Pushback Software

[Seppl1209]

Hi folks,
I am new here in the forum.
I am currently looking for a pushback software.
Do you know of any cheaper alternatives to FS-Flight Control.
I would be very happy about an answer from you, thank you very much.
Best regards
Sebastian

Welcome Sebastian
I use GSX from DreamTeam and FS2Crew: Ultimate Ground Crew X.
Both work perfectly. GSX has a larger scope and what's cool about FS2Crew is that I can operate it with voice control (relatively high learning curve).

Hi Sebastian,
I also use GSX for ground services. Instead of FS2Crew, however, I use Multi Crew Experience for voice control if desired. MCE probably also has more functions for controlling the home cockpit by voice.

Hi Sebastian,

Welcome on board and to our Jeehell family!

As you know, I am using the Pushback Panel from Skalarki. I would love to use GSX, because they come with so many nice features. But I don't like at all
is, that I would have to use the on-screen menu.

@Dieter, can you control GSX completely via voice without using their on-screen menu? And would that be with MCE or Vox ATC? And could I use MCE parallel to Vatsim?

Hi,
personally I use a 4 positions switch such as a Chinese joystick hat. I go through the Sioc to operate fsuipc offsets. it is practical and discreet and I placed it on the pedestal.

Hello Michael,

Yes, in principle I can control GSX with voice via MCE. I know that some people who use MCE also work with VATSIM, that's not a problem.
MCE also offers the option of creating your own voice commands using an additional tool, which is what I did so that I didn't just have to only work with the MCE commands.

The GSX window still pops up. I solved this for myself by moving it to the very left side of my three monitors, so it no longer appears directly in my field of vision.

I have a short video with an example of external power on my website that you can use to see how MCE and GSX work together.

This example works with a script I created myself.
You can also just call me about it and I can explain it to you.

Thanks Dieter, will do!

Hey guys,
Thanks for the nice welcome.
As long as I don't have the pushback and refuel panel from Skalarki, these are really good alternatives.
I will definitely give it a try.
Many thanks to you all.

I just got a response from Brian at SayIntentions.AI that he thinks it should be easy for them to add support for P3D in their new pushback feature. In MSFS it is amazing. You can just talk to the ground crew and it puts you right on the taxiway without all the drama that comes with trying to get GSX to work correctly. If he does end up adding P3D support for pushback this will be the best solution by far. Yes, it’s expensive, but their AI based ATC is getting so good it’s scary sometimes, and it does support P3D v6 already. I hope they will do this.

//***** PUSHBACK *****//

var 3000, name Pushback_fs, Link FSUIPC_INOUT, Offset $31F4, Length 4
Var 3001, name PbUp_sw, Link IOCARD_SW, Device 0, Input 141, Type P // up to stop push Back
{
&Pushback_fs = 3
}
Var 3002, name PbDown_sw, Link IOCARD_SW, Device 0, Input 142, Type P // down to active strait pb
{
&Pushback_fs = 0
}
Var 3003, name PbLeft_sw, Link IOCARD_SW, Device 0, Input 140, Type P // continue the Push back in the axis for 10 seconds then send the rear of the plane to the side of the button press
{
&Pushback_fs = 1
}
Var 3004, name PbRight_sw, Link IOCARD_SW, Device 0, Input 135, Type P // same
{
&Pushback_fs = 2
}

Of couse you need to have fsuipc installed to your p3d pc and use fsuipc support active in jeehell software.
