Thanks for this - FS2020 is missing is detailed tutorials and this was exactly what i was looking for. Please do some more for us intermediate flight simmers who need more than the basics on offer in the sim.
My man, i've been looking all over for content like thisl. After begginer tutorials, everything jumps up to jets and extremely high level stuff. Please keep churning these intermediate level tutorials, they are a huge, huge help. Thanks a bunch.
You explain it so clearly and to the point in a fun way. Honestly one of the better guides I've watched in my life and not just flight sim guides. If you were a teacher nobody would fail your class
i've watched 2 of your tutorials on the g1000 so far. this is my first flight sim with no previous knowledge. the Garmin g1000 seemed a bit daunting at first with how much there is to it, but you really simplified it but also went into great detail at the same time making it very easy to learn. thank you!
Firstly. I'm a noob. Played a little of Flight Sim X back in 2007. But not much. But with Flight Sim 20, I absolutely love instrument flying. And find it so much fun to use. And you are right about using VS and adjusting pitch using the buttons being intuitive. As I figured out how to use basic Auto Pilot in the Cessna CJ4 on my own, using this method. I even adjust my heading the same way, by using the heading hold. I didnt know about the Nav button, or the FLC and of course other advanced option you went over. But this had been very informative, so thank you!
Extremely helpful video, still too advanced for those of us learning basics of control but if I watch it over and over I can comprehend it enough to apply in game.
Killer video dude. Exactly what I was looking for. Sad that the game doesn't have any tutorials on this stuff for people who want to dive deep but don't want to go into manuals etc. :)
This is amazing, I learned so much. Thank you! I'd love to see more videos about instrument flying. I was trying to brute force my understanding of the autopilot, with very mixed results. I watched this, and I understand so much more. Heading back to the (virtual) cockpit now! Subscribed.
This is a godsend thank you so much! I wish MS included this in a tutorial along with a bunch of other stuff it feels like I have no way other than youtube to figure out
Great video, especially the info on Approach. As someone who is new to flight sim I think a lot of this information is taken for granted and can be hard to find for new players. That being said, I really enjoyed going on one of the bush flying trips in the Cessna 172 and using all that free time to try and figure out the auto pilot.
I'm watching this video for second time to process everything, and I watched several others... and I see a number of subscribers go up with my every visit. That's great to see, keep it up man, your videos are very helpful. Thank you! :)
12:26 The NAV button doesn't snap itself back to the closest point in the course. It brings you back to the course, typically by using a 45 degree intercept to the course in the direction of the course.
perfect video - I was barely partly figuring out some buttons by trial and error. you have a great presentation manner too - clear, concise. More please!
Thank you so much for doing this amazing tutorial. I have been literally pulling my own hair out trying to figure out how to use this god damn G1000, and from watching this, I can now see all the things I was doing wrong, and why it was not working the way I expected it to. This is a definite bookmark for future reference.
As someone who only started figuring out how to fly a plane a few days ago when Flight Simulator came out, this video did a fantastic job of demystifying how the G1000 AP works - thank you! Microsoft and Asobo really ought to have added a tutorial for this system into the game at launch, because unless you know how to use it beforehand, it's pretty complicated for a newbie.
My FS2020 experience so far.... From a Fake daher 930 pilot. > Played with all the buttons until i got into the air > Visited my town :3 > Started pressing random autopilot buttons on a long journey, Got my aircraft to stay at a set altitude > Fell asleep for 2h and i was doing ovals in the sky across the UK, 17% fuel, guess ill land > Drift on to airstrip at 80KT, Stop directly on what looked like a fuel pump, Landing success > Randomly go across the pond, Messing with the autopilot functions > HDG, AP, YD, ALT, are now on, no more ovals for me > Now it only takes me 5 mins to start the 930 and 1 to set the Autopilot, Compared to 50min start and another 20 for the Autopilot I now have some familiarity with a garmin nav system on a plane, Experience i never thought ill have, The way you learn stuff in FS feels more rewarding than anything, Probably because theres a real time investement, And straight away from this video i had an idea what i was looking at, Its not even been out a week yet :P
Thanks for putting this together! I have not attempted to use the G1000 system until FS 2020 came out. On first glance it is very intimidating and it is hard to find clear and down to earth instruction on its features (including auto pilot). This was really outstanding and I now understand how to use the auto pilot. It would be great is you get a chance to do an in depth series on instrument flight using the G1000. Thanks again!
Holy mackerel. Finally someone who can explain things for a lamen. Thank you sir, you have no idea how much this helped me. Appreciate you taking the time to make this vid. 👊🏻
I'm 7:45 sec into this video and I'm already blow away by the clarity of the instructions. Shut up and take my money whoever sells me a cheap Textron/Cessna 172S (G1000) !!!Thanks for the vid dude. Really apricate it, Happy flying from Ireland
Thanks for this. I figured a lot out by trial and error on my bush flight through croatia, but thannk you for the clarification on all the featured of the AP. Had no idea what flight director did.
You have an amazing skill for teaching. This was so easy to grasp, which is surprising since AP has mostly just made me more confused in the past. Thank you
This was a wonderful video! Thank you for all of this information. I can’t find much on the autopilot system without just going directly to the Garmin manuals. This cut right to the chase and you explained things very well! Very much appreciated. I would love to see more on the AP system and more about instrument flying and navigating in the sim if you plan on making more of these. Thanks again!
Well, this certainly is a good tutorial on what the buttons do. From my point of view, and I know many will both agree and disagree, we need a guide on how to actually put it into practice. Being new to this flight lark, I don't quite yet understand all those airport charts nor how to program them into the display and utilise it. What I do right now is I create my flight plan in the world map, take off from A, get to B and then disengage the AP and try to land it on my own or use HDG. Some times I'm either too high up, too fast on the approach so I end up bouncing on the runway and off into the green. If you could make the guide on how to put all these things into practice, as a newbie to flight sims, I'd be grateful.
Thank you so much for this tutorial. I've stayed away from G1000 because I've never found a good tutorial on how to use it. This is awesome! Keep it up.
The BC button isn't there for flying the ILS in reverse away from the airport. It's there for flying localizer backcourse approaches. What that is are approaches to the airport from the opposite direction as the regular ILS. You don't get a glideslope and the localizer is reversed. The BC button tells the autopilot to use reserve sensing - instead of flying to the lateral needle like normal fly away from the needle in order to center it and center the aircraft on the course to the runway.
oh wow. i just got into flight sim. I am doing a 30 minute flight (at time of writing) and wanted to smooth out my AP experience, so this was a great help. Thanks!
Terrific instructional video. I was going no where before with the Autopilot and other stuff and was very frustrated. Now I have a a direction. Thank you.
Wow this video is actually super helpful! The G1000 has had a way to confuse me for quite sometime now! Shockingly, I find the AP feature within the G1000 to be much more complex and intuitive than the 737's and Airbus A320's
GREAT video. I like the personal touch and the few "impromtu" changes also helped to understand the G1000. Please keep the tutorial videos coming, you do a wonderful job of getting the subject matter to us in a way that is easy to understand! !! !!!
This was so much help! I'm a new flight sim pilot and this was put in a way that was very easy to understand. I hope you could do a video focusing on the ILS landing. I've been struggling with lining up the plane and landing it using the AP system.
WOW this tutorial is incredible mate !!! Thank you so much for this video. REALLY REALLY HELPFUL !!!! This is exactly what I've been looking for. As a newbie to MS Flight Simulator 2020 :)
Thank you so much! Would love to see tutorials for all planes in the game at release! Learning each one is a whole lot to handle for someone who doesn't know a lot about each of the planes.
Awesome stuff! Thanks for the explanation; very detailed and concise. ;) I've been a flight simulator fan since the days of Flight Simulator 4 which I believe came out way back in the early 90s. I bought all the versions of Flight Simulator since however after Flight Simulator X got boring, I put flight simming down and forgot a lot of this until MFS-2020 came out... and now here I am back in the digital skies again. ;)
Really helpful! MSFS really needs to have more flight training stuff. The ones they have now is only the very basic but we actually want to know more about the other important stuff but they just left that part out.
Thank you so very much. I am really enjoying your tutorials. I have gone from a complete beginner to being able to navigate from airport to airport on a consistent level. Granted I’m mainly using GPS as at this point. One bit of constructive feedback though. Your tutorial was well paced and easily understandable until you did the skip forward. When you were thrown a curve ball with the change in runway etc your own training kicked in and you corrected the mistake. However your workload massively increased and you had to use a multitude of other concepts that you did not have time to fully explain, this was on top of the already complex approach procedures. For me personally, you lost me here. Perhaps it’s a useful “learning experience” as you stated for more experienced pilots but it ended usefulness of the tutorial as an entry level training tool. It was then somewhat unclear what steps would be normal for an approach and what was fire fighting the mistakes introduced by the sim. I hope this comes across in the right way, I am very grateful for the tutorial just wanted to give some feedback from a beginners point of view.
Having the explanations/order in which you press the buttons on the screen after you explain it, as a recap, would really help as you explain things very fast... still very informative video so thank you.
Thank you so much for this. The autopilot does not work in 2020 the way I remember it working in FSX when I used to use that, and this clears a LOT up for me.
THANK YOU! I have started a long trip in a Baron G58 in MSFS 2020, and I had little clue how to use the Garmin, so I've been reading the manual. But this video will save me a ton of time!
I just stumbled upon your channel. I have basic flight knowledge, but your knowledge and tutorial with the g1000 has really helped me out. Thanks so much.
awesome video, very good understandable explained, not too fast spoken (sometimes 😂) , and an really sympathetic voice 👍😊😂 and also an DCS fan 🛩✈🪂 *subscribed* ❤ Greeetings from EDDR. Happy flying^^
Autopilot still needs some serious work. Aside from the rocking and dolphin-bobbing problems people usually bring up, it doesn't seem to understand the concept of standard turn rate or bank angle limits. I flipped on nav mode for one flight, turned around for two seconds, and when I looked back the plane was flying S turns along the gps path at 80°+ of bank (in a 208).
Depending on plane make sure you use YD if available. Also, make sure you are way above stall speed. I saw Auto Pilot mess up more when heavy and close to stall speed.
Agreed, the programming for the in-game autopilot is amateur hour. I suggest giving feedback directly to Microsoft through the game's feedback mechanism.
@@CRgamingMSFS I was at 130kt IAS and level in a c208. That dropped after the first couple turns obviously but airspeed has nothing to do with bank angle limits. Neither does yaw damper for that matter. It's something they really need to fix.
BC is back course, it reverses sensitivity when flying towards a runway on a localizer the opposite direction that the localizer was designed for. This is needed because otherwise the autopilot wound not be able to track the localizer inbound. There are a few localizer back course approaches around. I have flown one the past 30 years.
Thanks a BUNCH for your videos, really saved me alot of time (instead of reading manuals) and also the videos on flying various aricraft. Appreciate you. :)
Great video. Good narrative and lots of features demoed. However you can see how pause, horizontal course, vertical course, and slewing all need improvements in MSFS. You almost died on the ILS approach when you hit pause, and the airspeed continued to drop until the stall warning went off. You were fast enough to recognize it and save it.
This is exactly what ive been looking for. As a newbie to Flightsim, although im still learning lots of things but couldn't find a starting point whem it came to AP
Thanks for this video... it helped me quite a bit. Would you be able to make a follow up video with a rundown of all the other ways the G1000 can be used. I am most interested in how to do the following: 1. If on a flight plan, diverting to a nearest airport and conducting an ILS approach. On a VOR flight plan from KBUF-KALB i wanted to land at KROC for refuelling, but I couldnt figure out how to detract from the flight plan and activate the KROC Rwy 22 ILS approach. The PROC button kept offering the KALB ILS approaches. 2. Exploring the different menu options - ie, what CDI does, and how to switch from GPS to LOC; Can we also fly a flight route relying on VOR, instead of GPS? - I was trying to do this but rotating the CRS did not impact the CRS bearing on the PFD compass :( 3. The compass sometimes changes to a hemisphere from the full circle in your video. How do we Swap between the compass views? 4. Playing with ADF (ndb frequencies) on display
In previous Microsoft Flight Simulators, we had an in-game map which allowed us to check all the frequencies and localisers. This one does not have it and I have the same question. Where to find them. I wish they implemented the same system like how it used to be before
@@durulbaykalOn the map screen when planning a flight, press F for filters and turn in navigation aids I think. It’ll show vor stations and ils etc on the map and you can click them and it’ll show the frequency. A bit wonky but it is there
@@nick11927 Thank you for your answer. I know about the filters, but that screen is only available before the flight. What if I want to change my route and check for new waypoints and frequencies? We used to have that map in FSX. I am surprised we got nothing in MSFS2020
thanks for the extremely clear intro on the AP of G1000, loud & clear, dude. It looks this is quite different against that G1000 in flight simulator X (which has a simple independent AP device and panel) and another one in X-plane. Good explanation and demo on each button and its functionality, quite helpful, and good luck to you. pls bring us more like this one - maybe another intro for the G1000 MFD? like how to find out the airports around and there tower/ils frequencies?
To say that this noob (me) is overwhelmed, is an understatement. I will bookmark this video for future because I definitely want to learn the instrument landing, etc. But this is a bit advanced for me, I need the extreme very basics to learn first lol. Thanks for the great tutorial though, I will be coming back to it once I learn more.
Instrument flying is definitely considered advanced. Don’t get too upset if it takes you a while to grasp it. The G1000/Glass cockpits can also be intimidating to new pilots, so it could take some time to get comfortable with that system as well.
This is perfect. Thank you very much! I'd be very interested in how to set up a holding pattern according to the chart and how to do more of the advanced concepts that you mention at the end of the video.
I should not have watched this whole video in one go without having the sim running in front of me. HOLY INFORMATION OVERLOAD. I am half way through the video and completely forgotten where we started. I need to break this into steps and play along with you or I will never get it through my head.
Wow...thank you so much! This is exactly what I needed for my next flight! I'm also glad to see that it isn't my old and slow PC that's causing the super-high pitch sensitivity; hopefully the Aug 27 update will fix that as well as the wonky AP issues.
Thanks for this - FS2020 is missing is detailed tutorials and this was exactly what i was looking for. Please do some more for us intermediate flight simmers who need more than the basics on offer in the sim.
My man, i've been looking all over for content like thisl. After begginer tutorials, everything jumps up to jets and extremely high level stuff. Please keep churning these intermediate level tutorials, they are a huge, huge help. Thanks a bunch.
You are knocking these tutorials out of the park. Very, very helpful. Thank you so much.
So far the best explanation I’ve seen about the autopilot. Straight forward, simple and nice voice tone. Keep going with these vids!
Best instrument video out there. The last third of this video shows need for separate and deeper videos
You explain it so clearly and to the point in a fun way. Honestly one of the better guides I've watched in my life and not just flight sim guides. If you were a teacher nobody would fail your class
Just wanted to come here and say you are an excellent teacher - one of the best I have ever seen in explaining aspects of FS. Please do more.

What an awesome video! I wish MS had tutorials like this - noobs get plopped into this sim without any way to learn how to do instrument flying.
Thanks a BUNCH for your videos, really saved me alot of time (instead of reading manuals) and also the videos on flying various aricraft. Appreciate you. :)
Thanks a lot, I tried to figure it out on my own, and it really wasnt intuitive. Your video really helped! :)
Great video. Good narrative and lots of features demoed. However you can see how pause, horizontal course, vertical course, and slewing all need improvements in MSFS. You almost died on the ILS approach when you hit pause, and the airspeed continued to drop until the stall warning went off. You were fast enough to recognize it and save it.
This is exactly what ive been looking for. As a newbie to Flightsim, although im still learning lots of things but couldn't find a starting point whem it came to AP
Great stuff! looking forward to any other videos.
Thanks for this video... it helped me quite a bit.
Would you be able to make a follow up video with a rundown of all the other ways the G1000 can be used. I am most interested in how to do the following:
1. If on a flight plan, diverting to a nearest airport and conducting an ILS approach. On a VOR flight plan from KBUF-KALB i wanted to land at KROC for refuelling, but I couldnt figure out how to detract from the flight plan and activate the KROC Rwy 22 ILS approach. The PROC button kept offering the KALB ILS approaches.
2. Exploring the different menu options - ie, what CDI does, and how to switch from GPS to LOC; Can we also fly a flight route relying on VOR, instead of GPS? - I was trying to do this but rotating the CRS did not impact the CRS bearing on the PFD compass :(
3. The compass sometimes changes to a hemisphere from the full circle in your video. How do we Swap between the compass views?
4. Playing with ADF (ndb frequencies) on display
Thanks for helping me finally understand. Still confused by the ILS stuff. A detailed, slow explanation for us, please?
Can you do a tutorial on the citation next
1000 thanks man! This is so good and cool instruction. Keep it coming, gonna watch them ALL =)
Great stuff!
He makes it look so easy. It's not.
Keep teaching and we'll try to keep up!
Perfect tutorial! One question, how would I find the localiser without a ILS chart?
In previous Microsoft Flight Simulators, we had an in-game map which allowed us to check all the frequencies and localisers. This one does not have it and I have the same question. Where to find them. I wish they implemented the same system like how it used to be before
@@durulbaykalOn the map screen when planning a flight, press F for filters and turn in navigation aids I think. It’ll show vor stations and ils etc on the map and you can click them and it’ll show the frequency. A bit wonky but it is there
@@nick11927 Thank you for your answer. I know about the filters, but that screen is only available before the flight. What if I want to change my route and check for new waypoints and frequencies? We used to have that map in FSX. I am surprised we got nothing in MSFS2020
Great stuff. Thanks for sharing this. I really like the way you explain these video's. Keep it up!
thanks for the extremely clear intro on the AP of G1000, loud & clear, dude. It looks this is quite different against that G1000 in flight simulator X (which has a simple independent AP device and panel) and another one in X-plane. Good explanation and demo on each button and its functionality, quite helpful, and good luck to you.
pls bring us more like this one - maybe another intro for the G1000 MFD? like how to find out the airports around and there tower/ils frequencies?
Thank you for this! So much clearer now you've shown the different modes. Going to try it out as soon as I can.
exactly what i was looking for and i saw that the video was uploaded just an Hour ago!!! Thank you!!!
Absolutely brilliant tutorial dude! I'm a complete FS noob and this helped me a lot. Thanks! Keep up the good work :)
Great video! Very helpful! Please make a series because you are the best tutorial I have seen
i have totally fallen in love with IFR. Would love a quick explanaiton of the VNV mode.
I was sooo excited for the landing!
Thank you for putting this & your other videos together!! Very educational & helpful!!
To say that this noob (me) is overwhelmed, is an understatement. I will bookmark this video for future because I definitely want to learn the instrument landing, etc. But this is a bit advanced for me, I need the extreme very basics to learn first lol. Thanks for the great tutorial though, I will be coming back to it once I learn more.
Instrument flying is definitely considered advanced. Don’t get too upset if it takes you a while to grasp it. The G1000/Glass cockpits can also be intimidating to new pilots, so it could take some time to get comfortable with that system as well.
This is perfect. Thank you very much! I'd be very interested in how to set up a holding pattern according to the chart and how to do more of the advanced concepts that you mention at the end of the video.
These are great! Can you make a tutorial showing in-depth flight planning on the world map?
Gracias amigo, gracias a este tutotial por fin lo logré, vi ms de 14 videos en español y cuando me di por vencido entre a este, buenísimo.
Awesome videos!!! I needed this as I am learning the instruments and couldn’t figure out why the course heading knob wouldn’t work. Now I see why LOL!
I should not have watched this whole video in one go without having the sim running in front of me. HOLY INFORMATION OVERLOAD. I am half way through the video and completely forgotten where we started. I need to break this into steps and play along with you or I will never get it through my head.
Loved your video. Would love to see a instruments only series.
Wow...thank you so much! This is exactly what I needed for my next flight! I'm also glad to see that it isn't my old and slow PC that's causing the super-high pitch sensitivity; hopefully the Aug 27 update will fix that as well as the wonky AP issues.
Have learned so much with your tutorials, thanks a lot, keep them coming please, blue skies !
