WinWing FCU

[fernando fonseca]

I am using P3D and using the flight sim labs A320 add on , just purchased the WinWing FCU but it does not work at all. Do you guys have any idea what I could do to make it work?  Are they compatible?

Natively WinWing will not work with our P3D product line, it may work via Mobiflight or similar. 

WinWing hardware has native integration with our MSFS Product line

And why doesn’t work with P3D line? Can’t understand…it’s crazy

Because the interface that WinWing uses, does not exist in our P3D products.

And do you expect to provide some solution to this?

Personally, I'm waiting for a solution to this so I can buy MCDU and FCU.

So you expect a company to develop compatibility for a product of theirs which was developed basically 3 simulators ago (p3dV6,msfs2020) and current msfs 2024? 
 

thats the equivalent of asking microsoft and nvidia to release new drivers for your rtx5080 because you like windows 95 so much. 
I’m looking for common sense in your question but struggle to find it. 

the p3d line was developed in a different timeframe with limitations and expectations from a different era. 
my suggestion would be that if you want the goodies, grow with where the market is and leave legacy where it belongs, in the past.

I suggest you explore Mobiflight and Spad.next as I believe they can achieve partial compatibility.

Sooo, when can we expect FsLabs in MSFS 2024? I getting used too used to Fenix with WinWings and MCDU.

So far no answer from Mark Visch on this one 🙂

I'm still in P3Dv5 and I think it's way better then what I saw so far fromMSFS2024

P3D has served me well, but I did a flight in P3Dv5 and it became clear to me that it is WAY behind MS2024. In all areas. Even with add on airports and aircraft. The flat taxiways and runways makes it really unrealistic. I have kept it installed as a back up for training with the 320, but some months ago I finally cut the cord and uninstalled everything P3D. I have not looked back. The current MS2024 320 models are excellent.
i just need a 320 NEO, and that is on its way. Hopefully soon.

I am a p3d user and I have tried MSFS2024 and find it OK, but for two major flaws.

 

- The Pause function is rubbish.

- You can't save the simulator state. i.e. and equivalent of the FS scenario and checkpoint.

Every simulator I have ever uses has these two features and I'm talking power plant simulators and commercial grade aircraft simulators. And it's not hard to do if the architecture is designed with these features as a given.

 

Microsoft call the product a flight simulator, so it is not just a game and in any event my understanding of games they usually can be paused and saved.

If MSFS had these two essential features I would agree with the advice: grow with where the market is and leave legacy where it belongs, in the past.

Trouble is the market is more enamoured with style than with substance.
