Thank you for the tutorial! For me the bird is too barebones at this stage. And I am sceptical about early access (seen too much projects stall after EA release). So I will wait and see and hop in when she is more developed.
A brief scroll through our comments suggests a mixed but similar tone. For those wanting a turn key with full functionality, this isn’t there yet, as illustrated in our videos, and we make make no efforts to hide that fact. If owning a Concorde in XP 11 is something you’ve been waiting for, as we have, we are trying very hard to produce helpful (and timely) videos so the quick adopters can enjoy it from day one. Thanks for your feedback, and we will continue to share the development of this product.
Am I correct that you can assign a key to the G1000 nav button, thus becoming an analog for Concorde's INS Follow button and avoiding the need to see the unrealistic G1000 at all?
I suspect you can. I have a USB Garmin 430 that is mapped to all the buttons and knobs of that device. There should be mapping available for G1000 as well. Good idea!
@@FlightBrothersFT Following on from that, if you were to load a plan into the CIVA INS plugin, the hotkey would also tell the aircraft to follow that. Same functionality. That's what I used to do in the free Ghun Concorde :)
If you are at Mach 2, Concorde would climb as fuel burned off so a altitude hold wouldn’t be completed necessary. If you are trying to hold altitude, we would suggest that you’ve got the most current version of the aircraft, and that your fuel is properly trimmed. A minor power adjustment may also result in better altitude hold.
@@FlightBrothersFT okay thanks. because i do cruise climp but it only lasts for about 30 mins till it reaches 60,000 feet so i then have to hold altitude
can you help me i know this video is old but when i try to load my flight plan in everything is poerfect OR SO IT SEEMS because when i take it to the sky and check the G1000 it goes to some odd point 3000 NM away to go back to the airport and THEN go to my waypoints but when i check the waypoint entry nothing is there its inside the G1000 but i cant find a way to delete the point
Give our G1000 tutorial a look. You should be able to delete the waypoint, or clear the whole flight plan. I have a suspicion you will need to clear the whole thing when you start a new flight. th-cam.com/video/ajxi8MwHIE0/w-d-xo.html
Yes sir, pedals turn. You can probably see them working in my taxi out on the 'First Look' video we did. Very strange that it isn't working. Perhaps try reloading the aircraft? Could just be a bug. I had the mid-cabin door open for no reason yesterday during supercruise. GUI wouldn't close it, and I had to 'walk' back and click it to shut.
Hi I have followed your procedure to load the simbrief into the concorde fms but it doesn't load up only some other flight plans comes up I tried downloading the flight plan and exporting it into explane still no luck any ideas please?
Interesting issue. Here are just a few guesses for things to check. Is the plan you downloaded a .fms file, if it is another type it might not load. Is the file in the correct folder? I believe it should be xplane/resources/FMS plans or something like that. Good luck!
@@FlightBrothersFT right thanks for the reply after the download from simbrief it comes as fms and I tried putting it in xplane flight plans but as you said I will try resources and see what happens
Our pleasure. This was recorded with the early release. It’s our understanding that many new features have been added. Unfortunately, we haven’t had much time to enjoy the Concorde in its current state, but it looks fun
I'm not sure why it didn't work for you. Just a few ideas to try: Is the flight director on? Is the plan loaded correctly? Is it tracking a 'vectors,' which will not automatically move to the next waypoint? Also, there have been some updates since this video was released. I'm not certain how those updates have affected the NAV function.
Orbix I don’t have the computer in front of me, but there is a folder that holds the .pln files within XPlane. That is the folder you want the Simbrief files saved in. After that you should be able to load the flight plan on the G1000. Hope this helps, please let us know if you are able to resolve it, or not, and we can get back to you when we can provide more detailed information.
Program Files\X-Plane 11\Output\FMS plans The .fms files are the ones you are looking for. Download the flight plan in that format from Simbrief, copy and paste in the above folder and it should be "loadable" by the Nav systems. Cheers.
Man I love the Concorde, I flew it so much is fsx and p3d. And now I use it in xp with vr. I really wish the all of it was done but oh well. How did you get the g1000 there and can I see it in br ?
The G1000 has a hidden click region over the lower engine gauges on the front panel, and also a click region on the iPad mount on the captain's left window.
Start at 26:30 in this video and you will see us scroll to by the download section. Look for the xplane 11 format. Download and copy to your directory xplane/output/FMS plans
revenger681 it has come along. We have been a bit behind here at FBFT getting an updated video on this out. The full v1.1 is now out and includes full cold and dark and nav system updates. I believe it also has the functioning CIVA INS and textures have been upgraded.
@@FlightBrothersFT They still need to improve it , the Flight engineer textures are far to simplistic and some functionalities, like Glide, are missing!

Hi there, My Garmin will not power on. How do I power on the device? Everything is up and running.
Do you have a key or button assigned to the GPS, and is that one still off if you toggle it that way?
Is there a build in flight plan for the concord
No we don’t believe so. For a while on the XPlane.org forums, they had real world Concorde flight plans, but I’m not sure if they are still there.
can you do one with CIVA INS? the Garmin is way too unrealistic for me
That is a great idea, but you're going to be waiting awhile for us to get to it! Definitely worth doing though when we have time.
CIVA ins causes massive stutters which literally makes the plane unflyable :(
Am I correct that you can assign a key to the G1000 nav button, thus becoming an analog for Concorde's INS Follow button and avoiding the need to see the unrealistic G1000 at all?

@@FlightBrothersFT okay thanks. because i do cruise climp but it only lasts for about 30 mins till it reaches 60,000 feet so i then have to hold altitude
@@tjaviation61 does it keep oscillating, or change altitude? Air temperature “should” effect the altitude resulting in slight deviations as well.
@@FlightBrothersFT it does the deviating sometimes however it does sometimes go up and down if i accidentally hit the flight column
you prefer pitch Hold vs. max climb?
You can use either. When this was recorded, pitch hold was operational in the early release version.

Quick one please , how do you steer the plane on the ground please ? Yaw has no effect on the front wheel, I have to use toe brakes ... thanks !!
Interesting. Are you using joystick yaw? I am using rudder pedals, and I've had no issues.
I am using pedals mapped
To yaw. Is the wheel turning when you use your pedals please ?
Yes sir, pedals turn. You can probably see them working in my taxi out on the 'First Look' video we did. Very strange that it isn't working. Perhaps try reloading the aircraft? Could just be a bug.

how do you maintain the speed?
