Archived from groups: alt.games.microsoft.flight-sim () Hello. I just bought MS Flight Simulator 2002 and 2004. Rc crash compilation / my best rc crashes and moments of the year 2015 presented by rc media world - duration: 10:03. Rc media world 47,897,850 views. Take to the skies in a Boeing 747-400 or the Cessna Caravan in Microsoft Flight Simulator 2002. The new edition of Microsoft's flight simulator features real-time Air Traffic Control, new scenery. I started the games using the keyboard, but i have a laptop (HP) which doesn't even have a numberpad, so it is not the best means of plane control I would ask for. I also have Windows XP Pro SP2 installed. What would be a good USB joystick which would work with the games and with WINXP and is still supported? (Have heard that many joysticks don't work with XP and are not supported). Thanks for the info/advice! Archived from groups: alt.games.microsoft.flight-sim () John wrote: > Hello.

Archived from groups: alt.games.microsoft.flight-sim () I use the Logitech Wingman Force 3D and find it excellent. Tip for FS9 is to set the force strength to 125% to get the proper tension on the stick. Otherwise, if it is set too low, it tends to wiggle around which affects the flight attitudes.

Archived from groups: alt.games.microsoft.flight-sim () John, I used the laptop keyboard to control the aircraft for a long time before my first stick. Had to have the NUMLOC key depressed and engaged. ![]() Then the embedded keypad on the keyboard can be used to turn or view. ( had to press shift key plus number key to change views if memory serves me correctly. Such as 'shift4 looks left, shift 6 looks right, etc. Hope that gets you flying till the stick issue gets sorted out. Danny 'John' wrote in message news:[email protected].
