Default RE: FS one by Horizon Hobbies

One other thing that caught me by surprise in FS-One. It seems to actually read the radio output instead of just stick movements. Let me TRY to explain what I mean. When a plane has a servro for each aileron I need to mix in a channel on my JR 9303 (as everybody here knows I'm sure). However, in all the other sims I had to create a SIMPLANE/SIMHELI Model that never mixed in anything since they only seemed to read the stick movements and move the ailerons in the "Right Way".

I was AMAZED that when I started trying out the FS One Funtana I could not get it to fly with my SIMPLANE model. When I taxied it to my feet to check out the controls I found that only ONE aileron moved. I switched back to my real Funtana model (which mixes in Channel 6 for the other aileron) and it worked as it should. Including my Aileron Differential!

I don't know if I missed this option in the other sims but I sure as heck never HAD to do it. I have only had FS One for a day so I am still checking it out but its little things like that that, IMO, move a program from a game to a sim.
