Andrew McCabe Posted June 16, 2020 at 07:50 AM Posted June 16, 2020 at 07:50 AM (edited) Welcome back to Vatsim 😉 Both clients essentially do the same thing. FSInn is no longer supported by the developer as far as I know. vPilot is well supported by the developer via this forum. As a former FSInn user myself, there were functions within FSInn that I did like, but I moved over to vPilot some years ago and have no complaints. It's very straight forward and should work "straight out of the box". Andrew Edited June 16, 2020 at 07:53 AM by Andrew McCabe Typo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andreas Fuchs Posted June 16, 2020 at 09:33 AM Posted June 16, 2020 at 09:33 AM And if you would like to have those FsInn-functions again, have a look at "swift" pilot-client. Disclaimer: there are some changes going on with the organization of swift at the moment, the project is being moved to GitHub, at least one original developer has withdrawn from the project, but two new developers have entered it. Nevertheless, I am extremely happy with the client, but you have to be prepared to invest more than 15 minutes to get it installed and setup correctly to enjoy it. We have tutorial videos available to help. If prefer an almost trouble-free installation and a more simplistic (not meant in a negative way) client, then vPilot will be the client of choice for you.

Peter Millar Posted June 16, 2020 at 05:41 PM Author Posted June 16, 2020 at 05:41 PM (edited) I am in oceana region, i went with vpilot as i had issues in the past with FSinn. and yes it was a much easier install. But i see there is no server link for Australia like in the video so do I use the closest one in Singapore ?

Romano Lara Posted June 18, 2020 at 12:12 AM Posted June 18, 2020 at 12:12 AM (FSX/P3D) vPilot + FLai (for model matching) is the best combo. No tweaking necessary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gary Reed Posted August 23, 2022 at 03:34 PM Posted August 23, 2022 at 03:34 PM How do we access vpilot in sim? I like to fly full screen, no windows box but vpilot does not install in addons that can be opened in sim as xpilot does in xplane for instance, I like the quick tune feature. The way it looks I would have to write down controller frequencies to dial manually. Which I don't mind with GTN or if I had and external hardware radio but mouse tuning is a pain. How is vpilot accessed in sim? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
