Don’t know why other people are saying you’re speaking too fast, this is the first tutorial I’ve watched that doesn’t seem to assume I’m mentally impaired
Also my recommendation for anybody who’s learning the stuff for the first time, I highly recommend them before watching this that you go into your plane and just start reading the names on things and pushing buttons and seeing what happens. So when you go in and watch this video you will already have a puzzle pieces in your head and now you just have to put them together. That’s what helped me the best, good luck
I feel like I understand almost everything you explained but I know when I get in the air I'm going to be confused and have to watch this again. Playing with all these controls gets me all giddy. I'm new to this.
AMAZING! Please do more of these. The blend of doing things properly but also keeping things simple is so needed in this community in regards of tutorials.
Thank you so much for this!! Your tutorial is clear, concise, and well-paced, and I wish all tutorial videos were as good as this one! I didn't know where to start learning all those buttons before, but now the GPS makes a lot more sense to me. Thanks again!
I subscribed to you simply because of your quote "you're supposed to yell at the screen louder so I can hear you" Oh and your content is very in depth. Thank you sir.
Thanks for this! This video explained a lot of the things I found confusing about using the G1000 in FS2020. I've especially been struggling with figuring out how to tell it to go directly to a waypoint - lots of times when I start an approach it does the same silliness as happened in this video, so it's awesome to learn how to get around it.
FS2020 is a performance dud. Most all youtube previews on ground while taxiing or takeoff have stutters/jutters, even with only one monitor. Notice that most fanboy reviews are from the air at 2-5k AGL? Usually over water or forested, not over urban cities? There is a reason for this. Poor performance even on upper end machines like mine. i9 2080ti Corsair One i160.
@@DownTheRabbit-Hole shame to hear that’s your experience. Completely opposite to mine. Could it be better? having flown MSFS in various iterations since 1984, possibly, but as a simulation of flight it’s pretty darn good. Best I’ve ever seen since then.
Sir, two things. First you are heaven sent! Thank you for this amazing content. Second, could you do an in depth tutorial on the different navigation methods? I have a very hard time understanding and when to use them. I'm talking about LOC, VNAV, VOR (why are there 2 also), ADF, and so on. Thanks again for the content. It's so helpful
Well first, adf is a fairly old technology and is slowly being phased out. So I wouldn’t pay much attention to learning how to use it. Secondly, VNAV and LOC are not used to navigate. Now, localizers can be used to confirm your position on an ifr/victor route but they are not used for navigation over long distances. Finally, this channel does have a video on an entire VOR based ifr flight. If you haven’t watched it I suggest you do. But to summarize, VORs are radio based navigation aids that tell you your position based off of a direction on the compass. In order to navigate from VORs you need to set your NAV radio to the VOR radio frequency. I can go into more depth if you would like but I hope that answers your question!
oh finaly a very good tutorial on autopilot. I dont understand why Aviaton TH-cam isnt cashing in on new pilots. So many new gamers with 0 experience and soooo much questions. Good work mate
Just saving your video for watching it again and again for understanding all you say because I'm French but I can already say thank you very much for this video! It will be very helpful! Autopilot seems to be more complicated than in fsx... And sometimes, it does crazy thing with airliners
A very helpful video but I'm still having huge problems using the G1000 . A lot of the time I can't get it to accept any changes/adjustments in FPL- I think it's buggy.
Great video! I'd like to watch 2 or 3 more of these with details on other features, particularly the other autopilot features. I haven't used my PPL in 20 years - it's a strange new world! Thanks!
I've seen many tutorials on the Avionics on TH-cam and on Reddit. Almost nobody is talking about the importance of the TO/GA button. It positions the flight director at the proper pitch (usually 7-10°) for a takeoff, or if you have to go around after a missed approach. It is usually a button located on the side, or underneath (like in the SR22) the Throttle and it is a very important feature for take-off. Usually available on aircraft larger than the Cessna 172 (and separate Garmin GMC Autopilot unit), or the larger jets with the Pro Line 21 and even commercial airliners. Hope this helps!
Suggestion: It would be a lot easier to ffollow what you’re doing if you didn’t wave the mouse pointer round and around in circles all the time. Yes I know it helps people find it in a video clip but when you’re saying “click just here” and the pointer is moving all over the screen at warp speed it’s hard to learn what to do
"Up here at the tippy top" earned my subscription and a like. Your videos are hugely useful and massively entertaining! I'm sure you've heard it before, but If Ned Flanders was a flight instructor . . .
Thanks, I followed the first half fine... But after that you jumped about too much and started talking like you were talking to pilots who've used similar software. You also selected things so fast we couldn't see the mouse. And did things without explaining 'why' you would even bother to do that.
Thank you! Just started messing around with the DA62 last night. The G1000 is a very different animal than the G5000 in the Longitude that I've been using to practice!
Ridiculously usefull series of videos. Ridiculously fast presentation. Assumes a certain level of competence with sims in general and avionics in particular.
This was really useful, thanks, especially the parts about how this simulated version doesn't work quite the same as some others. In XPlane and some real ones I've seen, the topo mode is more colourful and shows red for land that is higher than you, but we don't seem to have that here, unless I am missing some option.
Subbed, love the video, some funny moments, i wasn't shouting at the screen loud enough i know. I feel like there's a lot to learn and you went in to great detail. I won't be ready for my first autopilot flight after watching this once, its going to take several goes, this is confusing as hell but thanks for the content!
Good video and nice explanation. It's interesting to see how well MSFS applied their autopilot. Of course they had to cut some corners compared to reality since you can see how it oscillates to get to a stabilizing point. That has to do by their 'rawer' algorithm (first order Euler derivative) compared to a higher order one because of the computing power that it takes.
So this was a good video. But 2 faults I think. Please take this as constructive criticism and not me being an A-hole. 1. you talk really really fast here. You lost me quite a bit because of how fast you are clicking through and talking. You were too quick shooting through all the different options and modes. 2. You went too deep too fast. I really wanted to understand how to use approach mode. I muddled my way through getting a course set, activating it, and getting autopilot to take over for the majority of the flight. But I don't understand approach mode. And while I get that you said that was a different tutorial, you threw a ton of info at me when I have no experience aside from clicking the stuff in flight and seeing what it does. I wonder if you would be willing to go through more of a beginner tutorial. I guess really more of this is what this does, but this is why you would use it and when you would use it. I'd really like to get better at controlling the plane from the instruments. Thanks for taking the time to make this. It was at least helpful on some level. Especially the altitude hold and baro calibrate, and speed control there. That was good info.
To short-circuit to JORDN, just highlight it with the FMS knobs and hit the MENU button. A menu will pop up and the first option is to activate that leg of the flight plan. No fiddly direct mode shenanigans required. It will even continue the approach from there, whereas, after direct mode gets you to the waypoint, you might be left holding the last heading.
A couple of things: According to DA62’s POH, AP only works above 90 kt. But when setting FLC to climb at 90 kt, the plane will not slow down to 90, only 110ish at lower altitudes. When it gets higher it will slow down to 90+ but never 90. So u can’t never get the best climb rate with AP. AP will not exceed 1200ish ft/even with VS set to +5000. Also I can not find the controls for turning on and off the Aux fuel pump in the setting. Nothing in fuel category will turn it on or off. Can u find it? Thanks. This is a really good tutorial. EDIT: you can edit System.cfg file to make Auto pilot work with lower speed when doing FLC. Change pitch limit to over 30 or something big. Default is 10
RubioGator yes in cockpit yes. I mean in settings where u can bind them to keys on keyboard or hotas. I can not find a single control in setting that could turn them on/off.
You just made my G1000 flying so so much better. Would you ever be willing to make a video about doing approaches ? I’m still confused on when I select an approach or am I supposed to at a certain point select the first way point of the approach at a certain time. I would love to see you make a video on that.
Great video, thank you. I am a casual simmer and swapped from FSX to MSFS2020 but find the autopilot different. Also, never flew FSX in virtual cockpit, always in 2d so easy to click buttons, one thing I fin annoying with MSFS2020.
Narration is a bit erratic, beginning to explain one function then switching to another function before completing the thought on the first. Then going back to conclude the initial explanation. Needs to be more focused, succinct and on topic to completion.
I said as much in a comment to his C172 G1000 tutorial. To be more focused / structured and not jump around so much. I think he's forgotten what it's like to be a complete noob at this. I do like his manner of speaking - except for maybe the "tippy top,'' expression. Are there kids watching this?
Hi, I've just gotten into flight simming and I had no idea what's going on. This is the first video I've watched of yours and was super informative! Could I request that you do a video explaining what the nav frequencies are and what vor and all those other terms that a layman probably won't know is? I'm sure that it would make flight simulator much more fun to get in to for newcomers
Honestly man the best thing you can do is get like a private pilot text book or pdf. Something like From The Ground Up will cover all those concepts that are replicated in the sim and it's what you actually use learning the concepts for real flying.
Is there a way to see the percentage of trim applied from inside the cockpit other than looking at the trim wheel? Does it show up anywhere on the G1000? It's super convenient with the outside view because you know how much trim you have applied, but that kind of breaks realism, I'd like to know what it is from inside.
You remind me of Matt Wagner and his tutorials for DCS. Very helpful video! Any chance you've learned enough about the King Air 350i avionics to make a video on that?
How disappointing is that? Winds aloft are always 3 knots too. Nothing close to realistic. I checked the actual winds aloft vs the game winds aloft once and the direction was wrong and velocity off by 100+ knots. The previous two flight sims had winds aloft and accurate surface winds. Not sure how they screwed that one up so bad.
Ah... That little Direct To trick to short cut the approach would have been handy to know earlier. I radio'd a tower and they assigned me a different runway than what I had set in the flight plan, so had to change my approach last minute. Of course the auto pilot wanted to swing the plane back around to the previous nav point and re-attempt approach.
I love the Wind button on PFD. Unfortunately its not yet implemented in the game. It always shows 224-225 degrees at 3KT. So its not correct if you using live weather. Which is a shame, as its a great feature.
Cannon Gaming in some aircraft, even if you are in APPR mode, it won’t descend on the glide slope until it has localizer movement. I would try different headings to intercept the loc I hope this helps. Otherwise I hope it’ll be fixed in an update with a bunch of other things
I was excited to find this video, as I have been looking for a guide exactly like this since FS2020 came out. But I am only 6:30 in and I am already very confused. Why do I want to set a nav frequency or a com frequency? Why does my compass show a purple arrow when yours shows a green arrow? What is that moving part in the middle of the green arrow on your compass that changed when you set the nav frequency? What the heck does the barometric pressure have to do with an autopilot system and why would I want to adjust that? The longer I watch the more questions I have. This video is making my flight sim newbie ass even more confused. :(
So comm frequencies are the frequencies used to talk to other planes and ATC. If you are playing regular FS, you can just the built in ATC system to autotune these. NAV frequencies are those used by VOR stations, a special kind of navigation method. Mine shows a purple arrow since I am using the GPS to tell the autopilot where to go, you can see this on the display as either green VOR1 VOR2 or Purple GPS. The barometric pressure is a reference pressure so that your alitmeter will show you being at the correct altitude above seat level. If the autopilot does not have the right altimeter setting, it won't be at the correct true altitude. Don't worry about being new, we all are :) Any other questions just ask.
Oh man I'm gonna have so many more questions when I have time watch the rest of this video. Thank you for your offer to answer them, I will be sure to post them! 😄And thanks for those answers so far. I still don't get the green/purple arrow over the compass. You said specifically to set a destination on the world map before loading into the plane. I did that, and that made the compass arrow purple like I expected. Then a little later, your arrow was green, and the middle segment of it was disconnected from the head and tail of the arrow. When you changed the nav frequency, the middle segment of that arrow moved! Why was your arrow green and what does that moving segment signify?
So different it seems like from FSX back in the day when we had the simple auto pilot it was quick and easy. But I sooo want to learn the auto pilot and the FMC on the other bigger airplanes
@@BoomerG21 Sadly my flying days are over. My health ain't as good as it was when I was younger I am 58 now. I was 17 when I soloed a 152. Still have my log book. I live through the game and enjoy flying that way
I've avoided learning anything more than the ADF ever since fs4. Nice thing about a sim, I can live in 1940 forever. I did try an autopilot once, but couldn't get the plane to go where I wanted, so back to stick, rudder and compass.
I love using the ADF and doing NDB tracking. They are so easy to use but so many pilots are intimidated by them. I still do at least one NDB approach when I go to recurrent training. It's fun making the instructor look for an airport with an NDB approach.
Remarkably clear tutorial on the G1000. You just earned a new subscriber. Here's a question I haven't seen an answer to... can I undock the screen for either the PFD or the MFD and move it over to my second monitor? I'm accustomed to doing that in FSX. It saves the squirrelly scrolling the panel back and forth, up and down.... All that makes my eyes cross. Thanks again for a great video.

You remind me of Matt Wagner and his tutorials for DCS. Very helpful video! Any chance you've learned enough about the King Air 350i avionics to make a video on that?
Yes, the wind selection, there to remind you how broken the live weather is when all you ever get for wind in NA is 3 knots at 225 😂
How disappointing is that? Winds aloft are always 3 knots too. Nothing close to realistic. I checked the actual winds aloft vs the game winds aloft once and the direction was wrong and velocity off by 100+ knots. The previous two flight sims had winds aloft and accurate surface winds. Not sure how they screwed that one up so bad.
Thanks for the video. You was great and this was very helpful
Ah... That little Direct To trick to short cut the approach would have been handy to know earlier. I radio'd a tower and they assigned me a different runway than what I had set in the flight plan, so had to change my approach last minute. Of course the auto pilot wanted to swing the plane back around to the previous nav point and re-attempt approach.
Thank god for you and your amazing training vids man :)
I love the Wind button on PFD. Unfortunately its not yet implemented in the game. It always shows 224-225 degrees at 3KT. So its not correct if you using live weather. Which is a shame, as its a great feature.
Great video thanks for sharing. Perhaps it would be good if you can explain it by topic, a bit complicated to catch up in one go, for amateur.
Sometimes the approach mode doesn't descend by itself and I have to redo the whole approach myself. Why is that?
Cannon Gaming in some aircraft, even if you are in APPR mode, it won’t descend on the glide slope until it has localizer movement. I would try different headings to intercept the loc I hope this helps. Otherwise I hope it’ll be fixed in an update with a bunch of other things
I was excited to find this video, as I have been looking for a guide exactly like this since FS2020 came out. But I am only 6:30 in and I am already very confused. Why do I want to set a nav frequency or a com frequency? Why does my compass show a purple arrow when yours shows a green arrow? What is that moving part in the middle of the green arrow on your compass that changed when you set the nav frequency? What the heck does the barometric pressure have to do with an autopilot system and why would I want to adjust that? The longer I watch the more questions I have. This video is making my flight sim newbie ass even more confused. :(
So comm frequencies are the frequencies used to talk to other planes and ATC. If you are playing regular FS, you can just the built in ATC system to autotune these. NAV frequencies are those used by VOR stations, a special kind of navigation method. Mine shows a purple arrow since I am using the GPS to tell the autopilot where to go, you can see this on the display as either green VOR1 VOR2 or Purple GPS. The barometric pressure is a reference pressure so that your alitmeter will show you being at the correct altitude above seat level. If the autopilot does not have the right altimeter setting, it won't be at the correct true altitude. Don't worry about being new, we all are :) Any other questions just ask.
Oh man I'm gonna have so many more questions when I have time watch the rest of this video. Thank you for your offer to answer them, I will be sure to post them! 😄And thanks for those answers so far. I still don't get the green/purple arrow over the compass. You said specifically to set a destination on the world map before loading into the plane. I did that, and that made the compass arrow purple like I expected. Then a little later, your arrow was green, and the middle segment of it was disconnected from the head and tail of the arrow. When you changed the nav frequency, the middle segment of that arrow moved! Why was your arrow green and what does that moving segment signify?
Great tutorial .Thanks for posting .
Congratulations, you have successfully jailbroken your new DA62 aircraft. :)
Do you have a video of you doing an ILS Landing with the G1000?
THANK YOU. This thing has been tough to understand.
So different it seems like from FSX back in the day when we had the simple auto pilot it was quick and easy. But I sooo want to learn the auto pilot and the FMC on the other bigger airplanes
TmanGamingX agreed. I’m far from a professional pilot so I have a ton to still learn but just learning how use flight computers is HUGE
@@BoomerG21 Sadly my flying days are over. My health ain't as good as it was when I was younger I am 58 now. I was 17 when I soloed a 152. Still have my log book. I live through the game and enjoy flying that way
Thanks, great content
Best video explaining things on the net. Thank you!
I like your voice, it is joyful and fun
I've avoided learning anything more than the ADF ever since fs4. Nice thing about a sim, I can live in 1940 forever. I did try an autopilot once, but couldn't get the plane to go where I wanted, so back to stick, rudder and compass.
d e austin autopilot in FS2020 is bugged. Doesn’t work well at all.
I love using the ADF and doing NDB tracking. They are so easy to use but so many pilots are intimidated by them. I still do at least one NDB approach when I go to recurrent training. It's fun making the instructor look for an airport with an NDB approach.
Remarkably clear tutorial on the G1000. You just earned a new subscriber. Here's a question I haven't seen an answer to... can I undock the screen for either the PFD or the MFD and move it over to my second monitor? I'm accustomed to doing that in FSX. It saves the squirrelly scrolling the panel back and forth, up and down.... All that makes my eyes cross. Thanks again for a great video.
Hold right alt key on the keyboard and click the display you want to pop out :)
try turning these knobs in flight with a bit of turbulance and a head tracker on!
Indeed ,,thats whyXP11 is far superior as one can pop these things out too another static monitor whilst in flight
@@g4kfjve7kfj34 you can pop out all the instruments in MSFS 2020 as well, and have them on separate monitors.
@@xDarkStylo Please direct us too the instructions many thanks ??
@@g4kfjve7kfj34 Hold left ALT and left click on the instrument, and it will pop out to a separate window
@@xDarkStylo THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS INFO as eyes not too good this will help , I will pass on this very useful tip
