How does an Aircraft fly by itself? | Auto Pilot System| Modes of Operation | Auto Flight |

Hi. In this video we look at a system which assists a pilot to fly an aircraft: The Auto Pilot System. We look at what is Auto Pilot system, and How the Auto Pilot system functions in an Aircraft. We look at how the system assists in flying an aircraft with information that is sent to Flight Control Computers, Navigation Computers and Auto Thrust System.
We also look at the different modes of operation of the Auto Pilot system which is short term and a long term mode.
Hope its useful. Please Watch and Send in your Feedback. Thank you!

The first part explains basic AP, essentially attitude control for all three axis', and possibly being switchable for less than the three. Everything after that would be additional features and are brand, model, age specific. Some aircraft have extra features and some don't. And the extra features tend to be the results of technical evolution, ie, bigger/newer planes have more stuff, although new small plane might have more stuff than an older big plane.

Thank you for the information!

Thank you for this nice video! This is so interesting

Glad you enjoyed it!

Great work 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽✈️✈️✈️

Thanks a lot!

i would more like to see how the command send to the servos through computer to the control surfaces.

[@JxJAVIATION]

will do!

@@JxJAVIATION thank you :) I like your graphical way of explanation. It helps lot to feed in mind . Better than in class 😁🤦‍♂️

Great explanation!

Thank you!!

Good basic information

Well done

Sir plz make vadio about garmin G1000 saystem

[@JxJAVIATION]

sure. will note it

[@naamya2254]

Interesting. Well done. Thank you. Any suggestions for more explanation of the ap system in depth starting from basic? Thks

[@JxJAVIATION]

Anything specific you are looking for? I have made another video on AUTO LAND. It could be helpful!

[@naamya2254]

@@JxJAVIATION thank you for the answer. Basic knowledge of the autopilot and navigation, to understand better and deeper how the auto pilot works with auto thrust and flight management computer, to understand also better how the ap works in several modes. Hope you can help. Many thanks again.

Sir you doing great job..🥰

Thank You so much!

Hi I am AUTOMATION Engineer, can we collaborate in our research, please?

[@JxJAVIATION]

@@perceptronsaber4479 What kind of collaboration are we looking at?

[@h4runx]

Indeed, the Autopilot does not have a role of thinking, reasoning and decision-making. It executes the pilots' instructions and directions.

[@JxJAVIATION]

That is correct. The inputs may be from data base or short term inputs!

[@snakerstran9101]

That is kind of a potato/tomato view. The pilot commands by turning modes on or off. But once turned on, the AP very much has a role in thinking, reasoning and decision-making, the very definition of a processor. Signals are input to the processor, the processor makes decisions, the processor sends output signals to "fly" the plane.

[@JxJAVIATION]

@@snakerstran9101 The processing is done based on the flight plan that was loaded. Wouldn't say its a decision making process!

[@jamesjeson6207]

Does the autopilot have software that considers earth spin?

[@JxJAVIATION]

It has software that caters for wind and movement of the aircraft but not the Earth's spin

[@davidinnes8754]

A320 is absolutely stable without AP since FBW knows the demand from sidesticks Inner loop and outer loop?/ Flight director?? AT does far more than speed control. Enagae/disengage logic? Yaw damping?? Coupling??

[@JxJAVIATION]

The A320 is an aircraft that is completely flown by computers. I tried to give basic working principle of the autopilot in this video. I will make a different video for the topics you mentioned.

[@petraeva7698]

@@JxJAVIATION great explanation. Not everyone is able to fully understand a more in-depth video. This is perfect for aviation novices.
