Hi Pete again,
That's good to get confirmation from you. I did have a vague memory of someone on a forum saying that they did this, but my 86-year old memory can never be trusted.
Unfortunately, my 737 cockpit was never sophisticated enough to justify taking up a Prosim737 subscription, version 2.1 covered all the function I needed and I am too old to justify spending more.
I have never found a satisfactory rationale for which system is best to take sole? responsibility for flight controls, P3D, FSUIPC5, or Prosim737. My inclination was to FSUIPC5; you are implying that Prosim737 V3 is now the best, but not necessarily at the earlier level, or was always the best choice?
My intention is to purchase P3D V5 and install it on my new powerful 24-core system along with the WideFS7 server, and keep Prosim737 on its existing registered system along with a WideFS7 Client. This avoids the hassle of re-registering and also re-assigning the hundreds of Prosim737 configuration parameters. The question then arises, "who is best to take responsibility for the physical flight control hardware?". The choice is, the new P3d V5 system using either P3D itself or FSUIPC5, or the old system using Prosim737 V2??? At first, my answer would be attach all control hardware ( CH Yoke, Saitek Pedals, Bodnar BU836X controlled Throttle quadrant, ) to the new system and use FSUIPC5 for them all. Are you suggesting that the direct Prosim v2 option would be better?
Thanks for any advice.
Cheers, the still soldering-on, NobbyH
