I recently tried swapping across to XP11 (especially as I love helicopters - which FS9/FSX/P3D never did well), but I just can't get on with it.
I installed some Ortho4XP scenery, and bought a couple of payware planes, but it just doesn't live up to the hype.
For me, realistic WX is one of the biggest features for a GA/Airliner sim, and Active sky really has it nailed. Also, in VR, I felt that my P3d/FI setup was smoother and had nicer graphics than XP11. The one thing XP does seem to do better is the flight modelling.
Still, I am waiting for Dan to bring out his P3D v4 Fly Inside, and in the meantime, I fly almost exclusively with DCS World. For a smooth VR flying experience, with the most detailed/realistic aircraft and great graphics in VR, this cannot be beaten at present!
I encourage you all to have a go in the Mig-21, the Huey or fly some warbirds like the fantastic BF-109. Out of this world. Minimal (if any tweaking required) and fantastic VR support!
