microsoft flight sim on laptop

[Deanno1dad]

was watching my son playing this and having fun on his XBOX X
looked great taking off and landing at various airports and got me thinking about the game on my gaming laptop.

How would the game transpose onto a laptop and woukld the experience be lost with the controls?

secondly could a USB style controller ie xbox type or joystick make life easier..any advice be great

It's a notable resource hog. What spec is the laptop?

[Deanno1dad]

Intel i5 8GB RAM 10300h quad core processor GE force 1650 4gb graphics
hopefully got enough to use it

TL/DR; it will probably run on that, but don't expect too much in terms of resolution, graphics quality, or framerates.
