Default RE: RealFlight G3 Basics - Newbies apply here

I have used Realfilght since it came out and now I have the G3 version. I have read through this forum and a few others and can say that I have had similar problems with the product e.g planes snap too easily, can't find where to turn off the 3d landscape, etc. My main difficulty now is after installing Add on 1,2,3,5 I can not seem to find the Add on 1 and 2 in the list for plane or airport selection. I can see entries for the Add on 3 and 5, however. I have also had Add on 1 and 2 end up replacing my realflight.exe and causing me to uninstall and reload G3.

I would also like to add my comments on not being able to use a joystick to fly with. I too have installed this on my laptop so I can practice while I travel about, but with G3 I am not longer able to use my Thrustmaster gamepad which worked with G1 and G2. Is there a work-around?

Also, is there any way to not use the Realflight controller as the connector for my field radios? Can there not be an usb connector adapter that allows for me not to use Realfilght controller as a adapter?

Thx
