Flight Sim School | Ep-4: Cold engine start procedure | X-plane 11 | C172 REP
Вставка

- There are three different start procedures for starting the engine in the C172, and those depend on the situation with fuel inside the engine. Today we cover the most common procedure: the cold engine start.

I tried watching jeff faviango's tutorials after watching your first tutorial just because he was more famous, I was wrong. Thanks for your tutorials, you are an amazing teacher!
Jeff is still great tho
Finally! Someone talkes about this.
Very detailed video! Thank you for your work! Impressive !
Great explanation! Thanks for the entire playlist!
Thank you! Now I know what & how & why.... The instructions were clear and understandable!
Great video congratulations
Nice video, only one thing left to do after engine start and that is to turn on the avionics, maybe that is part of the next video. Looking forward to the next video.
Yes that's part of the next few videos where I explain how the avionics work, and how to get atis
Can you make a video of how you set up your controls one day including set yp the views. Thank you. I will star using xplane10
Nice. Thanks
Thank you for the great tutorials! You've answered a lot of my questions. But as I was watching you lean the mixture, after you've reached 1300 RPM you brought it down to 1000 again. Why wouldn't you keep it at 1300 until you are actually ready for take off?
Hey Digital! Nice video and very helpful and I m sure it will help people out with the Skyhawk. I use a different rule to lean the mixture on gnd tho: No risk to aggressively lean the mixture on the ground since you 'll stay around 1000 or maybe 1200 rpm MAX. So I lean up to the point that the engine is suffocating then slightly enrich a tiny bit. Why? Because for any reason, if I forget to enrich for take off, when I 'll apply full throttle the engine will not reach its expected RPM and I 'll notice it immediately. That s what I use in real world too. Just a tip to not forget enriching the mixture before take off 😁
As I understand that's the most common method used ;). "lean up to the point that the engine is suffocating then slightly enrich a tiny bit", the other one is based on the EGT lecture.
@@AlexanderGarzon agree. I fly mainly on a C152 and there is no EGT gauge. So the aggressive lean is fast easy and safe. But the other method is fine too.
Hi My name is Carlos. Just want to ask you how you control your views, is building combination keys or hoistick hat button?. Thank you.
Hatswitch on my joystick for smooth looking, and hotkeys for pre-set vieuwpoints
@@digitalaviator5088 Thank you
I'm following your video and my cesna 172 fails to start and I have the volts word lit up on the display. Any ideas
Are you using the Reality Expansion Pack (REP)? It keeps track of battery charge. If it's too empty the engine won't start. Check in the maintenance menu of REP what your battery level is and fix it.
Nope I'm not running rep.. The only plug in is xpuipc
@@nigelmorris4769 I think when starting without the rep you need to feed a little but of mixture when starting. That's not realistic behaviour, but I think that's how X-Plane does it.
