HotStart Challenger 650 Quick Start Guide | X-Plane

[@joeg4049]

Best CL650 startup vid on YT. No extras, no loud music, just great content. Thank you.

[@BluGames]

Glad i could help and thanks for watching!

[@claudemiropacheco]

Great video. Exactly what I was looking for. I don't want to run 30 minutes of test every flight. It's good enough for me.

[@BluGames]

Glad i could help

[@davidwilliams1825]

Beautiful presentation and rewording too. I now got the xp12 version and keep hearing "Nose door" each time I start the plane.😊

[@rigger41]

Exactly what I was looking for! Thanks Blu, that livery is outstanding

[@BluGames]

Very welcome

[@richardboll8763]

At 4:40...just FYI, you switched the expired nav-database that was in the ACTIVE slot with the new, current database which was in the SEC slot. However, you then switched them back in the next actions. That's why the ACTIVE DATA BASE was YELLOW, showing that it was expired. None of these actions is done to clear the flight plan. You want to make the ACTIVE DATA BASE slot is filled with the current nav-database dates and is not YELLOW. I've been flying the Collins FMS since 2006 in both the DA200 and the CL300/350. Same FMS as in the CL650. Again, just FYI.

[@pizza_parker9689]

if you dont have navigraph, is it normal to not have a secondary databse and only have a yellow active one?

[@thecorporatepilotdad]

The Challenger 650 looks so good. Hopefully, they bring this airplane to Microsoft Flight Simulator.

[@BluGames]

Maaaan that would great

[@SamAli2030]

Hope so too. The visuals , terrain, light and weather of FS2020 coupled with this plane would be a match made in heaven !

[@BluGames]

Oooooh yea man

[@juergenvollmer254]

I actually hope not, because some people switched to XP only because of this addon! :-)

[@jakes9893]

Just a tip, wait until you have ac power fully established before you arm the emergency lights. When you armed them there was actually an indicator that they were on. The reason I say this is because this will drain the battery very fast, and if you lose battery you would need to get a gpu. If you do this at the end of the flight and you have the aircraft respawn in its past state, your battery will die. To fix this you need to disarm the emergency lights with ac power on. In your case, to turn off and re arm the lights, you would turn on the apu gen, disarm, then re arm the lights. Hope this helps.

[@maltimoto]

Excellent video, everything you need to know for the first CL650 flight!

[@richardboll8763]

Just a trick that work in the real airplane and in Hot Start CL650, in the PERF INIT page, you can press the DEL key, take the DELETE from the scratch pad, place it in the FUEL field, and the FMS will automatically read the total fuel capacity sensed in the fuel tanks. Instead of saying MANUAL FUEL, the line will say SENSED FUEL.

[@BluGames]

This is GOLD thank you i didnt know that

[@amygoei937]

I wish x plane 12 was out. You guys make great videos! Keep up the good work!!

[@shadowdarkfall]

Amazing tutorial. I've had this plane for a while and never flow it cause I have no idea how to

[@BluGames]

Dang bro serious?? Lol

[@MXA057]

Gracias Señor ... you save me some many head akes ... great tutorial

[@BluGames]

Glad i could help

[@MrEufi]

Very great that the fl flightplan is loaded into the sec fpl as it is in real. Fslabs e.g. Loads it into the active one, which is actually wrong so nice job from hot start. Veeeery realistic plane!

[@BluGames]

Yea they seem to have thought of everything

[@xdiver01]

@Ryjano What? Fslabs Airbus is NOT wrong, that´s the way it is in the real Airbus, flightplan is loaded in Primary and YOU copy it to the Secondary. FSLabs modeled it correctly.

[@MrEufi]

@@xdiver01 as far as I know no

[@donrumsey]

Dude! Just bought the 650 earlier today! Great help!

[@BluGames]

Enjoy!!

[@XP72official]

Brilliant, this is how I want to setup and fly this plane. 😁

[@angeloguzman1426]

Hi, excellent video and instructions, thanks. But...if someone were inclined to only follow a quick start procedure then it is not worth spending the money on this excellent product. The joy of this product is its realistic procedural complexity...from the FBO to shutdown.

[@BluGames]

I agree

[@exiletsj2570]

Sometimes I just want to do a quick flight, you don’t have to use things to their full potential every time. Thanks for the guide.

[@davevanemmenes27]

I like it quick and dirty like this. I don't have enough time for flight simulation as it is. I love a quicky. Nice video

[@claudemiropacheco]

The reason I loved this video specifically is that I don't have 40 minutes to every time to just run tests. I want to get in the air in 15 minutes, and that was it.

[@chirondragon]

I just got the aircraft, the best on the market, haven't seen this level of realism ever not to mention the security installation, very well implemented, i enjoyed a lot your video, makes easier enough to get this and learn, plenty docs, but i would like very much to have the x-camera settings you have if you please be so kind, i appreciated, also i have joined your discord server. take care.

[@blaiseb1777]

Great video, didn’t even need to watch the tutorial, I just love watching your videos Keep it uo

[@TheTravellingNoob]

The ATS system should be in N1 TO, not speed on takeoff roll! Thanks for the tutorial!

[@karllaun2427]

Been a while for me, but on lineup, you should hit the TOGA button (on the thrust lever) to get the proper rotation pitch in the FD. If the simulation is accurate, you should also be able to partially advance the throttles and the ATS will take over to set takeoff power.

[@eddiemosch4653]

believe you are correct, also why the ATS was in Speed mode instead of N1 TO

[@PompaBorge]

Nice video! Thx. Have you got for every phase of the flight? I has a problem that I couldn't move the wheel. I guess I missed to do something at the very beginner, on the pre flight inspection.

[@BluGames]

Make sure u remove the “gear pin” from the nose gear.. your hydrolics will need to be on and you will need to open nose gear door.. this feature was added after my video

[@BluGames]

Also check out one of my previous challenger 650 livestreams . I do multiple full flights. That might help

[@PompaBorge]

@@BluGames thank you. I figure it out. I did properly but the wheel didn't like to get right. I had to call better pushback and then deactivate it. After that I made more than 15 flights without problem. Really beautiful plane

[@leifson68]

It would have been great if you could make a printable chklist of your quickstart guide.

[@glennkamers]

Great startup explanation.

[@petesachs1276]

Top alt is FL410 if you’re lite enough

[@John-by6jw]

Trim should be set to 5-6 for takeoff.

[@jans2381]

0:30 APU PWR FUEL "PUMP FAIL - SOV CLOSED" ... what should i do?

[@toddjbradshaw]

Same issue here. I have been stuck on the ground for hours with this problem.

[@toddjbradshaw]

Jan S - Not sure if this helps until the answer can be solved ideally, BUT if you are stuck like I was, simply go back into career mode and start with a new airframe that will reset everything and the issue is gone. With all the updates over the last couple days, maybe something got stuck. LOVE this plane. 😁

[@BluGames]

Sorry i didnt see this sooner. The only way i found to fix this is to start over fresh with a new airframe like todd said. I had the same issue on like my 3rd flight

[@toddjbradshaw]

@@BluGames Yes sir. Great job on the videos above and thank you for all your efforts. Happy Flying!

[@BluGames]

Thanks for watching and responding

[@petesachs1276]

22volts min for APU start with batteries, 2 minutes APU on before turning on bleeds

[@infiniteflite6222]

How do you set the altimeter to use inhg? Mine is stuck in HPA

[@stagedrightevents9962]

great video thanks! I have one comment regarding the import of the flight plan. The only way it would work for me is by putting in my flight number rather than the city pairs. Wierd because watching your video you used city pairs. This comment is just in case there are others that had this issue. Maybe you would consider doing a video on the ILS approach for the Challanger? TY

[@James-ue6up]

When a quick start guide is 18 minutes long it's never a good sign 😂

[@BluGames]

Bro i tried soo hard to make it shorter. But if you dont wanna learn the fmc You can skip like 6mins

[@James-ue6up]

@@BluGames It's good. It's the most complicated plane in xplane 😅

[@AviationLover2111]

Could you and sim aviator do shared cockpit on the challenger

[@paeduuka64]

Hallo Thank you for your very good videos. I have a question. Where can i trim? Stab Greatings. Chaubi

[@starfire2133]

You do know about the assist handle for the door right?

[@KeithJackson-ov1nu]

Need some assistance on installing Challenger 650 on x plane? My x plane is not seeing it

[@BluGames]

Double check you are choosing the correct folder in the installer.

[@Cai.stone17]

my fms keeps saying "DL FPLN REJECTED" What do i do?

[@NemanjaBosnjane]

Do you know how to change lbs to kg for fuel?

[@renedandy7387]

great video buddy. just a small reminder about fuel calc. One gallon of fuel is almost 7.2 lbs .thats why you got your tanks filled up.

[@CptGioYT]

Great video bro

[@stagedrightevents9962]

Blu, why do I continue to get an ATS Fail? How do I fix that?

[@terryt5512]

Can the Challenger 650 make FL450? If it can, all the better!

[@bw3446]

Nope. Challenger 650 gets to FL410 max, and it will only make around FL370 initially at MTOW.

[@fsxmd90]

nice info

[@BluGames]

Hope it helped

[@petesachs1276]

I need to know how to add the challenger 650 from my pc to the simulator anyone know?

[@BluGames]

Drop the unzipped aircraft folder into your x-plane aircraft folder

[@petesachs1276]

Works great good tool before you go for recurrent

[@MrEufi]

Loving this livery😍

[@xplane11fun83]

How do you change the selection of navigation

[@nicholassinanan7374]

How do you turn on in cabin lights for night operations?

[@BluGames]

The black screen in the galley area controls all the cabin lights

[@passengerescobar]

Can you use any plane in the FBO portion of this? Or does it have to be the Challenger every time?

[@ghl3488]

Thanks very much

[@jimharris1029]

HI CAN YOU DO A DOWNLOAD LINK FOR YOUR VARIUOS SAVE STATES TAXI TAKEOFF ETC SO USERS CAN EASLIY MOVE YOUR SAVE STAES TO THE FOLDER AND LOAD THEM FOR QUICK START FLYING OPTION

[@Er_FoxoneITALIANO]

how can i disconnect tow truck

[@Aleksandar6ix]

So where are the actual instructions for the use of this plane?

[@John-by6jw]

Your tanks weren't full, only the main tanks were. That's why fueling stopped.

[@petesachs1276]

1000lbs is 150 gallons, but you know that

[@slipperfruit]

You forgot flaps lol

[@mahkhi7154]

I Cant Fly This. I Really Only Have Extensive and Detailed Knowledge of a Cessna C152, a Cessna C172 G1000, a Diamond DA40 and a Diamond DA42. I Know a Little about a Cirrus SR22, a Little about a Cessna Citation II 500, a Little about a Gulfstream G500. Extensive Knowledge of an ATR 72 Turbo Prop: However I Wouldn't be able To Fly it. Its Big like an Oil Tanker. I Simply wouldn't be able to use My Eyes to Fly it. A Little about a Airbus A300 and Airbus A310/320. A Little about Boeing 747. So its Only Cessna C152, a Cessna C172 G1000, a Diamond DA40 and a Diamond DA42 for Me, That I Can Fly.
