For those of you asking for the 747 ILS tutorial it is now uploaded! ua-cam.com/video/mScAGSbw-kA/v-deo.html
I watched your video and I did it! I performed an ILS landing on rwy 27 at EHAM Amsterdam with the auto pilot! :D (note: I never played a flight sim before) Can't wait to see and learn more about the A320 NEO
Nice! I am glad I was able to help :) I will be uploading full flights of the A320 soon!
Thanks ! I did a full flight from KLAX to KSFO everything was perfect but when I reached KSFO I had no idea how to find the ILS, it was a mess lol
Youre welcome! Be sure to always search up the ILS frequency and also study the area so you know how to plan your arrival :)
Look up flight planning using the MSFS plan screen - you want to set more than just your departure and arrival. There are more dropdowns to select specific approaches that'll line you right up to the runway with a lot of room to catch the ILS - and as mentioned you need to look up the ILS Frequency for the airport (just look up the airport name + ILS frequency and theres a number of sites that list them - if the airport is large there will be a few for each of the different runways and approaches). Here's a good tutorial: ua-cam.com/video/yiaDG5HWBHU/v-deo.html
Also, if you start hot on the runway (instead of a gate), the ILS will already be applied and in the computer (and frequency on the ILS NAV channel). Not sure if it does that with a cold start (I dont think it does).
FINALLY someone who's explaining it clearly :-)
Glad you found this helpful :)
I have tried severals ILS approchs without not luck
@@mmanzur where does it goes wrong?
@@mmanzur I made an ILS tutorial that may help you out. Check out my tutorial. It will help you out for sure.
Thanks exactly what I was looking for!
Youre welcome! Glad you enjoyed it :)
You absolute legend. Didn't really open the checklist until now. Using that will familiarise a newcomer to flight sims like me to pretty much all aircrafts. Thanks pal
I appreciate the kind words mate! Cheers and happy flying!
This channel is soo underrated
I appreciate the comment! Much love!
@@Decivye yea keep it up my guy you'll hit 100k easily if u post this type of content 👍
I'm flying to Manchester rn hopefully this works
@@cleverdom1230 happy flying! oh just to let you know some airports ILS are not working properly on the a320 not sure if Microsoft has fixed this issue yet but give it a try :)
@@Decivye alrighty
I believe you can set the AP speed faster by using mouse wheel.
Thank you that is actually something I didnt know! I will try it out next time I launch the game! :)
every but can be used faster with the mousewheel in MSFS2020 :D
@@Decivye yep its a godsent, every switch or dial in the cockpit can be manipulated by mousing over and using the scroll wheel :)
Thanks I was trying to learn how to do all these ILS things on the A320neo.
Youre welcome! Happy flying! :)
Pretty new MSFS simmer here: I highly recommend the Logitech Extreme 3D Pro joystick. It's $30-$40, but it performs great and I haven't had any issues so far. It is leaps and bounds above using a keyboard, and is way more immersive
Thank you so much, just starting in this kind of simulators, and you explained everything perfectly! Amazing job, keep it up :)
Thank you glad it helped you out! Stay tuned for more :)
Great vid! Much easier to understand than the other I've seen so far. Thank you very much for the quality content and I hope you get your ATPL soon ! ;)
Quite far from it but yes I am working towards it. CPL first tho! Thank you for your support! :)
After learning how to do ILS landings the A320 has hands down become my favorite plane to fly!
That is awesome to hear!
Pretty good for beginners. I Need more Autopilot tutorials and Practice. I just bought the TCA Thrustmaster controls for the Airbus but it looks like with the autopilot I may not really need these controls.. June 2022, Northern California.
Really just getting into flight simulator for the first time and this video is super helpful! Thanks! You pretty much just taught me the majority of my knowledge on this plane!
Glad to have helped out! Stay tuned for the next video I think it will give you a greater understanding on the airbus cockpit! :)
thanks once again, really helpful, i put everything in a notepad to take notes!
Glad it was helpful!
Bravo! Very informative video! Thanks a lot!
Excellent tutorial. The best i found so far on youtube. Keep on going.
Thank you! Glad it helped you out!
Excellent tutorial, Thank you for sharing the detailed information as it makes it clear as day. Keep up the great work and happy flying friends!
Love the positive attitude glad I could help you! Happy flying :)
Come and join my discord server so you guys can interact with each other and myself if im available! Link in the description of this video! :)
Followed this video and did my first successful a320 landing as a new simmer!
Great video bro
Super thrilled to hear that! Glad I could help you! :)
@@Decivye hey, i tried doing an ILS approach by flying from anther airport but for some reason, the auto pilot altitude selector and speed selector is not working for me.
@@NoahLanson That's odd. Try resetting the altitude selector or maybe its a bug.
Very helpful video. Thank you so much.
Yo! Thanks for sharing. You are crazy to play with a keyboard only but I admire you!
hahaha well I mean its the only option I have for now! Hoping to get flight controls soon :)
Thanks for the video. Didn't quite figure this out on my own but glad you can guide me through it.
Youre welcome! Glad I could help! :)
Great video man, thanks!
I don't know how easy it is to do, but I think it would be cool if you could chapter the video into different sections? This would make it so that viewers could easily find the section they're looking for, whilst the rest of us can happily watch the whole take-off etc.
I could do this for sure moving forward, thank you!
Very nice video bro, you seem very experienced and know what you're doing! Keep it up.
Thank you for your feedback! I appreciate it! Im on my way to getting my commercial license in real life so im doing a jump start on learning airliners through simulators and other pilots :)
Great video, thank you! I was looking for the ILS frequencies for airports on FS2020 like FSX but it's not there which is a bit of a shame.
Youre welcome! A quick google search should do the thing :)
Agree! They should put that feature back!
Excited to see you get the recognition you deserve!
Thanks for the support brother!
Thanks a lot man, I hope you can get some hotas soon, because I can tell you really love it!
I appreciate it thank you!
Just the video i was looking for. very informative. Thanks
Cheers! Glad you liked it :)
How do you know what heading to use when you want to line up with the runway? Any way to find runway frequencies in game, or do I need to google it every time I want to land? Thanks for the videos I just subbed. Looking forward to more beginner guides!
Just look at the runway number. If you are taking off at runway 24 for example, your heaving with be 240 you basically just add another 0 to the runway number for your heading. I personally use google to get my ILS frequency
@@Jounas1123 You can eye ball it which is what I do. You can also do the math if you want each turn is 90 degrees of heading turned.
Thnx, I like your tuts, keep up the good work mate!
Cheers mate!
Like the intro music.
thank you!
Thanks for the video! Can you also explain the same procedure for the 747. I don't know how to tune the ILS freq. Thanks
It will be in a future video! :)
Good Luck Bro and hope u reach 100000 sub👍🏻🙋🏻♂️
Thank you for the kind words! I would be beyond happy if I can make it that far up! I will for sure continue to work on this channel until I am unable to do so! Thanks again for the support :)
@@Decivye ill do all my best to support you :D
@@GunzKilleR27 I appreciate it thank you :)
Awesome video, try out Monect PC if you can, it turns your phone into a gamepad and I've been using it with FS2020 now and definitely works way better than a keyboard.
Thanks for the tip! I do have plans on getting my hands on some flight controls soon tho! :)
Landing like a pro
Thank you! Honestly not my best but making do with just a keyboard
Nice thanks! This will help me!
Glad to hear that!
Nice vid I finally learned it😅
Great video. What exactly does the "approach mode" button do during the landing?
assists you during final approach guides the plane down :)
Great video, btw sometimes the approach mode doesn't enable for me: I approach the airport, enable the LOC but doesn't go automatically into Approach mode and I can't see any purple sign on the dash confirming that, not always and so its' not lowering the altitude by itself. Also the radio usually if i try to get the right descending altitude before tells me to go higher and keep altitude, so usually I go longer and cannot land on the airport even in AP mode because the information via radio are wrong. What's the problem?
Glad you enjoyed the video! I found out that the ILS can be quite buggy sometimes it doesnt work at all even tho everything is set up correctly. This has happened to myself and some of my other viewers that I gave private lessons to. As far as the approach mode you can switch that on manually it shouldnt be an issue however, the pink diamonds need to be working giving us an indication that we are captured on the LOC and GS.
@@Decivye sadly I can enable the Loc or Appr but no diamonds is the dash 😔
Maybe I do something wrong in the world map? I select ifs low or high altitude, I choose them in accord to a decent route and then I load my flight.
Can you do also a video about a missed landing? And how to insert the data again to get the right nav AP guidance to land again in a second try? 🙂 Thanks
well.. I've found a bug or maybe I was wrong. By selecting ILS and custom airways before the loadign sometimes there is a trouble for him with the route. You can see blinking DECEL point in the right place and than near the airport back in forth, so that's the problem. Selection custom on destination now the purple guide seems to work, very strange, dont' know if my fault by selection incorrect approach before loading the flight or game bug. Or maybe i was not selecting the right nav frequency when communicated via radio.
This was very helpful, thank you so much!
Youre welcome! :)
you don't need to disable auto thrust, you can simply put throttle to 0
yes we corrected that in the newest video :)
So helpful thanks so much my man!
Youre welcome! Glad I was able to help out :)
Very good!!!!!
Thank you! :)
Great video subbed 👌👊
Thank you so much! Glad you enjoyed it :)
Is it possible in the daher 930 to land with ils? Would love some more "advanced" tutorials for this kind of stuff, like nav modes and such
Not going to lie I have not tinkered with the daher 930 to know my way around it's cockpit just yet. I mainly focus on the airliners. maybe sometime down the line I can look into it and do a video when I am confident enough to teach it :)
Yes. I did a tutorial on it. Graphics and step by step instructions. I'm an ATP rated pilot with 7,000 hrs of real flight time. It talks about NAV modes too.
Believe or not: this is perfect tutorial. Just h9pe I will no crash this time
Or miss approach
Thank you I wish you the best of luck! When I first started flying the simulators doing ILS landings were trial and errors so don't feel bad if you dont get it the first few times :)
Just keep practicing :)
Does MFS 2020 have other checklist as well? I mean like, after takeoff checklist, climb checklist, descend checklist, before landing checklist, etc.. It would be really nice. I haven't bought it
Not that I know of as of now if you want to do airline procedures I suggest you look for an actualy check list online :)
Thanks, Man.. Do u have any recommendation sites to check about this airline procedures? Because I’m don’t know whether it’s a true step-by-step or not, based on reality
@@deka1408 Sorry I dont really have a recommended site for that I normally just search on youtube for real ops related videos tho there are few
Do you have to enter the ILS frequency manually always, or is there a way to do it simpler either preset from FS2020 itself or from the flight computer (I know in the 747 at least in game you can pick ILS approaches in the flight comp and it picks up the ILS settings automatically (whether thats true to life or not I have no idea)
there is a way to do it via the FMC but the easiest way if you want is to set it on the main menu :)
Decivye ah cool so you mean if I set a destination on fs world map screen and pick an ils runway it will set it for me? Just saves googling 😛
No matter what weather preset I'm using, my plane is rolling left/right aggressively whenever trying to land :\ makes the landing very difficult after taking off autopilot
So far I have not encountered that issue in any of my ILS landings :(
Great job - question is there a LOC Morse code in real airbus like in Boeing or is it missing in sim ?
I dont think there is in this one. If we are talking about a real life A320 I have yet to experience it.
Thanks Buddy must be Boeing thing I guess
@@rsvette123 no worries happy flying!
I miss VOR tutorials from MFSX. This new tutorial is much too short. Can you make video about flying using VORs on different planes? I fly mostly Cessna but airliners will be ok I guess.
Yeah maybe somewhere down the line I will do a VOR video :)
great video has helped me out big time
Youre welcome :) Glad it helped you out!
I'm new and trying to learn how to fly keep atm keep crashing while trying to line up with run way and it turns grim. btw can I use this frequency for either left or right of the run way ?
when you said intercept the localizer what do you mean by that do you need to look out for something before you can press the loc then? sorry for the questions
@@Cluelessseafishing The Frequency I used is specific for runway 24 of Manila Airport and can only be used on that runway :)
@@Cluelessseafishing To simplify it it means when the plane is perpendicular to the runway on final approach. I would recommend setting up the exact way I did it to practice. Use the same airport and runway and what not. Kinda hard to explain this without visual content but, hope this clarifies something to an extent. :)
I am new to the world of Flight Sims and I have a question of which I think you as a real life private pilot could answer it.
Is it allowed or usual to mix up visual flight and instrumental flight? Like using landmarks for navigation but using the instruments to have more control over the aircraft?
In real life my experience is limited to VFR flights. I have not gotten my instrument rating to know all the do's and don'ts just yet. My actual knowledge with VFR procedures is quite limited. I know a few things here and there that I take the time to learn on my own e.g. this video. However based on my flying experience as a VFR pilot I have never experienced sharing the same instrument for approach as VFR flights. They normally have their own thing going. Hope this helps :)
Basically no. IFR has strict fix to fix clearances and a legal requirement to reference approved equipment to verify compliance. You can use anything to help but the official equipment must be used. You can switch from VFR to IFR or back any number of times in one flight. To go IFR you need ATC permission.
@@frederf3227 Thanks for sharing :)
Sorry you haven't flown in 5 years. Hopefully you can get back to flying and get your instrument rating.
I am hoping I can get back up there soon too! Life is tough but will get by!
How you find runway in the dark from gate to runway
follow the taxi lights and use your VFR map :)
Bro what's the shortcut key for the reverse thrust? Also how to set it up just using the keyboard?
Mine is set to 2. You can change this in the options menu
@@Decivye Thanks! I do it manually. I set camera position wherein I click the reverse thrust haha challenging I cannot view my landing nicely
@@carlandreitabuada8585 Thats quite tedious haha better bind that key!
That check list icon was driving my OCD off the charts 😤 how can you leave it there so long. Apart from that 👍
haha sorry bout that! Cheers!
press APPR button in the last turn before straight toward runway, disengage autopilot at 500feet coz CAT I ILS
Thank you for sharing :)
Can you please do a video on How to use ILS in Boeing 747 in Microsof Flight Simulator
Hi there! 747 videos are being worked on it might take a few days or so for me to upload an ILS video about it :)
Thanks alot. 747 ILS is much complicated then the A320 neos. And there is no clear video about it. Today I used ILS landing for the first time and it was a success thanks to your video!
@@MaaazikGaming Glad to know your landing was a success! I just finished editing our first video about the 747 so the ILS video should come in the next few episodes maybe 2 or 3 episodes down. Stay tuned!
OMG, I've been doing this ILS landing all wrong since FSX. I never knew I have to set the ILS frequency on the radio, and activate the localizer on approach. I never knew ILS would descend the plane automatically as soon as it captures the glideslope. I've been using the IFR approach mode from the flight plan, and I have to descend manually during final approach. And I got confused why my plane suddenly banks right/left right before touch down as if it's trying to abort landing. You video is very helpful, I've learned something I've been wrong for the past 15 years. Thank you.
Glad I was able to help out! Thank you for your feedback :)
Fab. Do you not need enter to enter course along with ILS frequency? Thanks
I did not enter course for this run and it worked out just fine. I may have missed a procedure or 2 but essentially this works just fine :)
If you have flight plan once ATC tells you approach to follow turning loc on should work.
Oh ok cool thanks. I'll try it tonight. When I tried yesterday atc didn't vector me to ILS just forgot about me ha. And mcdu wouldn't let me enter the frequency or ILS course
@@mark1992 No worries! Hope it works out for you. Just follow step by step what I did here it should be just fine. Happy flying! :)
Does atc clearance need to be approved first? I cannot seem to get the autopilot to lock onto the ils. The glide slope isnt showing up either. Getting very frustrated now and been trying for hours😩 am I missing something here? Any help would be much appreciated thanks
Hi there! The entire video was done without any ATC clearance so if you follow everything it should work out for you as it did other people. Don't sweat it tho I am working on doing a full flight video and in there I will explain my landing process again :)
Decivye I just realised all this time I didn’t set the ils frequency in Nav 1. For some reason I thought this was done automatically in the flight planner when setting your departure and arrival airport in the world map section. Obviously not. I managed to get it working thanks for the video it was very helpful just me not following it properly. Look forward to your other videos.
@@Phil-gv7xs Glad to hear that! Happy flying! :)
thx soo much bro
Youre welcome! Glad you found this helpful :)
On just before you touchdown on landing, you mention flaring. What do you mean here exactly? I'm following your video to the letter here but the aircraft is bouncing off the runway when I try to land it. Thanks.
when you flare you bring the nose up every so slightly so it doesnt slam or bounce on the runway. you basically want to keep pulling back on the stick so the speed bleeds out.
@@Decivye Thanks for the note. I'm still bouncing off the runway even though i bring up the nose. Do you start bringing up the nose just before the plane touches the ground? I feel like I'm also coming in way too fast, but I've checked my speed with yours in the video. All looks the same. Auto throttle should take care of that anyway, correct?
@@smndonovan Yes for the airbus a320 I leave auto throttle on until its time to idle the engines right before touchdown around the 20ft mark. you start to raise up the nose of the aircraft as youre coming for the touch down somewhere around the 30 ft call out. Try watching this video of mine ua-cam.com/video/GaoUJnGdo48/v-deo.html its a full flight but I share some helpful landing method here so it might help you out and give you an idea on when you should start flaring. BTW I forgot what my final approach speed was on the ILS video but to keep you up to date your final approach speed should be around 140kts. Hope this helps! :)
@@Decivye Really appreciate the tips. I'll check it all out. Thanks.
@@Decivye Managed to get two really nice smooth landings. It's all about flaring the aircraft at the right moment and in the right way. Thanks for all you help. You make great videos.
How do you get the view out of the passenger window of the wing?
I personally have not tinkered with camera options yet so I dont really know. For now ive just been in cockpit mode the whole time.
Can u make it plz for the 747?
I actually do have plans on making a 747 ILS tutorial so stay tuned :)
Yes thats all I'm missing got everything done well except landing . Flying VOR
@@themetalicious7195 happy to hear that! You will get better in time takes a bit of practice. :)
@@Z28-h2y Thank you for sharing :)
can you do one video with ILS and ATC together?
Its on the next video just wait for the upload in about 6 hours or so :)
Can I ask you or if anyone else knows, how is he snapping to different parts of the plane like the overhead pannel
Ctrl and any number :)
@@Decivye Thank you so much! Great tutorial by the way you earned a sub. When does a plane like this need to engage the speed brake on landing? Or is it auto?
@@v2highlights554 Thank you for your support! You arm the speedbrakes before landing and they automatically deployed on touch down :)
Can someone please tell me how I can not have the auto throttle always come on when landing? I’ve disconnected it and it always come back on.
Make sure you set your thrust levers to the climb setting during the landing and you should be able to normally idle the engines when landing. I have not had an issue with this so far. I have facilitated other viewers flights as well and they have had no issue as well.
Why every time I land auto thrust kicks in and makes me ruin my landing I turn it off aswell as auto pilot and still does it even when I put power into idle so confused any ideas?
For normal landing not ils
try setting your final approach speed to 150kts and keep it there. Manually disengage autothrottle if you have to as well. If the problem continues I may need to see a screen shot of your landing configuration and about the time when autothrottle kicks in :)
do you tune the nav1 radio like you did on fsx or is there a new system. trying to figure it out
Its not exactly like the old FSX but, you do tune it in. I do it in the video as well I think around 8:00 or something
Decivye how do I tune the nav 1 radio?
Decivye can’t figure out autopilot it’s driving me insane
@@ThatAussieGirl I am rendering a new video I retouched on ILS landings andd teach basic ATC so try watching it maybe it will help you out with autopilot :)
Decivye not sure what I did but I think I’ve worked it out
how to find the frequencies of any runway? i am practicing with cessna 172
I want to know too :'(
Well I just did a google search on them. If it is a known airport it should have it on there :)
Well I just did a google search on them. If it is a known airport it should have it on there :)
That seems like something ATC should be able to provide in game and IRL.
The flight computer has this info is you program your approach correctly, theres loads of videos about how to do that.
My ISL usually lines it up with the runway and touches down at the right spot, but for some reason, the plane “crashes” anyway on touchdown. It veers to either the left or right and is uncontrollable. Have you had this issue?
I have not had this issue. Try removing autopilot right before touchdown and fly it manually from there. Make sure your rudder pedals are set as well so you can easily steer the aircraft on touchdown :)
Decivye Do you think not having the flaps down may have something to do with it?
@@adazinventionz3171 Well flaps are important and need to be set so make sure everything is set :)
What’s weird is the ILS works perfectly when I spawn in just as an approach. But when I do the traffics pattern, sometimes it completely goofs up, flies a couple thousand feet over the runway or crashes into the ground. Other times, the approach is perfect, and it flares up a little, but it doesn’t do it right and ends up probably damaging the landing gear. I think sometimes I’m coming in too fast (about 180-220 knots), without autothrottle.
@@adazinventionz3171 When you do traffic patterns be sure to follow regular autopilot heading set it manually yourself. Only turn on the ILS or LOC when you are on the turn to base. Dont worry too much I will have more videos on it so you can check for reference! :)
How do you reverse thrust once you touch down? I know you have to pull the the thrust lever up in the cockpit. But is there a key binding for it in the keyboard? I cant seem to find it.
f2
@@pyromaniaccahzen1208 thanks
I had mine set to 2 :)
My plane just does not approach the airport. I dont know what I am doing wrong.
Try to watch the video again make sure you follow everything I do. Feel free to use the same airport as I did as well as practice. I will be making more videos and I will redo the procedure :)
Are you able to do an ILS for dummies video? Go through the basics for approach and alike? Asking for a friend.
We will recap on thee next video :)
Do you or anyone here often got the MSFS freezes or not responding? I have this issue since I downloaded its contents, until I play the game now.
The Windows Task Manager shows that flightsimulator.exe is not responding, so I have to click End Task and relaunch the sim again.
When it happens? It happens randomly, but always does.
I'm still using i7 4770K, 16GB RAM, RTX 2060 Super, SSD, updated Windows 10 version 2004, updated Nvidia graphic driver.
And also, the audio sounds stuttering/lagging.
Any solution? Thanks before..
Yes game crashes on me quite a number of times too no solution yet waiting on microsoft
Decivye thanks for your response.. So does it mean if I got the sim reinstall, it won’t be solved? Because I am reconsidering it right now, whether do the uninstall and then reinstall, or not..
@@deka1408 I think it will be the same outcome the game is just sooo big and there are still many issues that microsoft needs to fix
There's a controversy with the physics flying the A320, do you think it needs a patch?
Well im stuck using a keyboard at this point in time so I mean the controls feel off to me naturally. When I get my hands on a proper flight stick then I will be able to tell if something still feels off but, as of now I can't really tell buddy. :)
it's hard for me to get the Frequencies for the runways (ILS) There's easiest way to get them?
All I do really is google search
there is another way to get it from the CDU itself.
The flight computer has all the info you need once you program your approach
Can you make a video that you will explain irl landing im trying for hours and i cant find a way to make it work im really pissed off
Don't worry I will be making full flight videos ill explain how I do my landings on the sim :)
Can you tell me the steps plz I've tried setting the approach frequency then turning approach on am i doing something wrong?
Im a beginner and I would like to setup the ILS for a landing in Frankfurt for rwy 25C. The frequency is 111.55 i think. My problem is that i cant set this frequency because im stuck at 110.XX. I can only adjust it within the 110.XX frequences. Do you know what im doing wrong here?
Play around with the nob a bit until it adjusts from 110 to 111. I had to move around the nob to find the point where it adjusted the first 3 digits. :)
@@Decivye Thanks, got it
@@PaulePanterchen Youre welcome :)
@@Decivye Sometimes my plane is flying over the runway even though the approach mode is guiding me to the runway :(
@@PaulePanterchen Strange how it does that. I have had it happen to me a few times before just do a go around and repeat the process :)
Can you do one for the 787 Dreamliner?
Maybe some time down the line I will :) I did not get the deluxe edition so I dont have access to the 787 at this point in time.
Decivye thanks for the input bro! I’m sure the 787 should be similar. Just have to plug in the correct frequency :) thanks for the great work!
@@TheSwamz Thank you for the support! Have a good one!
Where is the reverse throttle activation button?
I set mine to 2. I think default is F2
Awesome video. In FSX and prior, you used to have to put AP into NAV mode for approach and dial in the runway ILS frequency into NAV 1 radio. Do you not have to do that any more? I thought surely you would with large airports with multiple runways.
He does it at 8:50
You do still need to do it time stamp by Andy Sledge below :)
@@Decivye I broke the cardinal rule of UA-cam commenting. Sorry guys. I had the video going beside my FS2020 window and must have missed it. Thank you!
@@GeekTherapyRadio Haha all good thanks again for the support :)
My autopilot never works its white and it doesn't wanna work and and I can't find an answer how to solve it
have you tried reinstalling the game?
@@Decivye no but I'll give it a try. It takes like 12 hours to install.
I turn on Loc and I get no automatic approach mode, if I force it usually nose dives me into my nearest ocean, could anyone give me a short watered down version of the steps I take to automatically line up with runway from a distance and autopilot down? (Trying to fly with a keyboard by the way)
I got you! I am flying with a keyboard as well so I know how you feel.
1. Do a quick google search on circuit patterns for flying
2. study the parts of the circuit so you can understand these next steps
4. Make sure you have the correct ILS frequency of the runway you are trying to lang on (double check this always)
3. Loc should be activated once you have completed your turn to base
4. Keep flying and once you are perpendicular to the final leg of the circuit pattern ,autopilot should capture the GS and take you from there. (In my case it automatically switched to APP)
Dont worry too much about it tho I will have more videos of full flights coming up and I will explain my landing process yet again
Wait step 2-4-4? Lol
Also, how would I edit ILS Freq (A320)
@@M40 lol sorry about that its just step 1 2 3 4 then 5 haha! Its on the video how I set up the frequency before take off
Say I was to not be lined up with the runway and be on the side of it, If I pressed Loc/Appr would it turn me around properly and try to line me up automatically?
What is the reverse thrust key on keyboard
I set mine to 2. Sorry but I dont remember the default one. You should check out the settings and set all of the important controls to your keyboard :)
It’s F2
Thanks
@@som9929 Happy flying! :)
I still dont really understand when to turn the Localizer mode on. How do i know when to turn it on?
Watch my ILS recap video I explain it there again in greater detail :)
@@Decivye I will do that. Thank you sooooo much for your videos! Your channel is a gift for all amateur players like me. I decided to train with 1 airliner and i picked the a320 neo. And what happens? Someone like you makes Tutorials for that exact plane. You got a sub man and a like on every video from me. Greetings from germany
@@VideoMixer1000 Much love to my viewers from Germany welcome to the colony! Your english is fine, have a great day and happy flying!
@@Decivye well didnt really help me... you said you activate the loc mode when you are perpendicular to the final. Does that mean in a 90 degree angle? 1] if yes than i dont understand.. I flew from Hamburg to Bremen and was nearly heading straight to the runway the whole flight. So i didnt fly in a pattern with base leg etc. Is there a distance or sth like that, when i activate it? 2] if perpendicular to the final means that you are already looking in the right direction than i still dont understand when to activate it... There has to be a distance or a radius around the airport or sth like that... Sorry im confused.
@@VideoMixer1000 Do you see the pink diamonds on the artificial horizon panel? I am trying to figure out why it is not working for you. If you have a twitter account you can send me a DM of a screen shot of your final approach so I can take a look at the configuration of your landing. Or if you dont have a twitter account join my discord server and post it there :)
When I turn ON loc mode it does nothing...
try watching my latest video I recap the ILS landing you might have just missed a step or 2
@@Decivye Cool thanks
@@jackwayne1626 no worries
I have a question, what happens if you leave autopilot on for the landing?
I actually did try this back in FSX and it landed just fine little rough tho. I have yet to try it in the new flight sim. Maybe I will do it in one of my videos :)
I did do this tday. The landing was a bit rough ig but acceptable. All u have to do is to idle out the throttles at flare altitude while landing. Tho they do need to work on the accuracy, cause smtimes the APPR doesnt center on the centerline. So u might need to take manual control.
@@arpanmohanty2221 Thanks for sharing this info! :)
@@Decivye No problem :)
This didn't help me at all. My autopilot is not holding altitude and I can't get ILS to show up at all...
Sorry it didn't work out for you. It has been working out fine for myself and a few hours. I will make a separate video explaining basic autopilot and how to use it probably in the next episode. Thank you for your feedback I really appreciate it. :)
@@Decivye I'm mad at myself for not grasping the basics of the autopilot and ILS (and comms), not at you - apologies if my first comment came out wrong. If you could do a video on a full flight, with manual comms, requesting ILS runways, using autopilot, landing, etc. I'd be super grateful. Please treat me like a 2 year old (I'm many decades older) and explain everything along the way. :-)
@@morid1n Hey no worries at all! I will be doing more videos on this with full flights included so be sure to keep watch on it. On my next video I will do my best to explain the basics. I will have it up hopefully within 24 hours. Have a good one! :)
ILS is not available on every runway, you have to check it. If you are near the airport and there is no ILS showing in purple at the rose, you have the wrong frequency or no ILS is there. Easiest way for me was to start from an ILS runway, short after the takeoff my rose shows all ILS information and the correct runway. And don’t forget to switch the ILS information on.

@@somakaro2156 thank you for sharing :)
This is not correct. Need to do it in FMS.
Thank you for letting me know I appreciate it :)
Fms?
@@JerDog1984 After some research I found this, very interesting, I didn't know either. Here, have a look : safetyfirst.airbus.com/safely-flying-non-precision-instrument-approaches/

dang
Link was wrong, now it is right.
cant find a video on how to fly a route in the a320. i created thhe flightplan in the worldmap. how do i let the autopilot fly it now? abosulte beginner to thhe a320
I do remember doing this back in the old FSX however, this was years back and I honestly can't remember it from the top of my head. I will brush up on this and probably make a video about it somewhere down the line. Thank you for the question tho, it helped me realize what I need to work on :)
@@Decivye looking forward to the Video:) pure explain the stuff pretty good
@@Matthew.1994 Awesome! Stay tuned :)
Autobreak!
Yes I am aware hehehe moving forward it shall be set
Your Pretty strange real life pilot
Normally real life pilots know they way around the panel controls flight controls etc an speak in codes even on sims but your freaking lost. Otherwise nice 👍
Thank you. By the way when I say I am a private pilot it means I got my private pilots license, that being said I have han 0 formal training on the airbus a320 which means everything I know about it is self taught so, I will have flaws.
Sorry guy, but you don't know what your doing here...
Thats cool I wonder why you clicked on my video? Oh yeah cuz you dont know what youre doing -.- Have a great day :)
@@Decivye No I clicked on your video to see if you had any other little tricks, but all you did was confuse me and fly the plane incorrectly.. If you wanna learn, look to a real A320 Pilot.. @320SimPilot
I can perform the ILS over and over again and I have not had any issues. This is a beginners guide for flight sim not how to fly an ILS in real life. My simple method has worked for a lot of other people. If it confused you and messed your flying up, that is your own problem. I do not need to go to other peoples website to learn more about ILS approaches as I can do them on my own with no issues.
@@Decivye It was more that you were flying the plane manually, changing heading, Altitude and manually controlling speed; when that is not how a real A320 Pilot would fly it.
@@polomadmo Sigh.... please do more research when trying to argue with me cuz it really feels like talking to a wall. A pilot has all rights to take manual control of the aircraft and there are airline procedures that require you to take manual control as soon as you have visual on the runway.
Bloody awful intro. Great video!
Hehe sorry you didn't like the intro pokemon is near and dear to my heart even as an adult. With this channel being the focus on video games in general the intro will be here to stay for the time being. Since the release of the new Microsoft Flight Simulator it will now be a staple in the channel. Glad you enjoyed it tho and I appreciate the feedback :)
Decivye oh don’t worry about it! I adore Pokémon red on gameboy still to this day. I only said it because my volume was loud and it made me jump so it was kinda reactionary 🤣
@@HostadDigitalMedia Oh I see haha sorry about that!
