Hi i have recently discoved the world of microsoft flight sim along with my 13 year old autistic son. The game has given him so much joy that i recently purchased the turtle beach velocity one flight stick based on your recommendation. Just wanted to thank you for your vids which have really helped both us newbies out.

[@Huddison]

That is incredibly heartwarming and humbling to hear. Thank you for sharing and commenting :)

[@catcracker48]

Wow. Wow. All I can say is wow. I must have seen 20 videos on the same subject. None have been so clear and easy to understand as this video. Many were helpful and informative. But your video is a night and day difference. Subscribing. Thanks.

[@squidge73]

You are such an asset to the flight simulator community.

[@Huddison]

Thanks.

[@mcsherlocks]

Been flying since day 1, still have learnt something here, will be using this in future flights Thanks!

[@Huddison]

Great to hear and thanks Daniel :)

[@johnjones2460]

Thank you. So much...

[@CanaryIrish]

Hudds. Very interesting on the Localiser approach angle. Have used some of your other guidelines on the Garmin. Some of the most well explained guides out there. Excellent as ever. Keep up the good work.

[@Huddison]

Thank you.

[@TPHI17]

Great video, perfect for anyone just starting out and a great refresher for anyone else.

[@Huddison]

That was my aim - oh and great cameo ;)

[@TPHI17]

@@Huddison HAHA thanks for the shout out.

[@HoundDogMech]

How did you manage to enter Hethros Busy airspace without ounce talking to anyone from Approach or even Tower? Ya it's a GAME/Instruction trattori, I get it.

[@riflemusket]

Another nice newbie video HUD. ILS landings are something I haven’t yet tried in MSFS. Used to do it all the time in x-plane. 😊

[@Huddison]

Nice and easy to do, once you know how 😉

[@riflemusket]

@@Huddison I got it to work flying into Torrance Airport near Los Angeles (KTOA). You may want to address that some airports have a localizer-only, and no glide slope! LOC will get you to the runway, but you have to manage the descent. 😝

[@user-jc5uf7nh5z]

Excellent. Really clear instructions. Just remains for me to have ago and practice. Thank you very much. Rob 47:21

[@Huddison]

You're most welcome and good luck Rob.

[@bertonsierens861]

thanks so much for explaining all of this in a easy relaxed way, makes me wanna fly but i'm working hahahaha

[@Huddison]

😀

[@StrGzr101]

Definitely worth the watch. You helped me put the pieces together. Thank you.

[@Huddison]

Great to hear; you're most welcome.

[@BB77s]

Many thanks for this. Exactly what i was looking for guide wise 👍

[@Huddison]

No problem 👍

[@BB77s]

@@Huddison And just completed my first auto pilot flight from departure alt to turn for final. And made my best landing to date 😁

[@terrafly204]

Excellent video and explanation. Thank you.😄

[@Huddison]

My pleasure George :)

[@smiley25884]

thank you for putting in simple for those that just want to fly!!

[@Huddison]

It's really my pleasure ;)

[@billadams8795]

Great Video. Thanks

[@g4kfjve7kfj34]

brilliant many thanks

[@gotbordercollies]

Great video - lots of good information

[@Huddison]

Thanks, I hope it was helpful.

[@caiazzo123]

Lovely job, James I need to watch your videos rather then fly in them I would learn more! Seriously, though excellent video, great tutorial. Mav

[@Huddison]

Thanks Mav ;)

[@squidge73]

Fun Fun Fun 🌵

[@errolrpartridge]

Great video, as ever! Confirmed what I thought I knew plus added a few I things I didn't. I have a nice, cheap custom keyboard setup for AP, ATC etc and an interesting Hotas setup which you may be interested in... Where is best to send pictures?

[@Huddison]

In our Discord (link in the description).

[@errolrpartridge]

Don't know if you ever use it, but the new(ish) features of the VFR Map which allow you to search and bring up info on airfield lengths, altitudes, NAV and COM frequencies etc, all whilst in mid-air, are very useful too. It might be worth sharing in your next video.

[@flip-da-loop]

Great vid, I have been trawling through all your content since I got my xbox. Can you tell me which Autopilot setting you have mapped in the options setting? There seems to be so many autopilots on and off I am having trouble, especially in the Beechcraft King Air. I use keyboard, controller and Airbus Joy Stick X, many thanks, cheers.

[@Huddison]

I use different AP seetina dna mappings, depending on what controller I'm using (I don't unfortunately own the Airbus Flightstick). Here's a good examples of some of my mappings: kzbin.info/www/bejne/mJmthXZur6qErZo

[@yannisspyrakis6098]

Hi Haddison What adjustments you have on the assistance (easy, hard?) menu in MSFS in the main menu while you describe us on your video? :)

[@Huddison]

I have most of my Assistance Options on Hard, but feel free to set Crash damage and Engine Stress to off, whilst you are still getting to grips with the SIm.

[@yannisspyrakis6098]

@@Huddison will do

[@HoundDogMech]

Is there someone in the Phoenix area that knows how to setup the Turtle Beach V1f and willing to help. Can't seem to accomplish this. Thus can't do any Flight Syms.

[@brunogt1982]

Is flow available on xbox now?

[@Huddison]

I don't believe so as yet. I will do another advanced video on it soon.

[@squidge73]

Why do they call it the outer knob when it is in fact the inner one?

[@Huddison]

That is just my skewed way of looking at things ;)
