I plan on it :)

Do you have YourControls installed, if so remove that. Otherwise I would recommend contacting support if you are certain that FSLabs is the cause. In the beginning I also had crashes, and then I removed YourControls and something else and it worked.

@paulmooney1655 do you have an approach in mind?

What about LPMA RNAVZ05 via PILIM. Not a particularly good example... I'm sure you know of better. Much as I love the Fenix I do find I get SPD ERROR AT messages on most approaches and have to use speedbrakes for lengthy periods. How are you finding managed descents generally in the FSlabs?

@ I can already confirm, that if we purely compare both A321, FSLabs I think will do a better job. I haven’t had any issues so far, but I will admit I didn’t do anything over complicated either. My preference is to do an approach where we can do 1 to 1 comparison, so if you know of an approach where the fenix struggled for you, I can do that. Or I’ll find one at random.

@paulmooney1655 SO, I found an approach, that you can try in the fenix, if you like, and I will do it in the FSLabs. That is NZQN RNP Y approach. Either runway 05 or 23. Doesn't matter. Important is that it is a Y RNP approach.

OK, I'll try it

Its interesting you ask, because I think that is probably one of the biggest issue people have but don't realize. If you use the standard A321 profile, you run into issues if you use a livery with less passengers than simbrief uses. I made a simbrief profile for each livery, changing each weight and passenger count per livery.

So I’m assuming that you’ve just used a standard stock A321 simbrief profile and adjusted the weights for individual airframes. Did you use any perf factors? WTF/SL? IAE/CFM? For me I noticed the fuel flow still seems to be off unfortunately

@@AlexCzeremanski Good question, and I can give you the exact procedure I take with every livery I download, including for other aircraft. However this procedure in my opinion is a must for the FSLabs. 1. So when the FSLabs initially released, I downloaded all of the liveries that I knew I would use. 2. Then, I opened each fltsim.cfg file of each livery and made a new simbrief profile with it. 3. My simbrief base profile, was the standard A321 CEO. 4. If it was a livery with Sharklets, I put a Fuel Factor of M03 for that livery. 5. If the livery was CFM or IAE, I adjusted the Takeoff thrust (LBF) of that profile and also changed the engine name so that it looks nicer. 6. Then by opening the fltsim.cfg file of a livery, you can see all of the weights, max passengers, min runways etc. , and whether or not they are in KG or LBS. 7. So in Simbrief, I enter that exact data as per livery, and change the Plan Units in simbrief to either KG or LBS as per livery. 8. In the fltsim.cfg you can also see how many ACT tanks the livery had installed (0, 1, 2), and adjusted my MAX Fuel weight in each profile as well. Of course I however first loaded the aircraft, and checked how much fuel the FSLabs could carry per ACT tank, since Fenix also has slightly different weights. 10. And then I entered in the registration, Fin number, Selcal and Mode S number for the final touches. 11. I set Default Freight to AUTO for each livery. 12. I set Contingency and Reserve fuel to AUTO for each livery. Next thing that is important, whenever you load the aircraft, make sure your PERF factor on the A/C STATUS page in the FMGC is set to 0. And I believe that is it. I do have base profiles for each variant of the FSLabs. So I then start from there, copy the airframe, and adjust as needed per new livery.

@@BProduction222 Many thanks! The main thing I really struggle with in the FSLabs is the weird taxi behaviour. I've got two axis one for NWS and one for rudder as I have sperate ruddrer pedals. I must say that the taxi just feels so weird. The slightest stronger turn will make the aircraft turn like almost 90 degrees. I'm also quite experienced I've been flight simming since 2012 and also work IRL in aviation so the knowledge is there, but I'm not sure is that the way the inteded it to be or is it just user error?

@@AlexCzeremanski You are not the only one. There are a few people with the idea that taxiing the FSLabs is "weird". I also use a separate axis just for tiller, and it is highly recommended in the FSLabs, to have no curves in your calibration. So a linear path. This increases realism. Assuming you do have curves of course. Then to give you an insight, since I have 100s of hours of experience in Level D sims, FSLabs is closest to that. Since I know a lot of people will say the Fenix feels better, I will say this: It does, the Fenix does feel better, more responsive. The problem with that though, is that it's not realistic. The real airbus nose wheel has a big delay (to what a simmer is used to) when using the tiller. So if you can get used to the FSLabs tiller behavior, you will have no issues in the Level D and of course the real A320 either.

I'm sorry, I just realised it's 2020. Not much to do regarding FPS. Switch to 2024, more FPS and graphics is way better :D

@@vejas1I guess it’s Opposite Day then

@@srmj71 I don’t remember having to do anything special to get it to work.

@BProduction222 yeah, I can't get mine working. Just returns XXXX taf/metar n/a (where XXXX is the airport.)

If I feel like it, I will fly something in X-Plane. Since the A330 NEO recently released, perhaps I will fly it. Same with the FF 777v2. I always miss the Flight Dynamics of X-Plane

Thank you for the kind words! I’m not a certified pilot but my career is flight deck oriented :)

Yes, soon

@@kingcreed1128 There are a few reasons, but mostly it’s like my trademark, since my channel name also has 222.

​@@BProduction222Ahh makes sense

@@dannynguyen7978 No, and according to many different Bottleneck calculators, this is probably one of the best. I think I’m at less than 1% bottleneck. Now if it is actually true, I don’t know. I didn’t have any issues so far. The reason why having a mediocre cpu is good for me, is because I game in 4K, and gaming in 4K requires more GPU power than CPU power, therefore the CPU becomes less relevant. Now that doesn’t mean you can cheap out on the CPU though. Having a good CPU has other benefits. Now if I ever decide to upgrade to a 5090 (when it comes out), I will probably have to upgrade my CPU as well due to the higher performance of the 5090.

@@BProduction222 thank you so much for the reply! reasons being was because i have the same cpu as you do and been wanting to upgrade from an rtx 2070 super to a higher end gpu for a while now, due to its vram being a problem. thanks so much again for the explanation.

@@BProduction222 also, I've been having the same problem with you where the TCA Boeing yoke twitch alot when the y-axis is moved. I do not know if it is fully solved yet, but what I did was to delete the drivers of the yoke itself and reinstalled it, then the problems seemed to be gone for a few days now. crossed fingers tho!

@@dannynguyen7978No problem. If you use 4K, a 3090 is perfect with the 9700K because it has the perfect amount of VRAM and is also not too strong for the 9700K at 4K. If you have additional questions before you buy a new GPU, you can always ask. I’ve built many PCs in the past, including for my friends and family. :)

@@dannynguyen7978I will try that. Thanks for the tip

I appreciate the request, but I am just curious. The reason I am not too keen on making tutorials, is because there are always real world pilots who also make tutorials on their type rated aircraft, and I would assume that most people would rather watch their tutorials than someone who doesn't fly the real thing. My career may have to do with aircraft, but I would expect people to find real world pilots more credible. What do you think?

@BProduction222 Bro i search for these but these are not so detailed i think a Player who plays game like a pro like you make a Excellent video on this topic. I never request anyother youtuber to make a video but when i saw your couple of full videos than i decided you can make a Excellent videos in this tutorial field. But it's up to you!! Thanks 💝

@@moeezali8563 I really like making tutorials, and I think the proof is in my style of videos. I tend to like to explain things and what I do, however only on occasion. Because I am not a real world pilot, I don't think many people will agree with me doing a tutorial, and I totally understand. I think the best way to try and get as much info as possible from me is to watch my videos, even the ones of other sims. I once made a video from the FSLabs where I basically didn't cut anything out and showed my entire process. Feel free to check it out, since the procedure can apply to the Fenix as well. What I can also do is make a similar video just with the FENIX. An uncut video where I show everything I do, with a little explanation. It just won't be an official tutorial.

I just updated the Description with the link to my Reshade. Enjoy!

Runway track for 25 miles is pretty standard for most airports in the world. Unless terrain is in the way, then it will vary.

It’s included in the Toliss Airbus Aircraft. I’m not sure if it is only XP12, but it would be weird if it wasn’t available in XP11.

No, I keep forgetting that ChasePlane replay exists. If it works still. I don't know.

I have, and I am positively surprised about a few features coming. When it comes to the visuals, there are a few things not so nice, but overall I am pretty hyped.

Thank you!

I use the MFG Crosswind V3 with Hydraulic Damper.

Thank you

Hi

The problem with simulating a virtual first officer, is choosing which airline SOP you want to simulate. A reason why FS2Crew for the B737 NG has three SOPs. Especially regional airlines have many many different interpretations of the AOMs and make their own checklists based off of experience. Boeing, Bombardier and Embraer leave a lot of room for interpretation in their manuals, and allow the airlines to customize a few things. Something a program like FS2Crew can't simulate. A problem I had to face with the CRJ as well and FS2Crew. Very different SOPs from what I was used to, but not incorrect since it simulated a specific American regional airline.

I am using ShadeX and a custom lua script. But shadex has the most impact on the visuals.

Yes. Default weather and sky.

I appreciate it. Well, I don’t think anyone is a crazy as I am when it comes to dedication to realism 😄

@@BProduction222 I think you set the best example of realism and how to accomplished it. I would like one day to see a gate to gate step by step on this very aircraft went ever you have time, no rush. Just some level of understanding all of what you do. I seen others who do all the time but, it get too routing and missing important things that get skip just because they "it just a sim", but you go through and treated as important in every step. Good Job. 😃

At the time used PFPX. Not a program I would recommend anymore, because aerosoft stopped supporting it. I would now recommend simbrief.

@@BProduction222 Thank you for your answer. I have been using SimBrief since the beginning. But yours didn't look bad either so I wanted to ask about it

Make sure you actually load the NEO variant, and if you did, make sure in the Toliss menu, to select the amount of ACT tanks you would like. Increasing the amount of ACT tanks, increases the maximum amount of fuel.

Often, it is about learning the inconsistencies of each program, and then making the best out of the situation. I know for a fact, that certain aircraft don’t have perfect GSX integration, so I tend to only use the things that look nice. For example catering and boarding. Fueling really never works, unless the aircraft developer fully implements GSXs capabilities. Also getting to know the quirks of FS2Crew, will help you understand what kind of things you should avoid when mixing programs. For example if you were using GSX + FS2Crew + self loading cargo + Pushback Express and maybe more. It’s all about trying the limits

Thanks@@BProduction222

I use real checklists, from official sources, however remake them in word to avoid any logos or bad printing formats. docs.google.com/document/d/1yOXvREO6BCy2ArMWgOgaRHoAd6bE3xmk_SFGHo8nfFg/edit?usp=sharing Just note that I use A4 paper format. It may be different if you use 8.5" x 11".
