RE: FS one by Horizon Hobbies
Just finished loading FS-One to both of my computers. Loading took ~50 minutes for each comp. After installing, I ran the latest 1.0.4 revision.
This gives the results of two setups that work with FS-One.
The simulator runs fine on both machines with no problems. You do need the FS-One controler to be inserted into the USB bus of the machine that you want to run the simulator on. I will probably use the laptop for most of the time.
This is a very good simulator and I believe that given a few months to mature that it could be one of the best.
Below is the short results of running dxdiag.com and saving the results.
