I hopped on youtube today to check your page to see if you had any A400M content. Crazy timing. Really good content man, keep up the great work. Really stoked I found your channel, hope to see more in depth content in the future. I did find the dev videos for the C-17 from Cold to Landing(and manuals!), and that helped a lot to learn the workflow. Still some quirks in AP setup Im not understanding, but would love to see your content with more of these types of planes maybe simplifying the process and everything.
the A400M is flown by Royal Airforce, German Airforce, bulgarian airforce. and cant remember the other ones. but they do fly to US for training exercises.
Spanish airforce too and its built in Seville, Spain. There was an accident there too that killed 2 test pilots 10 years ago when they were testing the A400
Belgium, France, Germany, Luxembourg, Spain, Turkey, Malaysia and the UK as far as I know were the initial militaries that use it. It’s beautiful! I am patiently waiting for issues to resolve on the Xbox Series X as I’m very excited to fly this and the H225 Super Puma helicopter.
When you are trying to align your irs and adr, I usually select data then airport on my flight computer first using the airport’s ICAO. After that I put in all my mass and balance info in using the efb. Select the Perfs page and press on T.O. Computation and then insert the computated values. After that you should be good, you could also put in your desired flight plan if you have one.
Great video spent 2 hours trying to get the game to even let me load into the cockpit of the a400 eventually did it then the game crashed. For the 8 th time so hopefully they will eventually come out with some fixes😂🙄
SAME. I tried 4 times last night, it totally freezes up the entire sim! Simply doesn't work. Also my favorite plane, F-18 in free flight, NO control at all now after the update a few days ago.
I haven't had any issues where it won't recognize the axis for the throttle. I know I have to remap everything for the VelocityOne Flightstick because nothing is matching up like I thought it would
Hey great video, have you tried the fa18 in the new sim because for some reason when I start it from cold and dark I can’t get the avionics to work. Any chance you could do a video on it please?
@@StevesSimStation also I’m a trucker so I’m only getting 30-50 mbps connection lol When I get home I can probably get a lot better performance from 24
Nice video! Question, does the 160 airports that come with the game are the real airports, and you do not have to purchase them. Also, how can I find out which airports come with the game?
I ran into that issue. Even though you remove the chokes on the outside walk around you still need to go into the EFB and remove the chokes there... that fixed it for me
I've only crashed once using the A400 but my buddy, who has a much better PC than me, gets constant crashes. There's also this bug with AP that will lock out your controls entirely even when you manually override.
Very unusual how everyone is getting so many different results with this sim... not a consistent bug or glitch happen but instead random. Because I havent experienced anything like that.
Xbox is having a rough go with with 2024 and seems PC isnt as bad but still far from perfect. In time things will get better. Hopefully sooner rather than later.
For my uses: PC, VR, helicopters, I've had an OK experience so far. I had the 97% bug once and queues on day 1 like everyone else but it was smooth sailing after that, fingers crossed. It's a shame that a game that works on day 1 is becoming a thing of the past though.
FS12 is not horrobly moddeled overall, for sure not everything is perfect but once the server works its better than FS11 and ince all addons are compatible its gonna be a lot of fun

I'm glad that you found the channel and like the content. I am planning on many more videos going into the new planes in 2024.
The Airbus A400M Cargo Plane That's So Cool 🛫👍🏻😉
Yea, its a pretty cool plane!
the A400M is flown by Royal Airforce, German Airforce, bulgarian airforce. and cant remember the other ones. but they do fly to US for training exercises.
Nice i knew several European countries use them but hadn't clue they flew to the US for training missions
French also
Spanish airforce too and its built in Seville, Spain. There was an accident there too that killed 2 test pilots 10 years ago when they were testing the A400

What a beaut of a plane!
Yes she is
A400M is a midway point between the Hercules and the C17.
Makes it a rather attractive proposition for smaller nations with more limited budgets.
Thats a good analysis of this aircraft and wish I would have thought about it in that way.

Thank you for the detailed steps. I will definitely try that.
@ of course, also I hope that cold isn’t too bad!
Sim market has a msfs2020 version just got updated October 2024. Haven’t checked it out yet
Ooo nice
C-17 was originally designed and developed by McDonnell Douglas before moving to Boeing after the two companies merged in 1997.
Thank you for the clarification
Great video spent 2 hours trying to get the game to even let me load into the cockpit of the a400 eventually did it then the game crashed. For the 8 th time so hopefully they will eventually come out with some fixes😂🙄
Thank you for your compliment on the video. Im sure Microsoft will be launching many updates to the Sim, especially if they wanna keep ppl
A400m is not in any way a copy of the C-17 it’s much smaller in fact the Royal Air Force fly both it was in fact designed to replace the c-130
Ok fair... the shape and design looks close to a C-17 if you think about it though
@@StevesSimStationyeah there *might* be a reason many airlifters are high winged with a t tail
That does make a lot of sense though.
Great video brother.
Appreciate it!
I can’t even fly it! Just freezes before I start the actual flight on Xbox . Think il be sticking with DCS.
Thats unfortunate I would give MSFS2024 a bit more time to sort things out. Xbox side Ive heard there are more issues than on PC
same it jus crashes my xbox
too
SAME. I tried 4 times last night, it totally freezes up the entire sim! Simply doesn't work.
Also my favorite plane, F-18 in free flight, NO control at all now after the update a few days ago.
14:15 did you put the beacon lights on? maby thats why the people didnt move.
Ooooo I'm not sure
On my velocity one on MSFS 20 and 24 I can’t get it to recognize throttles, have you had any issues, works fine in Xplane .
I haven't had any issues where it won't recognize the axis for the throttle. I know I have to remap everything for the VelocityOne Flightstick because nothing is matching up like I thought it would
Simbrief load works.
Good to know thank you
I love the A400M sadly it crashes the game on the Series S, fingers crossed its patched soon same with the Beluga Transporter aircraft as well.
Yea seems console has gotten the worst end of things
Ok subscribed :D
@@lincoln537 thank you!
8:30, how do you move from the cockpit seat to the rest of the plane?
Least on my keyboard on my computer you use Shift and the ASWD keys to move around. That's my setup on my keybaord
Hey great video, have you tried the fa18 in the new sim because for some reason when I start it from cold and dark I can’t get the avionics to work. Any chance you could do a video on it please?
I have not tried the F-18 yet. I plan on doing a video on it though
@ thanks I really appreciate it!
15 years of A400M in 2024.
good vid, have you had any issues of any planes not having sound?
Few times but I would either restart the flight or the sim and fixes it for a bit
Steve? This A400 still in my country Malaysia.
Nice!!
This is main reason I got 24 but it’s been very buggy for me 😢
Given time it will get better
@@StevesSimStation also I’m a trucker so I’m only getting 30-50 mbps connection lol
When I get home I can probably get a lot better performance from 24
@@StevesSimStationmake sure on A400 you turn on realistic nose steer in the EFB that’s why it’s not turning
@TriJetSimPilot that is probably a big factor
I tried to fly this and it just froze as soon as I loaded into the map.
@@thecornishsteamtrain123 xbox or PC?
@@StevesSimStationXbox and looking at the comments it’s to be expected.
@thecornishsteamtrain123 xbox has been having issues
Nice video! Question, does the 160 airports that come with the game are the real airports, and you do not have to purchase them. Also, how can I find out which airports come with the game?
They are real airports and Im not sure where the list is off hand I would have to look it up
@StevesSimStation copy
I really love aircraft that don't look like they should be able to get in the air, just a weird fetish I guess :)
Planes like this are a great marvel to look at. The engineering it takes is mind blowing
Good video! However, I am stuck at 800 RPM even if I am at full throttle… Does anyone no why?
I ran into that issue. Even though you remove the chokes on the outside walk around you still need to go into the EFB and remove the chokes there... that fixed it for me
@@StevesSimStationThanks I will check that.
You're welcome
no checklists?
There are electronic checklist built into the fmc
The checklist is there in the MSFS2024 version of the EFB. I just shortened the process and did some short cuts
Am i the only one with no bugs on console
Count your blessings then and knock on wood
This plane don't work on xbox yet. Freezes on on the runway
Been hearing a lot of console users are having issues
@StevesSimStation and the controls are a nightmare. Why just why couldn't we have the same controls in 2024 😭
Im not sure if its the same for Xbox but on PC you can revert controls back to 2020 in the settings
@@StevesSimStation I hope it will be possible for hst on Xbox too
Soooo uhhh...
Is this fixed now? Or does it still freeze and crash your game every time.
I have yet to experience a crash or a freeze last few days its been flawless for me... I use flawless loosely lol still some minor glitches
I've only crashed once using the A400 but my buddy, who has a much better PC than me, gets constant crashes. There's also this bug with AP that will lock out your controls entirely even when you manually override.

MSFS 2024 SUCKS !!! Give me the 2020 version……much, much better on Xbox ! ( I know it’s early but I’m NOT waiting years for it to get polished ! ).
Why are you watching the video then
@@definitively_not_melol

Im in the same boat. Day 1 I was in the 97% club but since day 1 Ive been perfectly fine.
Gear retraction in the real aircraft is nowhere near that slow...its just modeled horribly....like MSFS 2024 is overall.
Updates... it will need updates and Im sure Microsoft was scrambling to put them together
@@StevesSimStation 2024 is literally 2020 with some lipstick on it. Terrible trash.

@@AeroPressDispatch Its trash. You're accepting trash. Paying for FS2020 all over again. Fact.
