I would say in all sims prior to the latest MSFS, 90% of my flying was done from the "Tower View". I absolutely miss the Tower view, which in essence was a type of fly-by view I suppose!!!!
Omg I forgot about Tower View in old Flight Simulator! Loved that view!I would say in all sims prior to the latest MSFS, 90% of my flying was done from the "Tower View". I absolutely miss the Tower view, which in essence was a type of fly-by view I suppose!!!!
Absolutely ! There's a nice example of it at the end of the video i posted above. I usually used it to play 'RC aircraft model flying' with the lighter/slower aircraft models in FS9 or FSX/P3D. Great fun until i bought a copy of "Real Flight", a simulation of flying Radio Controlled aircraft models (https://www.realflight.com/). Truly fantastic, particularly if you used to do that for real and you didn't have to rebuild your model for like half a year when you inadvertedly crashed it. The sound of that is meticulously recreated in "Real Flight" and used to make me cower and cringe. Hehe
.
No live flyby beyond what the drone can already do in the sim, it's true.
But if you remember to record something, you can watch it every which way!
I believe there is an Nvidia option which allows instant replay of the last xxx seconds, also.
Have you ever considered how good of an RC pilot you would be if you could use your PC Joystick?!?!? I could do all kinds of aerobatics!! It is hard for me to take the joystick movements and move them to the RC sticks.
