I’ve been exploring some new ATC programs recently. I used to run Beyond ATC, but lately it’s become unstable for me—lots of crashes and times where it just stops responding. After trying a few alternatives, I finally gave FSHud a go.
Honestly, I’m really impressed! It integrates perfectly with my third-party traffic injector and takes full control of the traffic. If I inject it, FSHud manages it. That alone makes it feel like a big step up compared to what I was using before.
What I really like is the flexibility. You can let the co-pilot handle radio comms and frequency changes, or you can assign a PTT key and do it yourself—completely up to you.
Another great feature: it imports directly from SimBrief, so no extra setup or messing around. Just load in your flight plan and you’re ready to go.
I figured I’d share my experience in case anyone’s looking for a fully managed ATC solution. So far, FSHud has been a very positive surprise.
What ATC programs are you all using? I’d love to hear your thoughts and comparisons.
