Hey guys, got some questions for you: How is x-plane 12 in relation to Microsoft Flight Sim on steam? At the time of fs2010, xplane was the poor man's flight sim. Is is better now?

Also I have a old flight yoke and pedals. Can they be cleaned up easily or do I have to buy new?

Hello! X-Plane has come along way. The Addon Situation is much much better these days. The one thing to consider is that the performance, especially on the CPU is still pretty (supposedly it's going to get better with 12.1.0, but let's wait and see) bad. What I appreciate the most about X-Plane is the Freeware scene. I know about the FBW A320 in MSFS, but I'd say that the Zibo is fleshed out a bit more. There are tons of great free plugins to use etc. It's very customizable overall. You should be able to download a demo from X-Plane.com to try it out yourself. Regarding your Yoke, it completely depends on what it is? But you should be able to test it out yourself using the X-Plane Demo!
