Toliss A321 X Plane 11 FMGC Setup with Real Airbus Pilot (Tutorial)
Вставка
- Опубліковано 2 сер 2024
- Join me as we setup the FMGC of the Airbus A321 using the MCDU. This is a full setup using a simple technique which is used by airline pilots all over the world.
PLEASE NOTE: On INIT A page (05:37) you can also press the select key against 'WIND' then 'INSERT' to insert the wind during the flight automatically. This will make the fuel and time predictions more accurate. You only need to do this once during the setup.
I am a real world Airbus pilot with thousand of hours flying the real aircraft and thought it would be fun to have a look at the new detailed simulation of the longest baby 'bus by Toliss. Hopefully you find this useful and it brings another perspective to your simulation. Any thoughts or comments are welcome!

love it keep going so lucky to have real pilots taking time to make our lives more real in the sim world .
Thank you for watching, I am glad they are useful!
@@320SimPilot At least you guys can still fly in the virtual world ... lol
Thank you so much for this detailed tutorial! I finally know how to use the A321 FMC. It was really tough for me as I'm used to using Boeing style FMC.
Thank you for your comment and for watching! It's great to hear its been useful in your journey onto the bus!
Thank you very much. Great more detailed insights i could learn from your tutorial. Yes, i did know most of it but the contexctual bits and pieces contrasted to real world background information is a great thing to have.
Stay safe, healthy and hopefully employed in those shaky times.
Great lesson. Thank you so much. Look forward to watching (and learning) from your entire A321 series. Appreciate the dedication/effort you have put into your videos. Kinda neat learning the Toliss A320 "How Tos" from an actual A321 pilot.
Thanks for watching and your kind words. Plenty more videos to come!
Super appreciate this tutorial because I have been wanting fly the 300 series Airbus aircraft for quite awhile, but was absolutely at a loss how to do this MCDU setup. * And to celebrate, I just bought the ToLiss A321.
Thank you very much for all of these tutorials, they have been extremely helpful. Never would have been flying the toliss like i do now without these videos.
Thank you very much, what a great tutorial this is going to help me so much. looking forward to more of your videos, I now feel a lot more confident in being able to set up and fly my Toliss A319, might even get the A321 now. please keep doing the tutorials
Really enjoy your videos so nice to have a real pilot showing us very informative thank you
Thank you so much! It's so helpful to see real procedures in toliss!
Thanks for watching and commenting, glad it was useful!
Thanks you! Been looking to learn the Airbus FMS/Controls. This has been a really helpful overview to get me on my way.
just reloaded xplane on my computer and bought the toliss A321.. omg was this helpful.. thank you!!
Excellent video - thank you for making time to share!
Excellent video. New but been flying the Zibo 737 and looking forward to the A321. Will be watching many more of your videos as you explain things very clearly.
Thanks for watching and your kind words Gerry, hopefully the videos can help you get to enjoy the bus!
Outstanding ! I learn so much please take each step slowly so we can absorbe the information. Great job.
Thank you for the valuable guide from a professional.
Excellent work. I am new to the world of X-Plane and I was looking for exactly such a guide.
Thank you for watching and your kind words, glad it helped!
Thank you so much! Really helpful. Plus can't get any better coming from a real pilot. I subscribed! Looking forward to more content.
Thank you for watching and subscribing, plenty of videos to come plus all the ones on the channel so far can hopefully help you!
@@320SimPilot amazing can't wait!
Keep up the great work love it😍
love it, keep going and just stopping by!!!
Thank you, will do!
👍 well done.
Great video, now we know where we are going and how to get there.
I needed this one!
Glad it was useful!
Amazing. Thank you very much.
Thank god I found this channel!
I am glad it was useful!
Great! Another 99 more replays for me to finally set up her mcdu! :-)
Ikr Boeing MCDU’s are so much easier
Excellent help, just what I needed. Got the Fenix A320 but didn’t know to program Airways and Waypoints. Information ℹ️ you provided should apply to FMS in A320, I’ll find out soon :)
Very helpfull and very clearly explaned, thank you.
Great video captain! Thanks!
You are most welcome!
Nice presentation of FMGC setup sequence. Thnx / Since this is a teaching tool, a slower and more narrated button selection/pressing would be helpful.
Amazing Video! You deserve more views
Thank you!
Thanks for a very concise tutorial Very helpful
Glad it was helpful!
Great video, thank you. One thing I struggle with is determine which is the active runway for my destination airport BEFORE I depart or whilst en-route. I fly offline but do use real weather in Xplane11. I try and use the Metars within avitab but this can be unreliable at times. Quiet often I tend to pick my preference and hope for the best. This seems to work out fine and I haven’t really faced any issues with flying an approach in the same direction of the wind. Maybe I’ve just been lucky. I just wondered if there were any tools that can be used to check the active runway for a destination airport. I’m surprised someone hasn’t created something already. SimBrief seems to suggest a destination runway when i create a plan which I tend to use but I’m not sure whether this is based on any meteorological science. Sorry for the long winded post ;)
AMAZING Thank you sooooooo much!! You earned a like and a sub :)
Thank you very much for sharing it
You are welcome, thanks for watching!
This really helped, i am transitioning from Zibo 737 to Airbus A320. It is a whole different FMS MCDU
I'm glad it worked for you,I hope it helps bring you many more Airbus flights to enjoy! Thanks for watching as always.
I just got the toliss 319 !!!! I am so happy with the results!
Mars doesn’t o the app fire alarm n system be set? Would any of u know how I can get the computer on the left?
Great explanation. I have one question. Is there a way to add a waypoint in the MCDU? Thanks.
Thank you very much for these clear and super structured video instruction.
In this context, I take the liberty of asking a subsidiary question:
The Toliss-FMC-popup-window is way too small for me. So far I haven't been able to enlarge it.
How did you manage to make this window bigger?
I would be very happy to receive your feedback.
Kindly regards
Re my last. . .after following your tutorial to the letter, although with different ADEP/ADES locations - at points 4:34 6:35 and 9:30 where the 'Save FPL' LSK key shows, when I do mine the Save FPL message is replaced by an EFOB figure. If you could point me in the right direction I'd appreciate it as I am unable to save any plans once created.
Is there any step to set the A32xneo MCDU plan as "active" or is is automatically activated as soon as deemed plausible?
Hi there. Very nice video. Thanks for the how too. But i have a question. I know how to use Simbrief and create flight plans and all. After i download the FMS file in Simbrief to my computer, where do i insert/import the file for the Tolis A321 so that it loads the flight plan info in the FMC so i don't have to manually type the stuff in? Tnx
Hello, is there a reason why you did not enter UP0.5 as a trim value? Cheers, Boris
What scenery are you using for such detail at EDI plse?
I might have missed this part, but what exactly is THS next to where you select the flaps? Is that your trim setting? Thanks in advance!
Can you explain how to install Toliss 321 in xplane 11 and how to update the FMS data using navigraph?
Thanks a Lot for that Video :)
You are welcome, more videos to come!
320 Sim Pilot Subscribed and Bell is on ;) :)
Does anyone know where I can find American Airlines, JetBlue, and Alaska Airlines liveries for the A321?
Great video Captain. One doubt: where can I find information pertaining to the runway´s slope? I noticed you did not place any number after flaps 2. Everytime I fly I also set the trim right after the flap. I am wrong?
Hi Fabio thanks for watching. For the runway slope often airlines will have this information included in their performance app or manuals. It should be in the charts too, I will have a look where next time! The number after flaps 2 is not required but you are very welcome to enter it. A lot of airlines do not use it. Hope this helps!
Where i can find a flight planner like yours pls?
What is the Trans on fplan
Is it same for a320?
Have you ever tried flying in VR mode with equipment like Oculus or something like that?
In the flight plan page when I go to click on my departure airport it says not allowed can you help?
Also do you need navigraph to program it properly
This could be if you have started with engines running or are moving? I have Navigraph but I think it is possible without it, but the route could be out of date that is all. Thanks for watching!
any idea why? when i go to INIT and when i try to press the arrow to move to different pages. but it's not responding.
Thanks for watching. You need to use the sideways arrows for changing from INIT A and INIT B, but this ONLY works when the engines are off. After startup you can only see INIT A. In this case go to FUEL PRED to see weights. Hope this helps!
Hello. Thank you so much for all this information. I have learned so much from you. Keep up the great work! My flight simulation experiences have been so much more realistic now that I’m learning so much. How do you fee this Toliss A321 handles compared to a real A321? Is it an accurate feel? Please let me know! Thanks!
Feel*
Thank you for these extremely helpful, and informative videos!!!! I am slowly becoming an Airbus Jedi Master lol. Some questions though:
1. I have not seen/missed entering winds. I always manually enter my climb, cruise, and descent winds as the REQUEST WIND seems to give incorrect results. Do you program the winds in IRL? Thanks!
2. Also, do you tweak cruise speed levels during the cruise phase to optimise the flight? Eg, speeding up to make up time if you have the extra fuel, climb/descend to optimal flight levels based on the progress page?
Sorry if you have explained this in a video I have not seen or watched carefully enough lol!
Glad you are enjoying the Airbus and the videos Roger, thanks for your kind words! For question 1) Entering them manually is a good idea as the ToLiss does not support it fully. 2) To adjust the cruise speeds I would increase or decrease the cost index which gives updated times and fuel predictions too. If you have specific times to meet or are running late this may be required!
@@320SimPilot Thank you for the reply! Much appreciated :)
thanks for the video...am looking to buy a good Airbus for XP11...would you recommend the Toliss or the FlightFactor product?
Hi, sadly I do not have the FlightFactor Airbus so I can not compare. I do very much like the ToLiss A321 though!
Hi, sir. Thanks a lot for Toliss 321, I'm learning it now. How did you manage to put Simbrief file into Avitab? Manualy? And how did you manage to put Metar into Avitab? I have Active Sky but it is not available on the Avitab. Thanks.
I’m glad they are useful! I download the SimBrief PDF then put it into the Avitab plugin folder in ‘charts’ folder. (X plane- resources- plug-ins- Avitab- Charts). It’s then available in Avitab charts! The metar loads automatically for me for each airport but I have Navigraph charts too. I use default X Plane weather, maybe that is why it works! Thanks for watching.
@@320SimPilot Ok, I understood. Just manually for Simbrief. I also understood that real weather from Xplane 11 does not loading from internet in Russia. Thanks. Could you tell something about late landing clearance. May be in some further videos)
I will admit I did skip some bits of the video but what do you do for winds. Do you have to enter every single individual cruise wind at each waypoint from the INIT A page or can you just use the average wind from the top of the flight plan for the first waypoint as it sends that wind data down the remaining waypoints?
Sadly this is more of a simulator limitation than how the real aeroplane works. So far I have just been using it once on INIT A during setup, the real aircraft can load the whole flight. I am not sure if the ToLiss updates this later, but if you do re select it during flight I have seen it add more wind info for the rest of the flight. I will investigate more and add it to a future video!
320 Sim Pilot ok thanks. I normally enter each waypoint on preflight just for higher accuracy but it does take a while and was aware real aircraft could get updates mid flight.
I know the STAR is often shown on the flight plan and planned runway but how do you know what type of approach you’ll get or if it is still that planned runway? I’m sure the ATIS on xplane is way too late but again I know aircraft in reality can download an ATIS. I didn’t know if some pilots select the STAR but leave the approach out until they get the ATIS or they put the runway in but no approach
Great video! Why did you leave the THS part in the MCDU blank? The toliss menu had that value provided
Thanks for watching! It is not required and depending on procedures you may not have to enter it. I hope this helps!
@@320SimPilot thank you!
Is there a reason to enter or not the take-off elevator trim setting on perf page?
I'm no expert, but I'm pretty sure it's just there as a reminder for the trim setting. I've seen a few airbus pilots not worry about inserting it into the perf page
Thank you for watching and great question. It is not required and I have not flown in an airline that requires it. Maybe some procedures do use it. It is either a reminder or (I believe) in some aeroplanes it can trigger a warning if it is incorrect compared to the ZFW CG. But I am not sure on that as I have never used it :)
I don't have insert in the bottom right any help ?
On which page is it missing for you? Thanks for watching!
My Align IRS or Insert button isn't showing up. Do you know why this might be happening?
Are your engines running already? If this is the case the ToLiss will already align for you.
Sorry for the late reply, you have to set the adirs knobs above to nav I believe
Hi, can u make a video explaining when to put flaps up in takeoff and the following procedures?
Thank you.
Hi Jorge, here is a video that might help: ua-cam.com/video/5-HfqDdV9dw/v-deo.html
Let me know if you'd like any more info!
Thank you very much, I will take a look
engine out 1620 whats is that number please is it height
It is the altitude at which the aircraft will change from SRS to CLB mode. The 520 underneath ENG OUT ACC is for engine failures on takeoff. I will cover this topic in another video soon!
How do I type in DCT WOODY?
On the f-plan main page you can just type it in as the next waypoint, insert it. Then it will say ‘discontinuity’. Press CLR then select the line of the discontinuity and it should link up.
Fantastic video although I am struggling to find Init B....
Thanks Brian! If your engines are already running you cannot access INIT B. Instead press ‘FUEL PRED’ and you can enter the weight there (although the ToLiss usually does that automatically once engines are running).
320 Sim Pilot Thank you so much for your response. What was confusing me was that you have to press Init and then the arrow key to get to Init B
I have a full sized 737-800 sim at home and am very familiar with Boeing systems. The A320 is very different!
Thankfully your first class videos are really helping me. Please keep up the excellent work. We are so fortunate to have people like you who contribute so much to the hobby.
Jeez I've been been flying the zibo 737 for so long, this seems super complicated
init b will not open up for me
Init B will not work after engine start, only Init A!
when it comes to turning the plane on i prefer the airbus, when it comes to the flight computer i prefer boeing, it's just easier to set up in my opinion
Why the disclaimer. As if I'm going to drive to the airport and do what.
Vids are great but i can never seem to finish them because your voice makes me want to sleep
I can understand! Thanks for the comment!
very much unclear, leaving lots of questions here
