![]() The other thing that bothered me was, eheh, knowing what to say. ![]() Any voice recognition app will prefer a headset type mic. I have a USB headset which is a different sound device to my sound card so I can have the engines and environment coming through the speakers and VoxATC on my headset - you can do this with default ATC too ofc but you can't talk to it via the headset. Spend another half hour reading out some flight plans and you probably won't need to train it any more than that. To pull some figures out of my rear end, I reckon if you spend 5-10 mins using the basic voice trainer then it'll work 95% of the time. That works well enough, but if you need to you can run the flight plan trainer which loads up an FSX flight plan file and then generates specific things for you to say for that actual flight (frequencies, waypoints etc.). Like all voice recog programs you need to train it - there's a simple trainer app you can run where the app gets you to read out various things "alpha bravo charlie" etc. Every time they ask me to repeat now it's because I mumbled. There's a few things that put me off too before I took the plunge.įirst I thought the voice recognition wouldn't be reliable enough, but it is - and if it isn't then ATC just ask you to repeat. Having said that I have heard it is very good so I should take a look :) I must admit to being put off a bit by the voice control. ScruffyDuck a écrit :I did not try VoxATC yet. Now flight planners is a whole other thing and I went through some pain in selecting one of those 9-) In the end I decided on Radar Contact 4 because it is pretty simple to use, seemed to suit my needs for GA support and worked reliably. They all have the ability to generate ATC from AI traffic and also to include real ATC chatter. I think they are all capable of providing realistic ATC. It worked well for me including forcimg me to go around when I was late getting the gear down on short final. It handles commercial and general aviation situations. Again it requires that you create a flight plan with a separate flight planner and load it into RC when you fly. I used an early version of Radar Contact some years ago. I think it would work well for commercial and general aviation flights, It is also has an awful lot of options that I found a bit daunting It requires that you input flight plans created by an external flight planning tool (or FSX itself) and the process is a bit contorted. ![]() PFE looked very interesting in terms of what it could deliver but to be honest I could not get ot to work reliably in Sim. I did not find their support forum responsive. It does provide for flight planning so there is no need for a separate flight planner. It seems targetted at larger planes and the sort of flights they do rather than general aviation which is what I prefer. On the plus side the in sim display is clear and comprehensive and the virtual co-pilot support it good. I think ProATCX has a lot of potential but I had problems with it losing me after contacting Approach before landing. ![]() I am sure there are folks with a much better understanding of these utilities than me so please treat this as newbie comments I have just run some comparisons between Radar Contact 4, ProATCX and PFE (ProFlight 2000 Emulator)
