then it's just the prop wash being simulated properly.
 
Yeah, it's torque from the prop spinning. The strength varies depending on the power setting. More power/higher prop RPM, the more torque there is, there more right rudder is required.

I fly RW and always have to use right rudder to keep the aircraft in balance.
 
Unless you have rudder pedals you should probably change the settings to auto rudder which will eliminate this for you. If you have rudder pedals then as FBi7 says this is expected behaviour and you need to compensate using the pedals.

MSFS2024 coming 19th November.


I bought 2020 on release day and bought the premium deluxe version. Think I'll hold off this time and see what the general consensus is in reviews.
 
I installed this again yesterday to see how it played now I've got a 4090 after playing originally back on a 3090. I'm baffled by performance at 4k. My LG OLED is a 120hz one but for the life of me I can't seem to understand why I'm nowhere near 100% gpu utilisation when I'm not hitting my 120fps cap. My gpu sits around 60% when at like 80fps.

I'm using dlss set to quality.

And anyone know why frame generation is greyed out no matter which settings I choose?

Your 4090 isn't being fully used because in most circumstances the sim is CPU-limited, while also being very reliant on a single core.

Frame generation has a few prerequisites, DirectX 12 being one of them.

DX12 tends to use more vram (not an issue with a 4090) and can be more prone to crashing. It's definitely the way to go unless you encounter any problems though.
