I really do appreciate all the work you put into these vids i have learned how to do full flights on the a320,PMDG 737 and 747 (Now the A330 to ) without having to watch 1-2 hour videos keep up the good work
Very helpful as always, can you by anychance tell me why the ils frequencies in the radnav on the mcdu are not entered automatically even though i used the world map to create my flight plan and how do I enter them my self and in what format. Many thanks 🙂
They’re usually auto entered if you select an arrival runway. To enter manually just type the frequency in the scratch pad (110.50 for example) then click the soft key next to the ILS box.
Is anyone else having the problem that with everything set up correctly and following this guide to the letter. The plane just does not follow the flight plan? When on nav it just keeps going in a straight line, and at some point on the FMS it just said HDG and NAV at the same time, but I could just not get it to follow the flight plan. I cant find any fixes on google.
As a casual player it sucks you can't use the built in VFR tool from World Map like in A320N, where you just enter flight plan and AP sticks to it, this is basically just a bigger version of it and it sucks you can't do longer flights without doing some fiddling.
Hi i have problems with this aircraft 1 when i Takeoff the throttles go to idle and i can't move the throttle anymore 2 the rudder goes crazy every time I'm in the air help please
This is usually called by the pilot monitoring. I don’t think any MSFS airplane comes with this by default. You can see the speeds marked on the PFD tape.
Do you know how to properly configure a saitek throttle on this so it doesn’t reverse when at the idle spot? I can’t seem to figure it out using the calibration tab
@@DreamBloxDev I don’t 😂 all Airbus models 318 to 340 fly the same, if you can fly one you can fly them all. There are usually just small variations between addons in terms of the EFBs and quality / accuracy of the simulation itself.

It seems to be an inconsistent bug - it may not happen to you. Even in this case, it reverted to managed sometime during cruise / before descent. If it does happen my suggestion is to work around it as shown. Hopefully further updates to the plane will reduce the chances of this happening.
For some reasons, my autopilot is very inconsistent. Sometimes it works, sometimes it does not. By that I mean I cannot even activate/engage the autopilot.

Yeah, I don’t like that either. Same as when airplanes don’t accept world map flight plans. The sim has perfectly good built in tools, why not use them?
If they’re off/not working - assuming the plane is actually powered on, check that everything (sim and plane) is up to date. If they’re just dark, the brightness controls are located to the left of the PFD, and on the top left of the pedestal for the ECAM.

Ok
Im using this mod but Why when i take off the air speed always drops suddenly in 1000ft eventhough the throttle is maximum when climbing
It will throttle back in the CLB detent to maintain a managed speed. You shouldn’t really be at full throttle at any point.
In real world you don’t climb at full throttle
