What are the must add ons for X-plane 12 that I should have?

I understand this may come with lots of opinions which I am grateful to have more perspectives from many but I will list what I currently have.

Autoortho

Simheaven

Air manager for my touchscreens

Currently running 3 monitors 5080 card and 9800x3d (getting 44-55 fps on 3 x ultra wide screens)

I would appreciate if you guys can suggest add ons to enhance the game more visually if possible. I know the simheaven pro just came out so I am not sure if thats a good suggestion but for someone getting into xplane I would appreciate as much input as possible.

Track IR and triple monitor set up

So I have three 34 inch ultra wide monitors that I use with flight simulation. I also had previously bought IR track. Is anyone in here using track IR with triple set up, and if so, then how are you implementing track ir? Are you using individual render windows with the games that you use or using Nvidia surround or a combined resolution solution as such? Would appreciate further insight.

Coming from ms2024

Couple of words to everyone attempting to help, I appreciate you for any input! I am switching from ms2024 and have used X-Plane in the past in a very limited time.

  1. Im still having issues fine tuning my thrust master rudder so that it is not too sensitive. I feel like I tried every possible way to adjust sensitivity and is just too sensitive specially while taking off even using small corrections to counter left turning tendency.
  2. Been using an EFB in flight simulator to do all my flight planning. I can program my routes into the g1000 cessna 172 but I would much rather find out if I can use my iPad on a kneeboard like in real flight to see, program routes, and etc. Are there any apps that connect with x plane 12 that I can output real time information of my flight direction, route, and destination?
  3. Last, any helpful information to help me transition better would be most appreciated.

multiple monitor set up

I been seeing a lot of negatives about performance in ms2024 when it comes to multiple monitor set up. I know you can use one single view to span across multiple monitors and that there is the render option to create more windows. Is there anything that people are doing to run multiple monitor set up with great performance, anything I need to download? Would appreciate the feedback.

Ms2024 content information

I just joined the community so if I overlooked something I do ask for forgiveness. What are the best sites to download aircraft for 2024? Or if anyone can point me to a great source or sourcesI would appreciate.

528i 2012 Fuel Pump Corrosion at connector

Last Saturday I was about to home while being at Target and my car gave me a fuel system malfunction. At first I thought it was the module since I received a no current error message in ISTA. After replacing the module with an aftermarket one the error actually went from no current to no communication. Previous owner (my brother) replaced the fuel pump three years ago so I doubt it was the fuel pump until I lifted the connector at the low pressure fuel pump to find out it had corroded. This also explains the fuel leak error I had a few weeks ago that hasn't gone away. It appears I have to replace the fuel pump because of this, do I also replace that pig tail connector? I had used electronics cleaner to clean it and after doing that the car actually fired up just fine which tells me this was the issue all along. Also, what is the part of the pig tail connector?

Post written test ground review

I have my ground review coming up and I will be going with my cfi over the information I missed from the written test. Just want to come in prepared. I have a print out of all the codes and used the sportys app to find out what they are. What is the best way to come prepared for the ground review once I know the codes?

Instructing post 40s students

Being a 41 year old student I try to be as proactive as possible with making sure I cover and study what I need to. In fact I got started with the wonderful advice here from this group. For those instructing, what is your experience instructing students my age and what helpful advice if any can you offer?

Why do many people in here hate Captain Steve?

I mean he does seem a bit strange and at one point I did like his content until I joined this community. I wonder if anyone in here has ever had any interactions with him on a professional level.
