AviationPro hi. Always enjoy your videos. Thanks for the tutorial. Was thinking of buying this.
Also enjoyed your Pmdg 777 tutorial which helped me get started with it easily
Thanks for the introduction in Kenya Wilson airport we have one q400 I'm conversant with Q 100,200,300.
Hey buddy can I ask, do you use a capture card? And if so what one do you use? Thanks ... love you’re videos btw ... can actually understand what you’re talking about all the time 😁😁😁😀
Fantastic video! One slight correction - the engine start is electric. The Q400 has starter/generator units which switch from a starter to a generator when the NH reaches 50% during start. This is why it is important to check the voltages prior to start. The reason for the bleed coming off prior to start is to minimise load on the APU and prioritise electric power generation for the start.
Thank you! Makes sense now! :)
I love me some Cold & Dark Startup tutorials: thanks for this!
You're welcome!
This is by far one of the best sim tutorials I have ever seen
Fantastic video. Thanks so much. I wish I had found your channel years ago.
Best a/c of all times in fsx/p3d. Love it!
Excellent, clear tutorial video which helped my rusty brain remember somethings I had forgotten when flying this bird, having recently acquired it for XP11 and having previously used the Majestic. Thanks very much.
You’re welcome!
Ive used so much time tyring to learn this bird, everytime just leaving it because I got frustrated. But ur tutorial really worked, superinformative and nice! Danke Schön, now for some Widerøe-flights :)
Excellent video. Thanks a lot!!
Thank you very much for this. Now I only have to read 30% of manual:)
Great video... thank you for sharing!
Thanks for watching! :)
As a no-pilot I was following the entire walking through procedure to learn what all this cockpit displays/monitos/knowbs and panels are builded for.
As a synthesizer-nerd I like to know the overall routing architecture of my machinery and the workflow and how I need to proceed and act and perform...
And as an ex-Event Manager and lector in a school for applied communications skills I like very much the VERY IMPORTANT procedures/protocols/checklists to ensure myself I'll perform all - what needs to be done to succeed - correctly. The same is for Emergency Surgical Units Procedures and Red Cross Interventions... all based on trainings, simulations etc... with no nonsense know how and savoir faire information.
I liked your entire explanation very much... about a field of expertise in which their is no much place and space for improvisation... only in high unusual conditioon like captain Sully landing his plane on the Hudson River and all similar high unusual situations/conditions where deep insight views are required every single moment of that crisis.
Well done : 👌👍👏👏👏
Thank you! :)
Wow, that is a complex airplane! Great job and very easy to follow! Thanks.
It sure is, thanks! :)
Airbus is more easier than this...
Excellent! Thank you
Great video. Looks like a great aircraft to fly.
Thanks! ;) Yes, it sure is :)
Simply, you are my Favorite UA-camr :) keep it up Evert
Thanks! ;)
Me too :)
This was awesome I now feel like I’m type rated on the Q400...funny enough the company I work for bought a few of these Austrian Q400s
Thank you so much! I was always struggling on the FMC
You're welcome!
Geweldige uitleg... bedankt!
Dankje!
Excellent Tutorial, I needed a refresher as I hadn't used this aircraft for quite a while, its surprising how much you forget.. lol, this is the best full Tutorial out there, even though its quite old now.. Many Thanks
Thank you! That is indeed handy... I need to watch it myself again too some day, haven't flown this one in ages haha :)
As always, outstanding work!
Thanks! :D We should try this shared cockpit sometime ;)
@@AviationPro Ooo yes we must and it has to be soon :D
Looking at commuters and trying to figure out what I want to fly, this is one interesting aircraft for sure.
It's a great aircraft :)
awesome walkthrough
Thanks!
Excellent tutorial video, i would like to know if theres a particular reason for the master caution light to sometimes come on during engine start. Thanks
Fantastic job. I'm going to memorize your procedure. In a previous video you mentioned you had split the sound so only ATC is heard on your headset. Please post a screen shot of Majestic's control panel, Sound tab on how you managed that. Keep up the great work.
Thank you! Haven't altered anything there really as far as I know. ATC through headset is something independent from this addon, that's done in vPilot for flying on VATSIM.
Nice video. Thanks for the tutorial, i'd like to suggest a 717 TDFi tutorial. ;)
Thanks! :) Don't have that one yet I'm afraid.
Hi, great video. Could you let us know which controls you are using and the setup, please?
The Com panel above the power quadrant is a standby COM1, the normal position is off unless needed if both ARCDUs fail.
Thanks, good to know! :)
Ground range lights are ok to go out during taxi. It won't take-off at flight idle don't worry 😉 the lights just tell you that the blade angle is in beta is all.
Thanks!
Thank you very much Michael! Glad you enjoyed this tutorial ;)
Thanks a lot.
You're welcome!
Will there be a tutorial on take off, climbing and descending for this aircraft? I think it's also a complex aircraft regarding those parts.
Maybe, but no promises :)
I'd love to see it too! 🙂
Can’t put it in cld cuz I’m my control panel there are no cld options under the “flight config” button
Doing all this literally made me forget the runway I was supposed to take of from
I believe the proper generic term for a gyroscope-based -- and optionally satellite-assisted -- position reference nav system would be "Inertial Navigation System"
That might be a fighterism, though.
I know in Airbus it's known as the Air Data Inertial Reference Unit (AIRU) - so I can see how using that would be understandable as well.
no pilot will ever have enough experience on any aircraft to not follow the checklists ;) good video, thanks for the tips!
You're welcome! :)
Hi, Nice video can you make a cold and dark video of carenado fa50 ex. bye
Thank you for fulfilling my request :)
You're welcome!
In the Weight and Balance section in the Control Panel, you should enter the value for Release Fuel or Block Fuel in the T/O FUEL box because the value you enter there will be the value of fuel loaded into the aircraft. Which you need to be MIN T/O + TAXI + RELEASE.
Yep, it's corrected later on in the video.
AviationPro sorry yes I should have deleted the comment after I saw that bit. Great video though. I just love the q400 so much fun to fly.
@@andrewbennett4638 No worries! Absolutely, I'm planning on taking it out for a flight more often now I'm getting to know it better :). Just love the engine sounds as well :)
AviationPro great! I just landed it in Edinburgh at OVC 001! Should have been a missed approach but I had a train to catch so wanted to get it down!
Thank you very much for this tutorial! Cleared up a lot of questions I had, particularly about the FMS programming. I gather from one of the comments that you are using FS2Crew? Is that where the checklists come from? Also, which ground services app are you using - looks pretty realistic.
You're welcome! I don't use FS2Crew, the checklists are from Majestic. I'm using GSX for ground services :)
hi sir ..is there any ready to fly botton or how to make it running engine when i load that aircraft
?
Thank god for FS2Crew!
Yeah, kinda need it in this aircraft ;)
How do you view the text of the fuel planning while the simulator is running?
Any optional button for automatic start up by co pilot?
just wondering what is the plugin for the control
35:30 Otherwise the windows will be totaly F*cked up.... haha
Was thinking the same 😂😂
How can I open the control panel?
Sweet, it has the Universal FMS. Is this X Plane or MS Flight Sim?
Is starting the dash 8 q400 same as dash 8 300?
Do you have the pmdg jetstream 41? If you do please make a tutorial on how to fly it.
Nope!
In mY Control Panel there is no option for cockpit state. All it shows is an option for Kgs or Lbs Why is that?
Does this addon still work with P3D 5.1 ?
Could you please make a Video on how to connect to shared cockpit... I have a lot of trouble in understanding the manual
Thank you
Never tried that in this one before yet to be honest!
@@AviationPro ok no problem. A friend of mine and myself want to fly shared cockpit but usually nothing works the first time, when I do something
Is this the Pro or Pilot version?
This is dash8 q400 pro or training or normal?
any idea when we'll see this aircraft in msfs? for now i'm making due with the ATR-72 600
No idea, I would definitely love to see this one in MSFS too :)
my control panel flight config just have change kg/to pounds and baro inch to milibars cant place id cold dark, very weird any hint?
You have the PILOT edition. You need the PRO edition to get different Aircraft states and the HUD. You can upgrade for £20 on Just Flight.
can I also plan my fuel correctly with sim brief???
Sure :)
My flight config doesn't give me the option for cockpit state it only gives me the unit's option. Suggestions?
Same here
Wouldn't you switch on the Red ACOL to show the aircraft is occupied/powered, rather than the Posn (NAV) lights?
Nope, anti collision lights indicate aircraft movement, so it’s turned on right before pushback. When you’re at an airport you can see this as a sign the aircraft is about to pushback :)
es gratis la pagina,gracias
So this is how *Richard Russell*
learned to steal and fly alaska airlines q400
What game is Dash?
Thank you for this. I have been flying the Q400 for a while and the video fills in some blanks for me. I find the aircraft to be very rear heavy and even if I have the bulk of the weight forward in the control panel, I still need a lot of forward pressure on the yoke to avoid going into a stall on takeoff. Is this a particular trait of the aircraft, or do you think I am doing something wrong?
You’re welcome! Yes it’s quite powerful on takeoff, so you will need quite a bit of forward pressure. Make sure you use reduced takeoff performance when the runway is long enough and when you’re not fully loaded. Also put the trim in the upper section of the white takeoff band. Other than that, the trim moves quite slowly, so it may take a while before you find a good trim setting :)
Cant open the doors
My control panel does not have the cockpit state options as yours, so cold and dark state is not an option to me even I downloaded again the software. Something I am missing?
It should be there..
@@AviationPro but it is not. Right part where you have all those options is empty.
@@juanrodriguezA320 : There are three (3) versions to the Dash8-Q400. You probably have the same version like me ( PILOT EDITION). Some of the features are missing. The one in this video might be the ' PRO EDITION ' or ' TRAINING '.
Juan, if you're still struggling to get the aircraft in a cold and dark state (I also don't have this option on the control panel) then try this from the FAQs on the Majestic Software website "If you want a Cold-and-Dark situation, bring the aircraft to cold and dark by switching off all AC and DC switches, then save the situation. The next time you load it, you will find the plane cold and dark." I hope this helps.
@@adesojiadebisi3477 never saw your answer until now. Thank you
Would help immensely if you do not move the mouse while you point at a particular system, I drifted away :)
I have a question, which is corect:
PILOT: SAS687 request start up and bushback or
PILOT: SAS687 request bushback and start up ????
[..]Push and start.
Thanks👍👍
It depends on the counrty. In germany you receive your Startup clearence with the IFR-clearence and you only request pushback.
Ouu i didn't know this 👍👍👍 really healpfull information, thanks👍
ua-cam.com/video/i7xB9A_H5Hk/v-deo.html
Game name please???
I think you were wrong there. The engines use battery for startup and not bleed air. Apu bleed air is primary used for air conditioning.
That's correct!
What is the name of the game
You sound like mentour aviation
Thank you Lord Jesus for providing us this video.
Wowwwww i took Boeing for granted.
:)
AS A320 PLESE!!!!
Planned for the future :)
True fact but this aircraft is a lot harder to fly then a normal jet
Gv
Your vision of yhe reserve fuel isn t right
Never have to watch startup tutorials when you play infinite flight. (1000iq)
Alrighty then
so slow....
Worse aircraft than boeing 737 max....
