Any Microsoft Flight Simulator Fans Here?

Got my Hotas One is. So far really liking it. Throttle feels pretty plastic and cheap but not surprised. Not sure if my F2 button isn't working or it's a problem with MSFS but it'll tell me to press F2 to retract landing gear and it doesn't seem to work. Not sure if there's a way to test the button without hooking it up to a pc.

I found a pic that showed the button mapping but it doesn't appear to be right. So need to study more where each button is and what it does.

Flying around randomly in Austin, TX, where I used to live, and saw the Longhorns stadium!!

This may be a dumb question...but when you request taxi for takeoff, it gives you options like "depart and stay in pattern" "depart east" "depart west".I'm assuming you want to select on in the direction you are going? For example if flying from Louisville to LA, you'd select "depart west"?

Maybe it's a load-in thing, to me because of the tech it seems like it's info streaming (and I have a 1gig dl speed) and not the power of the cpu/gpu? idk, but that video is way better than what I experience

I am seeing the same thing on mine. Now I know on mine at least my internet will not let me do the phototelemetry data streaming is that what is needed to get the details people are getting on their series x.
