I'm about 3 weeks into MSFS2024 and I absolutely love this game. I play it in VR with Hotas controller. I have some questions for the veteran pilots:

How significant is the bonus if I were to not skip anything?
Does skipping the beginning of removing chocks, covers, etc. impact that bonus?
For long flights is there no choice but to just grit and bear the 30-40 minute flights?
Do the certifications train you how to fly at night or is that just through practice?
What is the fastest plane that comes with the basic version? I was thinking of trying a cross country flight just to do it, or would that be majorly boring and take way to long?

I have a ton more but this is essentially it for now. I try to get in at least 3-4 flight a night when I get home.

Ok so I've had my printer since it came out about 2 years ago, and love it. Been pretty flawless, had a blob of death but just replaced the entire extruder system for $50. Easy peasy. I bought another one to streamline my printing since now I get quite a few commissions. Fast forward to about 2-3 weeks ago...

FIlament got stuck, tried everything and it did not budge so reached out to support... took forever so ended up overnighting a replacement nozzle. Easy. But somehow I messed up my proximity sensor when I tried to level it was triggering even when it wasn't touching... went to Elegoo again, they asked for full video, serial number, invoice order... blah blah... I just amazon'ed the proximity sensor for $27. Got it and fixed it... STILL ERROR!!!

I then decided, screw it let me just replace the whole housing... how much was it again? And the damn thing was $50 for the entire extruder system. (i had forgot since it happened when I first got my printer. I've given up asking for their help. But man this was super frustrating.

Probably going to just buy the whole extruder and see what happens, worse come to worse, I'll have a spare like I have a spare proximity sensor now. Question: Has anyone else e ver had this headache situation before? When it works its awesome, and zero complaints but thats why I got rid of my Ender 5+, always gotta tinker and troubleshoot.

Odor the past week we’ve come three times and the bus system is super slow and it seems not as frequent as the old system they used. Boarding only one bus at a time. Less buses, lines going into the parking lot. Kinda kills the vibe.

I cannot for the life of eod me figure out how to use the flight iPad FBT or whatever it’s called in VR mode. I have to do this dead reckoning mission for training but I’m stuck. I skipped and the next mission says ok start the timer. Same issue and I failed.

Do I need to assign the co tell to a custom setting?

I have no clue how this happened, i just need to figure out what to do next. How do i adjust the bed sensor or reset it or what? I tried leveling and got a "Sensor warning" over halfway through.

I just replaced the nozzle so could I have messed up or pulled out the sensor by accident? The light is always on now.

Note: And yeah, Elegoos customer support was trash on this.
