Mc Flight Simulator doesn’t work (keyboard)

Vali OG · Apr 30, 2023

I recently bought Mc Flight Simulator, play on mouse and keyboard. Now I have tried to do the flight training, but I fail at the controls that are assigned to the ten keys (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,0). When I press these keys the control rudders and flaps etc should normally move but nothing does. With the other keys on the keyboard, the controls work and it can't be the individual keys themselves, as they go on Google or something. Thanks for your help!

It's hard to believe that a flagship product like MS Flight Simulator has literally no mouse support. It's frustrating - I purchased the game but I don't always want controllers on my desk. Just mouse support thank you.

I've searched and googled and fussed with this program and would love to buy add-ons and much more. But frankly, I have now given up and purchased X-Plane. It's great - mouse support, and my flying club is now using it as a certified simulator.

I've had MS FS since the days of Sublogic. But now, they've lost a customer.

Hello Vali OG,

Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community.

We’d like to know more about it in details so that we can provide a more accurate resolution for you.

Was this working before?

What is the current version and edition of your Windows OS?

So far, from the details you provided, you can try the following steps and let us know the result. You can just skip those you have done already.

Make sure that you properly configured the peripheral you are connecting.

Please see guide here: Peripheral Control Settings Overview and FAQ – Microsoft Flight Simulator Support (zendesk.com)

Third party software may cause this problem a well. So, if you are running antimalware, antivirus or game booster software. Disabling them would be a good option and see if this fixes the problem.

Or you may run the PC on clean boot, this makes us more confident that we are only running Microsoft Services.

Mouse and Keyboard suck for simulation; you need an actual flight stick.

Also, Gaijin did mouse and keyboard controls perfectly for Arcade Mode.

I hope, when it comes out, that Flight Simulator will have Mouse and Keyboard support along with Joystick support for Xbox
