A Beginners Guide to Autopilot, Radio Navigation and ILS in Microsoft Flight Simulator with the C172

- A beginners guide to instrument flight in Microsoft Flight Simulator using the Cessna C172 with the Garmin G1000 radio. We cover basic use of the autopilot, navigation via VOR radio beacons, cockpit CDI instrumentation, and finally an ILS approach (scuppered somewhat by a hilarious tree in the approach path).
Enjoy!

Being new at MSFS this guide is such a tremendous help. Your way to explain, your pace thru the video, it is just perfect for me. I understood it all and I have already tried it: works fantastic. ILS and VOR in the same 40mn only video is truly BRILLIANT.
Cheers :)
It wasnt a bug at the end, the main display isnt turned off by the avionics switches, and was powered by the emergency battery that you still left on
all very interesting and well explained thank you can't wait to get started on MSFS
Yeah, well done again, so thank you very much.
Thanks again!
I'm very new in MSFS and luckely for me it is just a sim. I like to fly the C172. As a novice :). I was looking at today's stage in Tour The France and the final was an airstrip with a slope of 18°. Airport Couchevelles LFLJ. I'm going to try this. Maybe breaking up the runway but I can do it over and over again :). By the way, great video's to learn
Another very instructive and stress free lesson. Thanks!
Very helpful thanks Jonathan
Happy to help!
5 minutes in and I've learnt why I'm messing up the VS already! Great video - subscribed and will watch the others
Awesome! Thank you!
Absolutely awesome tutorial. Thankyou!!!
Amazing explanation . Great¡¡ The unique good explanation on the web. pleas we all need you help keep doig it is so usefull. Brilliant and thank you.
Thoroughly enjoyed that and learned a lot
Great to hear. Thanks for the feedback.
Excellent . I will have to watch it a few times to absorb all the info. Hope you make more of these step by step tutorials.
Thankyou - I'll see what I can do. Any particular subject area that you're interested in ?
thankyou this is a great lesson
You're very welcome!
Very good, thank you. Being an old newbie, I find your videos very relaxing to watch and learn. It must be your calming voice and your knowledge! Is there anyway I can use the little navmap with an xbox? Or how do I get the radio frequencies for vor and ils? Hope you can help, thank you
Learned so much in this video! Thank you for all the hard work in putting these together!
Awesome video!!!
Thanks!!
I have yet to find any indavidual on You Tube, who can explain the different procedures, and functions, as well as you have done. You are to be commended. Thank you for your time.
An amazing tutorial, thanks a lot!
You're very welcome!
Great presentation. Thanks
Glad you enjoyed it!
Fantastic tutorial thank you
You're very welcome!
Thanks for the video. Learned a lot. Will you have a followup on the rest of the autopilot functions like the FD (Flight Director), FLC (FLC mode) and BC (Back Course Marker)? Cheers.
I'll try to remember :) I'm starting to realise I need to plan these videos a bit better - I usually just record off the cuff with no prep :)
Standby Battery keeping the PFD On.
Thank you this is really helpful. If I'm landing at an airport without ILS, littlenavmaps can give me a good idea from the altitude plot for when to start my descent, but is there anything that tells us what speed to descend at? Or is it a case of just doing some quick maths?
Quick maths :) at 1800ft per minute you can work on 3x height - so 30,000ft = 90 miles.
Why does heading mode use the magnetic compass? Is it switchable to a true course input?
I'm a noob to aircraft, but spent a lifetime on ships. Magnetic compasses are just a fallback. It's all about gyro or satellite true courses since all our voyage planning is done with true courses.
That's a really good question.
Hey! Great video. At the end, around 40 minutes, you shut everything down and determine that there's a bug in the software because the G1000 PFD doesn't turn off. Isn't that because you still have the standby battery (just above the master) on? Isn't that what the standby battery is for: messing with the avionics without draining the battery that starts the engine?
Yep :)
@@jonbeckett Thanks
Just wondering: is there an AP NAV only mode without the standard AP ALT combining?
You mean to only steer the aircraft? I don't think so. When you switch on the autopilot, by default I think it goes into roll and pitch hold - until you tell it to do anything like altitude hold, or to climb or descend.
@@jonbeckett thnx, that's what I thought so
Cape cod is it
