I thought I'd open a channel for all off-topic chatter.

Is anyone else continually waiting for a surprise large steam update?

Pretty much.

Of course we are waiting for a large update. Maybe a new plane? New airports? I hope to see the US map filled up. I'm waiting for my yoke to get here this week hopefully!

The Android Aero users stuck with a pretty dreadful navigation feature deserve the small amount of work required to issue an overdue patch. I feel a bit of guilt seeing my PC version improving when the mobile side is frankly neglected. Sales might not have been great in Android but there has to be some sort of obligation to provide essential support when it was bought in good faith.

Does anybody have experience with the Thrustmaster TFRP pedals?

Nobody has used them?

Yes i'm using the thrustmaster pedals, with an extra elastic band to try and strengthen the centred position, but really wish i'd paid more for the saitek ones.
Yes i'm checking the forums every hour re updates - uk scenery please
And yes i'm also waiting for my Saitek yoke to arrive

I don't think there is a proper yoke (under £1000) on the market that would satisfy my taste buds so I decided to build my own:)
Using MadCat's Cessna "wheel" only, I'm working on the base from scratch trying to recreate real forces and travel distances that we need for decent VR experience. I will post some pics later..

I've just borrowed an Oculus DK2 yesterday from a businesspartner of mine. Absolutely stunned and addicted. This is great. My PC is old and not really up to the job, so I get 25fps in Switzerland, but hey. Still genius. I'm going to start puting money aside for a better PC and VR Goggles!

After trying to repair my CH Pro pedals today, they were f-ed. So I've just ordered the Thrustmaster T-flight rudder pedals. Can't wait to try them Tuesday or Wednesday....
