What a magnificent flight model, so fluid! Lots of things to learn on this aircraft - as evidenced by me flying the first 10 minutes with the airbrake extended!

Ah, the memories, the ups and the downs. But, just as I began flying the MiGPit Mk.VI... a new game came to town. Like a phoenix, Microsoft Flight Simulator rose from the ashes and the rest is history.

After a couple of days research, asking questions on the Prepar3D forum and reading/watching some of the resources I've linked to here, I came up with a solution which satisfied my requirement of a convincing representation of the fast jet terrain hugging flight profile.

I wrote this checklist on how to fix the problem after being unable to get a satisfactory answer from ORBX or the Chaseplane developer Parallel 42.

I enjoy flying the F-16 fast and at treetop level... who wouldn't! But at all levels I was getting stuttering and slowdowns. The stuttering being much more immersion breaking that any slowdown. Anyway, cutting to the chase after hours and hours and hours over many nights, I worked out the single most important graphic setting (for my rig). And it's one I would NEVER have guessed.

Due to help from staff at the ORBX forums, the Canberra scenery revealed it's full glory!
