The VSKYLABS DC-3 is designed to operate within the default features of X-Plane. However, several systems in the VSKYLABS DC-3 have been highly customized to closely replicate real-world C-47/DC-3 operations. As a result, a short but important setup process must be completed before flying the aircraft using a joystick or other hardware flight equipment (throttle quadrants, switch panels, etc.).
Note: The aircraft is flight-ready when using VR or on-screen manipulators.
