Lol - not sure why, but South Africans tend to make excellent tutorials! Good job - thanks :)

[@echoman9705]

So glad part 2’s up… Cheers, man

[@brainflight7144]

A very clear and easy to understand introduction. Many Thanks

By far the best tutorials

[@noahsimonsen5491]

Am i the only one who has that problem where the planes turns really bad on ground, i can barely turn it

[@carrotcakin7187]

i have the same issue, no idea how to fix it. it might actually be for realislm or something lol

[@beanhead4390]

u use nose wheel steering?

Excellent video, it has helped me so much. Any idea how best to obtain your thrust reduction altitude?

[@MrHarjas21]

Thanks for such a great video! One quick question i had is when i push the altitude knob to enter managed altitude mode, i dont have the dot that appears to the right of the altitude...any idea what causes this?

[@stanmakecombo402]

The altitude restrictions dont show up in my navigation panel how can i find when i can go to my cruise altitude

[@YTskypoint]

what should I do if have MANUAL [hdg] showing I in my top right on ND? If I go to the NAV mode it just turns for that heading instead of following my flight plan

[@RealSimPilot]

It should be in managed mode. It should show the small circle on the mcp panel instead of a heading.

I have an issue autopilot don't follow plan idk why and I have to put manually every hdg and staff pls help

Very helpful video, thanks! Just a general question: how do you decide when to engage the autopilot after takeoff?

[@RealSimPilot]

It's up to you. Try hand fly it for as long as you can but if you start falling behind with all the things that need to be done then engage it

[@eivindramsdal5243]

[@frankconstantine6218]

Hello. I’m a beginner and really trying with your videos. I’ve watched them repeatedly and I’ve learned quite a bit. Can you help me? 1. The flypad indicates a QNH of 1013. I’m using the default ATC and she indicates a setting of 29.91 prior to take off. Which one do I use? I’m flying out of Manchester. 2. On takeoff you say to use toga. However when I go to toga, I get the alarm. Why the alarm? 3. Auto pilot will not engage at all. When I click auto pilot, I get a couple of beeps or noises and no auto pilot. This is all with the FBW A32nx. I wanted to learn this plane since I got the Simbrief/Navigraph subscription. Thank you

[@RealSimPilot]

1013 is hectopascals. In the USA they use millibars so the default atc is using that. You can change the qnh display in the a32nx to millibars. The alarm is a take off configuration alarm. Means you're not properly configured for takeoff. Did you set your flaps before using toga? Autopilot not coming on is a sign that the mcdu is not setup correctly.

After a pause of more than 4 years I am back to the flight sim community. I was flying the PMDG B777 in FSX. Now in MSFS, I have my first encounter with the Airbus product via the FlyByWire A32NX. So far so good. Only one problem; hte Top of Climb and Top of Descent markers do not show up on the Nav Display nor in the MCDU Flight-Plan Page. I have meticulously followed each and every steps in the tutorial (Manchester to Dusseldorf flight), I tried in 4 times and every time the makers do no appear. Probably missing somethin somewhere. Any suggestions?

[@dimitry1653]

Hi there, the TOC and TOD markers are related to VNAV, which is only available in the Experimental version of the A32nx. Also make sure you have INIT B filled in properly

[@alainbeaulieu9944]

@@dimitry1653 Thank you very much for your answer. Beleive it or not, but I found out only a few hours ago that TOC and TOD were available in the experimental version only. That version was the only I had not tryed. I am currently doing the Manchester - Dusseldorf flight in the experimental version and everything is working properly. Thank you again

[@marion1979]

why can't I keep the a32nx straight? I don't have this problem with the microsoft a320 version.

[@flightvideo-travelreport6856]

in your checklist you set weather and terrain radar set, but I missed where you did that.

[@LiamKaniasSlattegard]

Im having problems steering the aircraft on the ground while yousing my rudders why. Like sometimes its just allways turns right and cant turn left. And sometimes you cant turn the aircraft at all?

[@Flightsimpilot12]

Excellent tutorial! 👍👍

[@Topcat1952]

Greetings! I just watched this video again as a review but did have a question: Right after you took off, the A320 seemed to begin flying the SID, but you had not engaged the autopilot as yet. I was under the impression that the A/P had to be engaged before the plane would go into managed mode and start navigating according to what was programmed into the MCDU. Apparently, I missed something you must have done to get the plane to begin the right turn following takeoff. I thought maybe you set the heading into selected mode but I thought that still required the A/P to be engaged. Appreciate you straightening me out. Thanks!

[@RealSimPilot]

I was flying it manually. If you look carefully I'm not perfectly on the green line but close enough. Thanks for watching :)

[@Topcat1952]

OK. That was one of my guesses but I dismissed it as being too simple an explanation. 😄@@RealSimPilot

[@gunlover5147]

Man this is so hard, when i put the route in the airplanes computer i get different routes and the autopilot dossent follow the route, is that normal?

[@H.Witcher]

My aircraft starts moving with engines at 20% thrust which is also the idle thrust. Also, I use a KB for turning the rudder in taxi way but the turn circle is very small compared to the default aircraft. Anyone knows why or can advise please?

[@splinter6969]

Hi, did you go into the EFB (electronic flight bag) then settings and sim options and calibrate your throttle detents ? I removed reverse and bound a key to hold for reverse instead. For rudder issue have you tried going into EFB Settings and realism and switch on separate tiller from rudder inputs? Not tried this myself since I have rudder pedals.

[@H.Witcher]

Cheers David, I did calibrate all my throttles in EFB. Is Idle thrust 20% correct and is it meant to move the aircraft when parking brake is released? I shall try to switch on separate tiller from rudder inputs in EFB. I shall also update the Experimental version and have tried the stable and Development versions too - experienced same issues.

[@Irrelevant-Individual]

@@H.Witcher It isn't, but it might be a case of the flight simulator sensitivity being off (settings > controls > select throttle > sensitivity). I know I had to manipulate mine before it finally stopped recognizing reverse thrust as idle.

[@anthonykago4428]

Why does the engine PSI reading in the lower ECAM dispaly flash red?

Hey! Great videos, they're helping me a lot! A Newbie trying to fly But I've got some questions: 1 - the aircraft controls are extremelly slow and laggy, while taxing, the aircraft does not goes back to center after making a turn, it will keep turning 2 - Anyway to make these steps, but to have the ATC guide on the IFR? Thanks

Hey do u have any reasons why my plane isn’t following my flight plan it’s on autopilot

[@Percey1]

How do you input altitude restrictions into the MCDU so they show up when you turn on CSTR? Yours just seemed to show up as if they carried from your SimBrief plan, mine do not.

[@RealSimPilot]

They should show up automatically I don't add them manually.

Great Tutorials from you, many thx for that. I have just one Problem, i dont have these arrow indicators for climb and descent, while flying in the PFD. I dont know why, do you have any idea? i mean indicators for TOC and TOD , which version of the FBW a320 do u use pls.

Ok, it went really good until takeoff. First off all the A/Thr did not engage. I noticed your went on by itself when you set TO speed but mine did not. After some fiddling it came on in the air climbing. It kinda messed things up a bit. Also my climb speed is set to 210 by MCDU. No way to change that. I can not set it manually. Have tried but no effect. Might be a bug with my FBW installation. QUESTION. Did you do something to set /THR or does it come automatically? I could not set it during takeoff so I have no idea how to enable it.

[@avfx111]

i think the THR section comes automatically and/or it is not implemented in the fbw a32nx because anything i type in that field, it gives me a "Format error" message

[@MrVilla2000]

After having a break from MSFS due to work , and moving, I am back in the seat. I see what I did wrong the first time and have succefully done my first flight. My mistake earlier was to miss the Throttle lever to get in CLIMB . An easy step but something I overlooked.

Make sure auto rudder is off in the assistance options.. if that does not help check out the separate tiller function for the A32nx. I think you have not set that up.
