Top Mach Studios YF-23 checklists missing - can't interact with pre-flight check items - chocks, ladder, covers etc. Please help

I got the YF-23 from the marketplace today. I started on the parking area for a cold start. When I point at the chocks, covers on the engines, etc, to remove them, they are not highlighting and are not intractable. I checked the EFB and all the Checklists are missing.

Can someone else with this jet please check if your checklists are visible on this aircraft and let me know? And could you test if you can remove the chocks, pitot covers etc on the outside and climb the ladder? Then I can confirm if this is a wider issue or just in my case. Thank you.

Any tips for finding animals (photo collection challenge)

As title says i have troubles finding cheetah, hyenas and forest elephants. I've spent hours flying around through yellow squares and never seen any of them. Are there possibly any tips or tricks to make it easier to find them?

Problems Spawning in (walk around) (PS5)

Hello,

I’ve got a really peculiar issue, I’m trying to see if anyone else is having this issue or is it time to just reset.

Whenever I load flight (career and free flight) no matter the aircraft, when I get to the walk around part to remove chocks etc, I’m literally in the belly of the aircraft, can’t move or remove anything…. Just stuck. If I want to continue my flight I HAVE to skip to taxi. It’s been a few days doing it (about a week)

Does anyone know how long these hot fix betas like the current one last?

Thanks

So many crashes

Has anyone else on ps5 had to give up flights because of the memory limit?

If I want to do anything more than Manchester to Luton airport I don't have a chance! I've been trying to do routes from manchester to bodrum in a Boeing 737 max but it crashes almost instantly.

Tried in other Boeing aircraft and pretty much same issue or I can't get any avionics to work at start and have to give up.

Airbus just slightly better but still crashes out to home screen.

Recommendation for keyboard+mouse for PS5

I already have the T Flight Hotas, but I’ve been seeing posts and vids about having a keyboard and mouse set up is pretty crucial, especially when flying airliners etc.

What’s a good mouse + keyboard for PS5??

Cheers!

PSVR2+HOTAS Cursor mode

Has anyone figured out how to move the Cursor when playing in VR with HOTAS only?

Every time I enable the “Cursor mode” I can see the white dot for couple seconds but then it disapears.

I tried to search thru all bindings but haven’t found any to assign cursor movement.

Note: when not using VR mode I can assign the HOTAS stick to move the “camera” so it is possible to get the white dot on any specific control in the cockpit but in VR it simply doesn’t work.

What the heck is going on with this garbage?

This is a run memory issue cause it's definitely not a storage issue? I get it's pushing some heavy numbers but is it not optimized for the PS5?

Please excuse my language. Can anyone explain if this is to be expected consistently?

Just copped the game a few days ago from the PS sale. Been super excited about snagging this game. I’ve already been confronted with quite a few bugs but what’s up with this? Again please excuse my language but this was extremely frustrating after an hour long flight.

TIL: Helicopter Wake Turbulences

We recently discussed the strange turbulence in https://www.reddit.com/r/MSFlightSimulatorPS5/comments/1t7ao2a/pilot\_error\_or\_is\_this\_supposed\_to\_happen/ and as it turns out, these physic glitches seem to be caused by the wake turbulence of other helicopters, which can extend 1 NM behind them and are influenced by the wind direction as well. Which can result in flying through them, even when the other helicopter is way ahead.

We did some extensive testing during the last week and the video only captures some of the observations, but long story short the wake turbulences can make your flight very unstable, even loosing control and crashing. They are very dangerous in low flight near the ground and hard to predict sometimes due to weather and landscape conditions.

I hope this post helps those who struggle with the same phenomenon when flying in groups.

Idaho Bush Strips | Highlights

We did an exceptional group flight session through Idaho's Big Greek valleys yesterday. We were about 10 players with mixed aircrafts. Mark B guided us through this wonderful landscape. Unfortunately some of the models were not rendered correctly, but see for yourself! ;)

I was flying in an Airbus H125 and also captured some moments with the camera drone. Winds got pretty strong, partially we had over 31 kts cross-winds, which made flying especially tricky.

Bonus: Wait till the end, were one of our pilots declared a mayday situation and performed an emergency landing in the mountains.

Enjoy watching!

Instrument Rating Exam Glitched

I’m doing my instrument exam rating whatever and as soon as I land at Sumburgh Airport, immediately my frames drop so bad. The game starts running slow and when it gives me instructions to “stop after hold short line” ,,,, 1. It doesn’t show me where to go 2. I’ve watched a video of someone else doing it so I go to where they went and stop but nothing happens.

This is getting very frustrating, I don’t want to abort because I don’t know if it’ll keep my 10k I paid for or not. Also I’ve already restarted twice.

Has anyone else experienced this? Will they take my 10k if I abort ?

New here. Help please!!😅

Hi guys. I’m new to MSFS and I’ve recently bought the tflight hotas 4 for my PlayStation. I’m struggling with key bindings and I’m having to go to my controller for simple things like releasing the brakes. Does anyone have any tips for key bindings for the joystick?

How to change the copilot/passenger?

I play on ps5 in VR exclusively. I was flying an A320 and my copilot/passenger was an ugly guy with some casual outfit.
It kills all the realism/immersion.
Is there a way to control the default outfit (airliner first officer in this case) or disable him/her completely?

Noob needs help with smooth landings on controller

Hey pilots.

Loving career mode so far, but I need to rack up some smooth landings to move up. Any pointers you can give me? I use a controller.

I have about 30 missions completed, but only one landing that has qualified as smooth on the review (it was 94% 😳.) Since then, the best I have done is 14%.

I've improved on getting lower speed coming in, but never seem smooth enough with the yoke once over the runway. Maybe more flaps earlier? What should trim be set at, zero?

Maybe it's just finding the sweet spot with the left stick and holding it. I will do the trainings for landing again under the initial license.

Anything helps. Thanks in advance.
