Have You Downloaded the *_FREE_* Booklet for the ICON A5? Check the Link in the Description! Thanks for Watching and Don't Forget to *_SUBSCRIBE_* and *_LIKE_* the Video to Show Me You Enjoyed the Video!
I was yanking away at that magneto wondering why the plane wouldn't start. and then i see you look up and behind at the fuel cut-off valve. That's what i was missing! Thanks for that.
great videos, thanks! I love flying the Icon A5, low and slow and the ability to land on lakes and rivers gives it everything I want in a flight sim aircraft!
Amazing work with the booklet, very nice. It's nice to see GA's in short explained but with logic and substance, so thanks again. Youre doing a great job!
Thanks! I enjoy making them!
Thank you... Im just learning how to fly the A% on MFS with Oculus... and didnt find the break ... LOL... I had to use my keyboard which I hated it... NOW after watching your video is gonna be so simple... THANKS!... cheers!
This was incredibly helpful! Going to watch the TBM next, and very much looking forward to your other MSFS videos.
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed!

Thanks for the video! I was wondering about the trim t/o setting: you mention zero and have the marker in the middle but there is a "t/o" marker at 3/4 down on the scale. Shouldn't that be the takeoff trim setting?
Say if you wanted to set the transponder code to 3751, how do you set it because I can only set thousands..
Hmm.. got a weird issue. The alternator annunciator stays lit and after a short period of flying the plane indeed powers off due to presumed dead battery.
I can’t see an alternator switch.. any ideas?
Edit: not sure why this is a thing but just used the MSFS default keybinfld Alt-a and it turned the alternator on. Problem solved!
I had a issue with the a5 while trying to take off. Could not get the parking brake to disengage like every other plane in mfs2020 it just wouldn’t work. So then I tried to manually do it in the cockpit and it would budge. Then went to the keyboard and still wouldn’t go. Finally gave up and shit down the pc. Hopefully it works next time??? Anyone else have similar issues??
Very, very helpful and complete. My A5 seems to always want to roll left pretty hard. Any idea why this one aircraft would give me problems like that? Thank you!
Mine rolls slightly to the right, but I think that is because of my flight stick calibration being off. I don't actually know otherwise
Hey what happened to the startup checklist for all the aircraft?
I thought you were going "all out" lol
I have the same flight simulator but on Xbox. How can I download that airplane? Thanks
I'm doing everything step by step and my engine won't start... It only gets up to 3000 RPM and then it turns off... WTF
Those Icons are dangerous wouldn't catch me in one, only cruise top speed is 85knts and that gives you very little wiggle room to avoid stalls, they've had allot of accidents and several people killed, they are fun for short-field takeoff but trying to take off on the water you better have a big lake, it takes forever to get off the water, stall horn blaring the whole time, no auto pilot have to hold the stick constantly, no ILS only GPS nav, if they improve the power and gave it better navigation he make it a lot better airplane.
second link not working bro
MEE TOO LIKE AND SUBBED, Well done, sir! This is exactly what I was looking for. 👌great videos, thanks! I love flying the Icon A5, low and slow and the ability to land on lakes and rivers gives it everything I want in a flight sim aircraft!
