Compatibility

aerOne connects to Microsoft Flight Simulator on the same PC and recognises supported aircraft automatically. Deep integrations depend on each aircraft developer’s SDK, so availability differs by aircraft.

Simulators

SimulatorStatusNotes
Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024SupportedPrimary development and test platform. All screenshots on this site were taken in MSFS 2024.
Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020Not yet validatedCompatibility testing is in progress. The 3-axis camera and Replay Manager require MSFS 2024; ImmerseMotion offers vertical motion on MSFS 2020.

Aircraft

Aircraft are detected from the loaded simulator aircraft. Third-party aircraft must be installed and licensed separately.
