it would be good if Beyondatc could monitor the vatsim system for active frequencies and drop out and drop in automatically, and if they could set the co-pilot voice to have no radio effect so it sounds like they are sat next to you
The problem I imagine would be BATC understanding Vatsim traffic as it won't be under the control of BATC's traffic injection. If they could work that out, then that would be perfect!
I think getting the program to identify other traffic on VATSIM as well as ATC coverage is key really to actually have a seamless integration with Vatsim, because otherwise it seems pointless just using Beyond ATC just for en-route coverage where there isn't much radio coms anyway.
tbh, I was using vatsim, but now I’ll use just beyondatc. It does the same thing, but all stations active, the quality is good, no more shitty microphones of others, or moody annoying or speed racing ATC’s. I dont see any point in mixing those two. I dont really need to have the feeling that there is someone alive on the other side when rhe immersion is actually better with this addon
Day 1. I’ve been a flight sim geek for 35 years. Sick to death of reading juvenile comments regarding wait times - no place for it in this sector. So happy it’s developing to such an extent in our lifetime 🥳👍
As a Greek, I have to say that the AI generated Greek accents are spot on. Beyond that, I want to use it to learn more about GA. I consider it very difficult to try to learn to fly visual on VATSIM and I have never done that. This software will help me master GA.
Day one for me, I want this! As someone who only flies on vatsim thus will be amazing for those blank spaces in the flight. Good video, answered everything I wanted to know!
It’s a definite day #1 purchase! I’ve been waiting a long time fo a product like this. Being able to use this in the « void » areas of vatsim is just fantastic. Great video Gavin…thanks!
I can’t wait for this, but I have still some questions : - Will oceanic ops be simulated with HF and everything ? - If we fly to China, will we talk in meters and not in feet ? - Can we communticate via CPDLC ?
@@BelugaXL_Captain I'm not sure. But they have gone to great lengths to insure accurateness with everything else even going as far as using the same ATIS voices we use in the US so I'd think they'd get that right if they're able to handle other types of procedures and different phraseologies around the world.
Day 1 for me. Can't wait. This is going to provide another level of realism that has long been on my wish list for decades! BATC team have already shown that they are focused and serious about providing a first class product with supporting customer service too.
Cant wait for this,, I would like to purchase it right now. We did trial sayintentionsATC tonight but i personally couldn't get it working for me and gave up however my friend got that working successfully and was pretty amazing however for the price structure of beyondATC with no subscription and the seemingly user friendly interface its got to be a purchase for us most definatly. I just want to fly my airbus from EGKK to LGSA using this amazing program it will make will make a huge immersive difference to my 4hr flight.
Haven't flown offline since the early FSX days. This is seriously impressive especially the voice quality. Getting away from that robotic style and more human side, and the fact that I'm sometimes constrained to flying on 'quieter' vatsim days this seems incredibly enticing. Great review Gavin, really insightful.
Same here, they should or must include ingamepanel for VR users.. if not it will be missing two big features 1: ingamepanel 2: traffic so lets hope the ingamepanel will be included day1!
The only reason I’ll buy this amazing product is because it’s the perfect training platform for VATSIM! As soon as I’m confident enough and ready, I’ll be mainly using VATSIM! Thanks for the video! 🙌
Think it will be a day#1 purchase and Ill continue with FSLTL to populate the airports and skies. However, if BATC is going to come in two parts Im wondering if they will charge for the 2nd part, negating the recently announced "reduced" price for what was the complete BATC basic package !!
This sounds like a great product. One thing I do think we have been missing is a good AI model matching programme which covers aircraft like Dash 8's ATR's 757's A330's. The ones we seem to have are very much A320's and 737's.
My only issue with BeyondATC is that I also have to use - and likely pay for annually - SimBrief in order for BeyondATC to work. I don't want to add another layer (SimBrief) just to be able to use BeyondATC.
Great news! I have noticed that the distortion they've added is a little too much now. It used to be too clean, but now it's kind of taking me out of the experience.
Wooow I am so happy now 🎉! Did not expect that this is possible (close and re-start BATC midflight) now. The developers never gave a clear answer to that… mostly they just ignored questions regarding to that.
will it be posible to ave a slider to adjust the "radio" effect and another one yes i love sliders to adjust the speech speed. i wait for this for manny years now . good day.
I currently use fs hud. And although being able to talk to them it's a big draw to me when not on vatsim. I like having AI traffic that is controlled more so i will wait for that feature to be added i think. I might give it ago prior but dont think it will replace fshud untill that feature for me
I like it, although recycling the squawk would be a problem if you were to flip back to Vatsim, depending on which station you tune to. They'll be expecting you on the old squawk.
Will definitely buy it, but for me the complete product was preferred despite 3 to 4 months later. Flying without traffic is lonely. BATC will not cooperate with FSLTL as the in-sim ATC does.
Looking good thanks Gav. Would like to see what happened if you had requested direct to PEVAL. Would it have cleared you direct. Also how about requesting a flight level change. It is it strictly sticking to your sim brief plan. And how will taxi instructions at default airports work as they don’t have the correct taxiway names. All things still to be discussed I guess.
Hi Gav good info, two questions, will this work with an outdated ARAC cycle i.e. the free simbrief option? and will FSLT injected traffic be picked up by the beyond ATC controllers?
Where did you get information the release is IMMINENT? Everything I've read says the initial release will be available when it's ready without a time period given.
During approach, all pilots on VATSIM really should be monitoring and announcing intentions on unicom. BATC Is great for cruise and descent etc, but communication on VATSIM is essential.
VATSIM compatibility would be great, however I'm not sure how it would work if you're flying on vatsim outside of an ATC controlled airspace as you're supposed to monitor and communicate on the Unicom frequency, so I can't see how interacting with unicom and Beyond ATC at the same time would work. Also I noticed when you reconnected to Beyond ATC the controller issued you with a potentially different squawk code to the one VATSIM may have given you.
@@Easyjetsimpilotno but I mean let’s say you’re on approach to an airport that isn’t covered by vatsim ATC, you’re going to have to be interacting with beyond ATC, whilst at the same time having to make announcements on Unicom. This is where I see the conflict.
@@007markymark007 I think common sense will need to prevail here. BATC will be great for en-route coverage. But when entering the approach to an airport, unicom calls are essential.
Is Beyond ATC suitable for VFR flights, for me assuming it is and European / UK coverage it would be a day 1 purchase, any update on a release date Gavin.
This is really interesting. I wonder if you could use FSLTL still to inject the traffic and let the sim's ATC take care of that until BATC releases the rest of the product. Sim's ATC is only activated for your own flight if you use the sim's planner to load the route before the flight, so it shouldn't mess up with the BATC if you don't do that. If FSLTL cannot be used at all for the traffic injection not sure if I'll purchase on release.
Yes you still can use FSLTL/AIG injection. It just has it's life of it's own, like it kind of is now anyway. BATC isn't bothered what else is being injected.
Hello, I'm really looking forward to use beyondATC soon, my question is: in case of beyondatc is fetching data from simbrief, and I'm using a free version of in can I modify SID/STAR to correspond correct one and not the outdated airac 2203 which simbrief uses by default?
this is exactly what I was hoping for, they can charge double for BeyondATC if they want, I'd happily pay it, I have already got my chatGPT account setup and waiting to go
On all the videos I've seen showcasing BATC there seems to be an echo or a small amount of reverb on the voices which obviously isn't realistic. I wonder if they are aware.
Couple of Questions spring to my mind with using this ATC to fill in gaps of Vatsim.. 1. Squawk Codes are different? Vatsim gives you a Squawk when they control you, and i note that when you went back onto BATC, it gace you a new Squawk? Would Vatsim not expect you to fly with the the code They gave you in case you flew into a Vatsim area further along the flight? 2. Does Vatsim require you to monitor Unicom when not under ATC control? if so how will that be done if your radio Freq is tuned to BATC? 3. If flying with BATC controlling you and say you are turning Final on RW Appr or even on 10 mile Final, and Vatsim controller comes online and wants you to contact him, how accurate will BATC in knowing what the correct RW in use will be? If the above questions are all do-able, then BATC here is my wallet!!
Does it work with time accellaration without turning off BATC? We can turn it off for accelerated part anyway... I think it will be the day one buy... It looks so promising!
Will it incorporate the unpredictability element ? What I mean by that is if weather conditions change, will the controllers change runway assignments or even Stars?
How does it work with SID alt restrictions, for example i live under one of the sids at egph and practically none of the aircraft stick to the 6000ft restriction. I'm assuming atc clears them higher, will beyond atc do something similar?
So if we buy the basic version of BeyondATC, we get the basic voices with a one and done purchase. My question is if we have the basic version and use FS traffic for injection will we have those basic voices for FS traffic or is that a premium feature?
I am a very old (80 years) real life pilot ( no longer flying but summing here in Kona Hawaii almost every day) I have been a flight simmer since 1983 (then on a Mac Classic). I have been elated since discovering the Beyond ATC project. Just tell me where and when to pay---i am in with and down with the program and the Premium voices! Whoopie !
Day one purchase for me, no doubt. Question, though, I don't do VATSIM, and I'm happy to just let it auto-respond and control the radios for me. I just would like to know if/how it will play with FSTL until the traffic injection is added?
Do we have to speak to atc ourselves? Or are there any pre-recorded voice that we can use just like how we do atc in MSFS? just click it and get response from beyond atc?
Hi! Great video! Without ai injection, will beyond atc be able to manage traffic separation, correct descent time/range and give me expected runway, airpressure in decent time etc? Now i use ms default atc and have to request altitude decrease to stay on descend profile and just hope i get the rest of the instruction in time to rush in the parameters in the pmdg fmc. Just to discover air traffic infront of me on short final and then go around instruction 200ft above ground.😊
Why wouldn’t you need to coordinate with nearby pilots? Even when using beyondatc you’d still need to coordinate with others and state your intentions on Unicom/CTAF when logged into vatsim
I just don't like to. I find it typically doesn't work that well because many pilots won't accurately report their position or will even land the opposite direction without talking at all! With beyond ATC I'm just going to completely disconnect from vatsim If there is no controller online.
@@DeadSTK1224 Many thanks for that. I'm definitely going to be a first day buyer of BATC and do all of my flying in VR. I was always expecting to have to get some form of VR-friendly note-taking addon, as lengthy clearances and my ageing memory would make them tough to readback, and that would also be useful for Vatsim, when I eventually dip my toes in. :) It looks like FSDESKTOP might be able to provide that also, as well as allowing for the use of the BATC interface. Result. \o/
Pretty great! The one thing I haven't found out yet is whether it knows all the SIDs and STARs so it can give instructions according to those instead of only being able to give heading vectors. That'll be the make-or-break for me probably.
Can you turn on or off the auto communication and auto tune during the flight? Say in in cruise has and want to FO to continue communicating while I step away from the pc
Hey Gavin hope you’re well. Were those AI generated copilot voices or recordings you made for the video? If Ai generated, what training to get system to speak in your voice (like on ground at LGAV) and reconnect to Brindisi ATC?
They were AI generated. The BATC guys asked if they could use my voice as one of the co-pilot voices and I said yes. Just for fun. I didnt have to do anything at all. Their tech created the voice just from the TH-cam videos. Amazing really.
Does the frequency list, when you restart BATC, contain contact points for the whole route or for just part of the journey? For example, if you get close to your destination on a long flight, and there is no Vatsim cover, would the BATC list include the approach and tower frequencies?
This "VATSIM-compatbility" is a game changer. I'll have a look at this!
it would be good if Beyondatc could monitor the vatsim system for active frequencies and drop out and drop in automatically, and if they could set the co-pilot voice to have no radio effect so it sounds like they are sat next to you
The pilot hears the copilot through the headset. It shouldn't sound like he's sitting next to you.
The problem I imagine would be BATC understanding Vatsim traffic as it won't be under the control of BATC's traffic injection. If they could work that out, then that would be perfect!
@@martinhsl68hw Only needs to identify Vatsim boundaries switching on and off when in a Vatsin active zone

Sounds good. Guessing you'd have to keep an eye on the Squawk code if switching between the two.
...and if VATSIM came back on at a later stage in the flight they would not see your original Squawk Code. Would that be a problem?

A mixture of FSLTL and FSTraffic.
On all the videos I've seen showcasing BATC there seems to be an echo or a small amount of reverb on the voices which obviously isn't realistic. I wonder if they are aware.
What about Unicom and all VATSIM protocols? Plus i don't think it's a good idea that swank change if it was given by a VATSIM controller at start.
Unicom can still be monitored on Com 2 and squawk code can be changed back to VATSIMs if/when ATC is online.
Couple of Questions spring to my mind with using this ATC to fill in gaps of Vatsim..

You would need to use reach respective sqwak code.
You can monitor unicom on Com 2.
BATC seemed to me, to be very good at getting the correct runway.

Will it incorporate the unpredictability element ? What I mean by that is if weather conditions change, will the controllers change runway assignments or even Stars?

ATIS and ATC talk awfully fast, can it be slowed down in the settings?
If you're using BATC with VATSIM, kind of makes traffic injection obsolete, doesn't it?

FSTraffic is not compatible with BATC as the two are seperate programs.
So i heard there is an option of not using your voice but answer with buttons. Did you already show that somewhere or how does it work?
can this program be installed on a network PC? Thanks
gave me an "interesting" vector into gibraltar tonight, but it was great switching to this instead of unicom

Never mind, just saw that there will not be. :(
FSDESKTOP Will alow you to controll any window/App within VR 👍
@@DeadSTK1224 Many thanks for that. I'm definitely going to be a first day buyer of BATC and do all of my flying in VR. I was always expecting to have to get some form of VR-friendly note-taking addon, as lengthy clearances and my ageing memory would make them tough to readback, and that would also be useful for Vatsim, when I eventually dip my toes in. :)
It looks like FSDESKTOP might be able to provide that also, as well as allowing for the use of the BATC interface. Result. \o/
Pretty great! The one thing I haven't found out yet is whether it knows all the SIDs and STARs so it can give instructions according to those instead of only being able to give heading vectors. That'll be the make-or-break for me probably.
Yes it knows all SIDS and STARS
@@FSLTL Thanks :)
Can i use this program without knowing how to talk to ATC at all?
Yes.
Can you turn on or off the auto communication and auto tune during the flight? Say in in cruise has and want to FO to continue communicating while I step away from the pc
Yes you can.
Hey Gavin hope you’re well. Were those AI generated copilot voices or recordings you made for the video? If Ai generated, what training to get system to speak in your voice (like on ground at LGAV) and reconnect to Brindisi ATC?
They were AI generated. The BATC guys asked if they could use my voice as one of the co-pilot voices and I said yes. Just for fun.
I didnt have to do anything at all. Their tech created the voice just from the TH-cam videos. Amazing really.
So that was just for you, or can any user have this AI feature to generate their own AI gen copilot responses? Thanks.
I think this is just something the guys at BATC have done (with my permission) and some other content creators as well.
So, will I be flying alone at first or is it a multiplayer environment like Vatsim?
Will I be able to use multi crew experience with beyond atc
I want it NOW!!!
Does the frequency list, when you restart BATC, contain contact points for the whole route or for just part of the journey? For example, if you get close to your destination on a long flight, and there is no Vatsim cover, would the BATC list include the approach and tower frequencies?
Yes it does.
Looks wonderful. Any word on an X-Plane version?
Please releade the atc part now and then later on the traffic part.
Were the voices shown on here the premium ones or the free built-in ones?
Premium.
