The information published on FlightDeckSource is provided for educational and informational purposes only. By using this site, you agree to the terms below.
Simulation Only — Not Flight Instruction
This is the most important section on this page: FlightDeckSource is a home flight simulation site, not an aviation training resource. The author is a simulator builder, not a certified flight instructor, and holds no pilot certificate. Nothing here — hardware setups, control techniques, procedures flown in MSFS or X-Plane — constitutes real-world flight instruction or safety-of-flight guidance, and none of it should ever be applied to operating a real aircraft. If you are pursuing real flight training, your instructor and your country’s aviation authority are your only sources.
No Professional Advice
The content on this site reflects the personal experience of the author building and flying his own home simulator setups. Hardware mounting, DIY wiring, and electronics projects described here are hobby documentation, not professional engineering guidance. Follow manufacturer instructions for all hardware, and take normal electrical-safety precautions with any DIY electronics work.
Results May Vary
Sim performance depends on your PC, settings, software versions, and peripherals. Frame-time numbers and hardware verdicts on this site reflect the author’s machines and settings at the time of testing — software updates change things quickly in this hobby. Your results will differ.
