Les recommandations matérielles pour FlightGear sont basées sur le retour de la communauté d'utilisateurs, il est vivement conseillé de consulter d'autres sources (avis) avant de prendre des décisions sur une éventuelle mise à jour de votre ordinateur (exemple : investissement pour l'achat d'une carte graphique ou d'un processeur).

Configuration matérielle recommandée pour FlightGear V2.8 et supérieur
- une carte graphique prenant en charge la 3D(Intel, Nvidia, or AMD/ATI chipset, Nvidia recommandé) supportant au moins OpenGL 2.1 ou plus etcomprenant au moins 1Gb de mémoire (i.e. 512 Mb VRAM minimum). Flightgear requires a OpenGL 2.1-compliant hardware accelerated 3D video card to run at reasonable frame-rates. Most modern PCs have hardware accelerated 3D cards. If your FlightGear video is not running smoothly, see Configuring OpenGL. See Supported Video Cards) for a list of video cards known to work with FlightGear. Note that cards with working shader support will enable FlightGear to run with more visual effects.
- At least 1-2 Gb free RAM (and more is better). FlightGear uses more than 500 Mb of RAM by default. If less free RAM is available, FlightGear would be slowed down significantly due to OS swapping. When buying a new computer, you shouldn't buy computers with less than 4-6 Gb of total RAM.
- CPU: At least a dual core processor with ~2 GHz (multi-core processors have benefits for some FlightGear components such as the threaded tile loader). When buying a new computer, buying a quad core computer (i.e. i7) is a good idea.
- 1 Gb HD space for a minimum installation, 5 Gb if you want to compile it yourself, plus up to 8 Gb for optional world-wide scenery. More space is required for people wanting to check out the latest base package from Git.
- A 3 button mouse or 2 button mouse with scroll wheel
- An optional sound card, Soundblaster compatible, preferably with EAX support
- An optional joystick/yoke and/or pedals - Gameport or USB (HID compatible), see $FG_ROOT/Input for a list of input hardware known to work with FlightGear.
