I just bought x plane 11 and the explanations in these tutorials are so confusing, watched your video and picked it up straight away, cheers!
i like how he correctly showed us how to do this tutorial and ended up with a failing score
I like how the tutorial starts off with you at like 30 degrees nose down.
+opmike343 I know right?
Flight School #3 "VOR at unusual attitude Navigation"
opmike343 and like 4000 ft
I LOVED unusual attitude training! For my FAA checkride he was flying me through the clouds, that was a surprise.
Jeff Favignano sounds like a cool DPE, lucky you
Thank God you explained this mate cause that xplane 11 instruction is shite. they should hire you to do their tutorials. Thanks again.
Glad it helped you Steve!
I mean it said most of what you needed to know in game and he added just a bit that wasn't required (which is why he scored so low). The only thing the game didn't tell us was how to actually set the new heading, or identify which gauges we needed to be monitoring, which Jeff did very well.
True. Instead of writing paragraphs to describe a gauge they did not bother pointing an arrow.
Really really funny thing! I watched your videos 4 years ago. Never tried X Plane again until this week. Bought X Plane 12..and noticed how I crashed when following their directions for landing etc. I went looking for tutorials and your videos just eased my frustration. Give me a sign if you're still around. Thank you!!
This didn't tell us how to set the VOR frequency and identify. That's kind of critical.
lol
How about telling us what VOR actually stands for? Even more critical. Yes I can use google, but this is a flight school for beginners.
@@Ash_18037 VHF (Very High Frequency) Omni-directional Radio-Range. That's not very instructive. VOR is a directional radio signal. Aviation radios along with the VOR instruments can determine the direction toward (or away from) that signal.
@@nukedaddy See I always thought it was Visual Object Reference. Very instructive.
Love how you add extra to the lessons from your personal experience of flying Jeff! Really makes the whole learning process a lot easier, great work as always!
Thank you Gavin!
LOL When the plane keeps diving... "Are they gonna kill us?"
On iOS when the plane nosedives it continues to nosedive and gives back the plane at about 800 ft.
So I came to watch some gaming videos to get a break from studying my Avionics examinations. But instead, I'm learning stuff for my exam on a gaming channel hahahaha.
haha that's how it goes around here
Thanks again for this tutorial. What you're explaining is what should be explained in the sim. When i tried this, after reaching Sisters Island, I simply turned to heading 035. I had to correct myself using the radar screen.
Yes, the instructor does do some wierd things in this flight lesson. But the major thing missing from this flight lesson is making the pilot find and enter the proper codes to fly this ILS approach. That's at least half the work, and the more obscure part for most who have never flown an ILS approach.
I am not a pilot and have never been to a school. Would you mind explaining how to find the codes and enter them on the nav screen please! I just started xplane11 but basically I would like to fully train myself this way.
@@gruanger they will be in charts I think. You enter the frequency listed on the chart for the VOR and listen to the morse code to confirm (if available). I'm not a pilot either nor do I have many hours in simulators, but another tutorial explained this. I think you tune using the radio stack on the right. I don't know the range of a VOR, but generally higher frequencies have less range.
Who's happy that he did back2back videos
45%??? That's some bullshit. You did it just like I was taught to do IRL 25 years ago.
yep haha
redwhitentrue there must be some reason for the 45% score. I think a step may have been skipped after crossing over Sister's Island
Nice flying enjoy your 45% check ride ......lol
"Your school must've been 55% cheaper than most schools then!" - Laminar Research, probably
"Are they gonna kill us? He said he had the airplane." Dude, you have me cracking up with these videos. I've flown these tutorials before and was thinking about the same thing every time! Spot on! LOL
Jeff, your additional explanations really helped me better understand what the 'flight school' was trying to teach. Thanks!
Glad I was able to make sense of it for you man
Same here, did the tutorial yesterday twice, but the little details you added are priceless
I was playing the game was getting lost most of the time, thanks for showing me to do 🙏😊
Playing X-Plane 10 on Android device is quite hard especially on the sensitivity... hope theyll release 11 on Android...
Jericho Castillo yep ;(
Quite hard indeed
they won’t release x plane 11 for mobile, first off it’s too big of a game for a phone to process it.
@@creamythroat lmao there a lot of phones can run it , its all about if they want to
Phones nowadays are powerful devices
@@AlwafiCharki dude are you high? a phone would over heat almost instantly if you tried to run x plane 11 😅
Thanks after doing this tutorial 4 times and watching two vor navigation videos i now know what “wait till the needle flips” means and can complete it. very cool
At last!! Now I understand, and it is all down to YOU Jeff, not the hard to understand play-through that the video offers. Thank you.
+Eezee Listen Glad to help bud
Not sure if you're a Rush fan but I noticed the time was 21:12
New subscriber to your channel I just downloaded this sim last night and I'm learning a lot from you thanks for sharing your knowledge fam.
"he said he had the airplane!" I freaking died! 😂😂😂
That was an awesome tutorial, thank you so much for taking time to make it :). I kept getting lost and flying around in circles with their tutorial :(
This and 911 operator are what I love seeing right now... give so love back to the flight sim views too awesome
I’ve done this challenge dozens of times and can only get 71% still not passing the challenge… I’m not a pilot so makes me happy you got 45% … still picked up tips off you so thanks going to try again .
This commentary is legendary lol
Just discovered your channel. First time flight simming. Invaluable, thanks!
Great video Jeff! I have been one of your subscribers for almost 3 years...... Keep going! Your videos are greatly entertaining and educational (flight sim videos) for people easing in into the life of simulators. Keep it up!
Thank you man for sticking with the channel for so long!
Great video Jeff they are still getting better you should do a atc video because people can't understand them and can you please do a live stream for my summer car plz
Finally makes sense to me now. Thanks!
This the most confusing part of my life
Do you know what it's like having kids? I don't. Well shit I'm a kid myself.
Could you do an irl flight soon
LB967 ifr*
No, IRL.
RockyPixel looked it up and I'm getting nothing but Ireland stuff. that's so random...
Or it's just an In Real Life flight? ;)
IRL stands for In Real Life.
Great job on flying your a great pilot I hope to fly with you on x plane 10 one day
Also plz sub to my channel it would mean a lot to me I don't have very many subs
I wouldn't say they are getting rid of VOR, they are still hugely popular. I have flown 1 plane with a GPS, but almost all planes have VOR, we have like 5 VOR's in San Diego. We have POGI, Mission Bay, Julian, Oceanside, and Tijuana. I guess that last one is in mexico but it is literally on the border and we use it all the time.
Rhanks for making this! The ingame instructions werent detailed enough and this clarified it for me!
The best procedure is 1) tune identify and monitor 2) Turn to place the head of the bearing pointer under your heading 3) center the CDI and maintain it centered. Does this aircraft have a bearing pointer?
With no bearing pointer (like on a real RMI) check for a TO indication then center the CDI and maintain it.
I find the way that X Plane randomly siezes control of the cokpit views and controls really frustrating. Also, weirdly, when control is returned, the Pitch Stabiliser is in the fulloy nose down position. Be sure to know where the keys are to return them to the mid position. It's a really difficult tutorial, especially for someone like me as a beginner with very little explanaton of what's happenning.
Ok I know this is a late comment to this video but where do the numbers 295 and 035 come from? I cant see them anywhere on any of the instruments so I'm totally confused what that even means or how to follow it. I'm trying to learn as much as I can on a flight simulator while i'm saving up to go to a real flight school so any help is appreciated! Great tutorial btw, the x plane instructions don't explain anything very well so this has helped a lot!
Thanks for giving a rough idea of what VOR is used for. But neither you or the flight school actually tell what VOR stands for? (It is a beginner tutorial). So many acronyms!
VOR =
CDI =
OBS = Omni Bearing Selector
DME =Distance Measuring Equipment
CDI = Course Deviation indicator
As badass as X Plane 11 looks nothing quite beats real world flying ✈️
very true, however using flyinsidexp on the oculus rift may change your mind ;)
Very well explained, had been stuck on this tutorial
Great video Jeff keep em comin
2:15 I had the same reaction when I did that tutorial 😂
Yeah, I gave up on the VOR lesson. The needle stays buried to the right no matter which direction I fly, and I have to keep the stick buried nose-down just to keep it from climing too steeply. So not helpful.
Thx again for the great vid. Early 2017 will be setting up computer to fly .
Thanks for the help! Got there in the end! Not great guidance from X-Plane if you aren’t a pilot. Go to which way what heading??
Yay i love this series jeff 😁
Great info Jeff, learned a bunch!
They will never get rid of VOR because of GPS. The main reason is because it's a backup system in a wartime situation.
I’m doing it on an iPad and after the tutorial is done you basicly have no control over the plane. It just keeps on nosediving and then leveling.
NOW it makes sense!
the key to finish this challenge with a qualified score is to fly the VOR line from sister island to Juneau international as long as possible, note there is a time limit, the author of this video might do right thing at the final moment of time limit, but it doesn't matter, that's why he got a failed score
Hi ,Jeff I view the video on VOR. I'm a private pilot and would like to recommend if you can do a video on FMC on Xplane and flight plan. Thanks
Awesome Video Jeff.
Thank you Peter, how are you man?
Doing good how are you jeff?
doing well, pretty excited for Christmas!
Ah and GPS totorials on using the C172 and the Cirrus SF 50 thanks
Thank goodness you explained this it’s complicated as ****
ty for the great explanation good vid
Jeff did you find out what gave you that score? Is it a glitch or something? I'm trying to master VOR navigation and get about the same score... I don't think I am doing anything wrong either.
Same here. I've done this lesson probably thirty times and typically get around 50% or 60%. A couple of times I got in the low 80s, 82 at best. Those times I flew at quite a slow airspeed, basically always had the needle glued exactly in the center of the CDI, and intercepted the second radial super fast and accurately (staying at 35 till the needle moved, then moving toward it when it stopped).
Honestly I think the lesson is buggy, or way too demanding for the score to be actually useful.
Great videos, though, Jeff, really enjoy them. It's nice to hear you explain the concepts in more detail than the "flight school" does and you've got a good sense of humor too!
Bro more summer car!!!
Lol I live right near an airport and under a flightpath so sometimes there is the strong odour of jet fuel, during which if I'm watching a flight sim vid I will start to panic. Lol rip me.
ah yes I love that smell
Its nice until you're at 32,000 feet above the Pacific Ocean. Ayy lmao.
I hope there's an STC for those blinking gauges ; ) lol
Hey i just saw two of your videos and insta subed, loved the explanation. Just a quick noob question from a lockdown player '=D. My Cesna tends to trim upwards all the time and i have to correct the trim all the time until goes to the horizon but it's really a pain in the ass and it seems that you don't have this problem, i'm playing the same lesson actually. Any clue? The Trim is not configured for TO when starting the mission and i have to play with it... Thanks in advance.
So you have to turn slightly more in the direction it changed to (35) to get it to start lining up again?
Where you at Jeff no uploads : (
Weekend bud
Jeff Favignano ok I know its good to have a few days off now and then
Plz do helicopter videos
Are they gonna kill us-Jeff favignano 2016
Still have no idea how to configure the instrument to A - Tell me where I am relative to the station (without cheating and using GPS), and B how to configure the autopilot system to automatically fly it once I set it up.
Love It! :] Good video
I dont understand the needle always points right for me after I fly over the first waypoint
Dovetail should take a page from laminar research because Xplane 11's flight school is far superior to DTG's Flight School...you know what I'm sayin?
If VORs are going out of use, what is used to map waypoints for GPS navigation? RDB's? What will this mean for aircraft that are not equipped with GPS?
waypoints/intersections are completely fabricated now and used for RNAV (random navigation) I think this pretty much puts a solid foot down that airplanes will be required to have at least GPS for navigation. I have to say VOR's don't seem to be going anywhere as the FAA still favors them. They are being phased out slowly though.
Nice video
Nice one
About what percent of commercial flights still use VOR? Because it seems like i always watch these videos using VOR navigation instead of gps
I got 70% but cannot work out how to get higher lol
How come your plane is stable. When I try my training the plane keep rolling either to left or right.
Hey Jeff whats your computer specs? Thanks! Also great video!
thanks jeff
you are very welcome :)
Its like a deal breaker for me that they leave out vital information during the tutorial process. We should not have to do an online tutorial to know how to complete a tutorial. I think I will also check out Flight Sim X ... I don't care that much for the graphics if it means I have less searching online and more enjoyment in game. All the same thanks for the explanations. Much appreciated.
You lost me from the beginning, how do I set the obs for where I need to go?
So to fly towards the VOR, you have to tune into the NAV radio of that VOR?
is there a way to check how far you are exactly from the VOR?
Damn my phone vibrated like an earthquake
Nice!
pense num tutorial mal explicado pqp. ainda bem que tem esse video. muito melhor explicado que o tutorial do jogo.
This so confusing
On android, the game calibrates itself, but then later on I'm sitting upside down flying straight. Like, wtf. I keep moving my device like in the sky, to keep it levelled. Like wtf.
Question: Is it wise to decommission all the VORs, or is the maintenance expense to prohibitive to keep them in service; even as a backup in case GPS fails?
As a flight simmer myself and ex online atc controller on a private network. In my view it's going to happen the chances of a complete gps failure are incredibly small the satellites are pretty well protected in their orbits they get minor impact damage so does any other satellite (just read what nasa says in documentaries etc) plus gps is also being improved rapidly and it will soon be even more accurate and pilots still have VFR as backup. In terms of cost as equipment gets older it does get considerably more expensive to maintain and if new technology is there that can do the same role and more then it makes financial sense ok in the short term it's going to be expense to install but it will be cheaper in maintaining for years to come eventually recooping install cost
I have the same problem. I can't finish this ex with more than 45%. It is kind a bug)
Ok, this isn't a comment on you or what you were doing, but the sim. That was completely useless information. I am not a pilot, I don't know what VOR's are or what they do. They really didn't explain what they are, how they work or how to use them. It didn't tell me how to find them, I would assume you use a map or a chart? It didn't tell me how to set the gauge or heading or any of that. Seems like that would be pretty important. And don't you have to enter a frequency somewhere? It would be kind of nice to know where to find that frequency and where and how to enter it. Again, pretty curcial information lol. All it really did was tell you to keep a white line centered in the gauge. That kind of seems like the easy part lol. Without your naration I would be completely lost and confused. I mean I am still lost and confused, but I least I have general idea of what you were doing. I don't know what you were doing or how, but I get the idea behind it.
Thanks for the videos but I don't exactly understand why you're being sarcastic about the game's messages. I understand that you fly for real but not everyone does and I really enjoy the inclusion of these lessons.
Hello ,
Please i need a help to excute succesfull VOR navigation with Cessna
I am looking at what system to get to run xPlane 11. Suggestions?
pls do a lspdfr mod install tutorial
This game is anoying me as it does not tell you how to tune your aircraft to VOR's i've been all over youtube and can not find it!
you tune them via the nav part of your radio ... using skyvector will not always work though since sometimes the in-game frequencies are incorrect ... you tun the frequency ... make sure your on NAV vs GPS ... and you rotate the radial until the 'TO' shows up... TO - means you are flying 'TO' the VOR 'VOR's .... I keep the new frequency of the next radial on standby so when I intersect the current VOR I switch over and re-align... hopefully that helps you a little bit =\ also VOR's have a maximum range they can be picked up from ... the VOR system is being decommissioned in real life so don't expect to have them available in less traveled areas... I for one am learning to use VOR's first before I worry about my GPS as honestly that is plenty easy to figure out if you can hit a few buttons and enter the airport ID code...
Is it necessary to take real flight school to play this simulator
No
can you do lspdfr
Thank you for this, the tutorial for this step was horrible
many more copies of the same xplane gives me depression :(
