  • Good evening everyone, a somewhat different video for you all today as I go through my experiences building a Flight Simulator based on the Xbox. In today's video, I go through the processes involved, all the peripherals and the good, the bad and the ugly. I hope you enjoy it, it's nice to have MSFS Xbox back on the channel. Happy flying!

    Oh, and I have purchased different kits for the Bravo from Etsy for the 208 Caravan, the Cirrus SR22, Hondajet, and my favorite, the C310. I also bought a trim wheel realistic cover, and AP knob covers to make it easier to use the AP dials. Even bought an iPad mount for the top of the Alpha for using Navigraph on while flying.

    I have a Series X and I’m FINALLY building a PC for Christmas. Can’t wait to get away from simming on the Xbox. It’s served me well, but there’s a lot of mods, liveries, planes, etc that I can’t get on it.

    Does the Honeycomb bravo connect to the hub for Xbox series x? Can the XPC also hook up to the hub at the same time, and what kind of rudder pedals work for Xbox? Need help thanks

    I am running an Xbox Series X with Alpha and Bravo, plus the Thrustmaster Hotas One stick and rudder pedals. It works really well. The only thing I wish Xbox had was the ability to do VR.

    I don't understand those who are from Xbox are defined as causal gamers who just do it for fun... NO, I am from Xbox and I use planes like pmdg 737 studying it very thoroughly to fly it properly simulating all the procedures, and I use other general aviation planes to practice like Comanche's A2A or a pa28 etc. so we have to get rid of this thinking that those who are from Xbox just play for fun, I know a lot of people from pc's that cost a lot of money who are causal gamers.

    It is really nice in my opinion obviously not like in the pc for ex the a320 and king are not fully developed and you cannot set de MAPP but every other aircraft works so nice and really useful I considere that is useful and you can practice conventional navigation and some gps routes and cheaper than a pc set up to start as a first sim I think it is completely useful not Ivao included but well it is not a bad money inversion. I still say that I loved your sim and I loved mine I have the series x with the turtle beach set up and it works well
