Request for information: Stream Deck + w/ MSFS2020
https://flightsim.to/file/3178/flight-tracker-streamdeck-plugin plugin is great and allows you to control default values like radio and sqk through a numpad, as well as displaying and controlling simvars like throttle position, throttle outputs and other switches. These would control most things on most planes that uses default variables, but not planes with custom variables like fenix. Controlling fenix requires another plugin on top of that.

Is it possible to use a macro pad?
I used this plugin. Then I download a profile for aircraft I fly most. https://flightsim.to/file/3178/flight-tracker-streamdeck-plugin

Cockpit Post #69,420: I'm done. Well, at least until Virpil releases an Apache collective (and some more stable pedals).
And some day you'll decide you want TrackId, a StreamDeck, buton boxes... Here, i'll give you a teaser to stir the pot.

Streamdeck icons / 450/ huge project!
Is using something like https://github.com/nguyenquyhy/Flight-Tracker-StreamDeck to read icon states or just ingame keyboard shortcuts?

If you have the money, highly recommend getting a Stream Deck for MSFS. Having AP controls available at all times is very nice. Link to profile I'm using below
This guy is doing great work.
- Not much, but my first setup!

Stream Deck on Shadow
For example: I am playing MS Flight Simulator on Shadow, and have installed this StreamDeck plugin to see real-time stats (ex: FPS) of my game. However, the Stream Deck's indicators will lag by 30-60 secs or more.

Question on the clarification and recommendations for: Learning resources, regional differences and simulators?
For a sim, I prefer MSF2020 because of the real world scenery. As a VFR pilot, I can fly at my local airport and see the same home depot building where I make my base turn in real life. I have a a high end system (5900X, KP 3090) and use a Reverb G2. You can also hook in Garmin Pilot or Foreflight into either sim and use it as you would in the plane: https://github.com/astenlund/fs2ff/releases/tag/v0.1.13. While the sim helps in some areas can hurt a little in others. I had reinforced some bad habits by sim flying that I'm still trying to break in real flying.

Nothing more terrifying than not seeing the runway until 200ft...
Foreflight is easy to get working. There are a couple options but I use this one because it also shows the sim traffic: https://github.com/astenlund/fs2ff
-
I sat on the runway at KVNY for an hour, forcing Live Traffic aircraft to go around and then circle endlessly
ForeFlight, connected to FS2020 via https://github.com/astenlund/fs2ff

Is there an add on where you can control or view the flight when you're away from your PC? Such as on a tablet or smartphone?
I use Airmatre connected via FS2FF

Connecting Msfs 2020 To Garmin Pilot
FYI out of all of the apps I tried FS2FF works (https://github.com/astenlund/fs2ff). Strange that it (Garmin Pilot) likes some and not others.
-
Recommend an app to practice instrument approaches?
You can do that with MSFS 2020 as well you just need to run another app on the side. I use fs2ff
What are some alternatives?
When comparing Flight-Tracker-StreamDeck and fs2ff you can also consider the following projects:
MSFSTouchPortalPlugin - The goal of this repository is to create a connection between Touch Portal and MSFS through SimConnect in order to allow users to create buttons to control or view data for your aircraft. While this is for MSFS, in theory it could be used with other SimConnect compatible games.
msfs2fltplan - Connects MSFS 2020 to the mobile FltPlan Go app
msfs2020-google-map - Replace MSFS2020's bing map to google map
msfs-mod-manager - An external mod manager for the new Microsoft Flight Simulator
AutoHotInterception - An AutoHotkey wrapper for the Interception driver
FalconBMS-Alternative-Launcher - Configure and save FalconBMS setup per Joysticks.
MSFS2020-PilotPathRecorder - Record your flight path with key flight information archived during the Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 flights. Then export that data to a KML file to use with Google Earth for 3 dimensional flight analysis
msfs2020-map-enhancement - MSFS2020 Map Enhancement
msfs-2020-gps-link - Transmit GPS data from Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 to navigation apps.
