[Prepar3D] Majestic Dash 8 Q400 | Full Tutorial | KDEN ✈ KMSP

[@VICTORHUGO1860]

Congratulations! The sound of your voice is very clear, well posed and the sound of the plane and the environment is balanced, bravo Captain! .The graphic rendering is very good too, well done!

[@Q8Pilot]

I am really glad I got it right this time =) Thanks for letting me know and for watching the video!

[@Felix-wc1lu]

Thanks for the video Q8. I must say, regarding the quality & frequency of your videos, I really have a great appreciation for the amount of time & dedication you put into what is now an excellent channel. Well done & much respect to you.

[@Q8Pilot]

Thank you for your kind words and for supporting the channel!

[@josephliptak]

Im just amazed at the G-forces this plane can do as in barrel rolls, inside/outside loops. What else can this baby do without sheering a wing. Any hammerhead stalls? Snap rolls? Figure 8's? Who needs a biplane for stunts when you've got a beast like this Canadian bird.

[@sidplays77]

Also during climb reduce to 900 props, set IAS to 185, after 10k reduce props to 850 and set ias to 210 until reach cruise

[@Q8Pilot]

Thanks, yes the props were retarted to 900, but you must do this only after 1000ft AGL, IAS to 185 will depend on your climb speed which will be affected by weight and balance. Looks like you use FS2Crew which is great, but not 100% accurate.

[@JonFlyTV]

I am just about to fly this plane for the first time. This video has been extremely useful for my preflight training. I'm glad you got the correct ILS freq in there ;) I think the ATIS info you got was not for KMSP but for KTKC. I am going to put your KEGE to KDEN flight on the to watch next list, thanks again for this very informative and easily found full tutorial.

[@Q8Pilot]

Hey Jon, glad you enjoyed the video. Big fan of your channel and all the content you create for XP =) Blue skis captain!

[@sethcampbellmusic]

I noticed you were at Concourse A at KDEN. The United/Express Concourse is Concourse B. Other than that nitpicking, awesome video.

[@theflightchannel]

Nice video man!!!

[@Q8Pilot]

Thanks a million! Big fan of your channel!

[@spotflightsim2866]

I can't believe it! He's done another full flight in row! Thank you so much Osamah!

[@Q8Pilot]

Spotflightsim Thanks for watching buddy!

[@MrBigmak24]

Icing condition is only appearing when the aur is wet and cold, an really cold temp means that the air is dry as well so usually geyting into a cloud with a temp between -4 to 7 degrees is potentially dangerous

[@MrBigmak24]

Humidity is the most important thing

[@omarijoseph3189]

i totally love the Q400..like flying from Big airports like Denver to smaller municipal airports..very good presentation, love the part about the weight & balance. I like the "follow me" car..and yes as you said..taxiing at Denver can take a while...very nice en route scenery..very nice approach...good landing...sweet video

[@Q8Pilot]

Thank you for your kind words and for watching the video Omari, appreciate it!

[@sidplays77]

Love your channel! No need to turn off nose wheel steering before takeoff, above a certain speed you have full rudder deflection with NWS on. This means you don’t have to remember to turn NWS back on when you land.

[@golamsamdani4714]

That's is called VMCG

[@747simmer4]

I love when he does these types of vids

[@Q8Pilot]

Flying Superstars Hopefully more full flight moving forward. Thanks for watching.

[@jacqueslauzon9329]

I just bought this airplane and your video is and will be very usefull to me. Thanks a lot.

[@obriets]

No need to apologize for not setting bleeds. This was a United flight, which means you can ignore your passengers’ concerns.

[@superskullmaster]

obriets lol I’m ☠️

[@lukealucard]

Nice video. How to start the airplane in cold and dark state? thx

[@zefroy3297]

How to set it to cold n dark on my dash its only on turn around state

[@prosefson2561]

what are you using to get that dispatch release form for the passengers and fuel?

[@kroswynd]

Good video. Batteries are turned on via the Master Battery first, followed by the MAIN, AUX & STBY.

[@Q8Pilot]

Thanks!

[@AirborneGeek]

P3d v4 looks really good...Would love to watch more videos with other aircrafts as well :)

[@Q8Pilot]

I will certainly do more flights in P3D moving forward!

[@JayRope83]

Thank You... I got this aircraft last night. I appreciate the tutorial! It's nothing like a PMDG. lol

[@spotflightsim2866]

19:25 What a driver! :P And that van is a Daihatsu. :)

[@dannyhaggblom4995]

Enjoyed the video and needed the instruction for this airplane. I am also wondering how you got RWY 35 to be live at KMSP? I have tried to find airport scenery for KMSP on P3D v4.3 thru avsim and commercial products, I don't find any. I am a resident of Minneapolis and am bewildered why a program hasn't been written for RWY 17/35, for any of the versions of P3D.

[@samsoliven]

Do you have failure scripts tutorial?

[@hfc3948]

on MFD , HDG shows on the top of panel , can it change to ground track course? where can I see the ground track?

[@billyemorie6403]

hi , just a question , how do u get your ZFW number 55441? in your simbrief it doesnt say any of that number

[@77flyer]

How u maintain center during roll on takeoff with no pedals? I’m having issues with steering, all other addons are ok

[@Q8Pilot]

You can assign a keyboard button, but it would be very difficult.

[@captain_fox]

Nice flight, nice plane. Thank you. One question. I'm flying p3d and Dash8Q400 too....how to calculate TOD? Can FMS do it like PMDG Boeing?

[@Daniel_JS]

I'm no expert in the Dash, but a nice figure in the 737 is three times your altitude divided by a 1000, so say you're at 37000ft, divide it by 1000 to get 37, then time it by 3 and you get 111 which, if you don't have your TOD calculated automatically is the amount of nautical miles you start your descent, give it a shot

[@mosaico2011]

Q8pilot , do you have Dash 8 Q400 Legacy By FlyJSim-Dash8-Q400 ... if yes can you make a review please ? I am thinking to buy it from xplane 11 store and not sure if it’s good or not , thanks

[@Oddflame370]

Good stuff! Thanks for this.

[@Q8Pilot]

Thanks for watching buddy!

[@ersaviation3031]

Hey what kind of computer do you got? Because those are some pretty nice graphics

[@danp1975]

Great video! Looking forward to more.

[@Q8Pilot]

Thanks for watching, more to come in the future!

[@anduboi2750]

How and where do you get the Q400 Control Panel?

[@Philip-kc2et]

Is the RotateSim MD-80 a Study Level Aircraft? And which ones could you also recommend me for X Plane 11.

[@Q8Pilot]

Philip B It's a very good aircraft...i wouldn't call it study level but it is a good representation of the real aircraft.

[@Philip-kc2et]

Q8Pilot okay. Thanks

[@Philip-kc2et]

Q8Pilot I can't decide to take CRJ 200 or MD 80

[@Q8Pilot]

MD80 without a doubt!

[@Philip-kc2et]

Q8Pilot purchased. Thanks for your tips

[@copixel37]

Being from Minnesota this was fun to watch, people say Minneapolis/St Paul because the major cities are so close to each other (Twin Cities) technically KMSP has nothing to do with St Paul and the airport itself is located in Bloomington (Minneapolis Suburb) as is the Mall of America

[@Q8Pilot]

Glad you enjoyed the video Cory, and thanks for the info.

[@Xenonclouds]

Great vid.....Anyone know what he uses to get flight plans etc?

[@VedMerchant17]

AWESOME!!!! Loving these p3d videos too

[@Q8Pilot]

I am enjoying P3D a lot, but I keep going back to X-Plane and forget P3D. This time, I have a written schedule so that I don't forget =)

[@VedMerchant17]

haha it is difficult to choose if you have all the required addons for p3d....else it is an easy choice :)

[@CFC_Max021]

Those warnings are just AWESOME TERRAIN TERRAIN PULL UP

[@cleniolelys]

Great video with a fantastic aircraft. Thank you for more this video my friend.

[@Q8Pilot]

Thanks for your usual support Silvio =)

[@fil1933]

Hello! Awesome video....I had a question about the JARdesign a330 .....so I originally bought this plane (x plane 11 version) on a mac, however now I upgraded to a better rig using windows, and I was wondering if I could still use this plane on windows or how to just do a fresh install of the plane so that it could work for windows....is that possible? Thank you!

[@axelhattrup2709]

Am not able to put the aircraft into a cold and dark state. When I go to the control panel and click apply, it tells me to reload the aircraft to activate the changes, but hasn't changed. I have also tried reload user object without success.

[@Q8Pilot]

Restart your PC. Don't load p3d. Go immediately to control panel. Set to cold and dark and click save. Start the sim and you should be in cold and dark.

[@axelhattrup2709]

After multiple attempts and strategies I was finally able to get the aircraft into a cold and dark state. I really appreciate you taking the time to help me out! Great video! Keep up the good work!

[@sr.conejo9679]

What plugins advise me essential for x plane 11, both video and meteorology???

[@dutchstormchaser2967]

Hey Q8Pilot , did you use any plugin? cuz i love the atc/ ground commands

[@rivvur]

Nice! Can't wait to watch.

[@Q8Pilot]

PuddingSimulations Thanks mate =)

[@Q8Pilot]

That's strange, are taking off with FLEX temp set?

[@Q8Pilot]

The best bet is post your issue at the FSLabs forum. Perhaps someone has had the same issue and can help. Thank you for your kind words!

[@mosaico2011]

Hi there .. just a quick question is this aircraft better than Dash 8 Q400 Legacy By FlyJSim-Dash8-Q400 for xplane 11 ? For me it seems this majestic dash 8 looks more realistic !!!

[@MarkanSaYT]

Hello, Legacy is the first addon made by FJS and it is flyable but not on this level. FJS is working on a new version for Dash 8 called Q4XP which will be way better than Legacy and I believe it will be the same as Majestic Dash 8 for P3D. But as Q4XP is still not out we can't be 100% sure.

[@danp1975]

Great video! Love that Q400

[@Skypilotsimulation]

Hi, I saw the video and its very impressive, I want please to know I do you control the speed because I am didn't noticed this in your flight thanks Aviv

[@chryssemansmilanes7304]

The aircraft doesn't have autothrust so you have to manually adjust the speed using the throttle lever

[@Ash-db8ju]

G'day Q8 Pilot. What sort of system settings are you running? Cheers.

[@akosbohus6326]

How did you avoid the hazy windshield issue as we saw in the previous video?

[@Q8Pilot]

Turn on the window heater on the pilot side.

[@antonionozzi4423]

Majestic (P3D) vs FlyJSim (XP11)... which is the best?

[@Q8Pilot]

Both have their high and low points. I will do a video in the near future.

[@antonionozzi4423]

@@Q8Pilot I would be great!

[@gertjanvandermeij4265]

Doesn't p3d has something like XPRealistic ? Looks weird when you land and nothing 'shakes'

[@Q8Pilot]

ChasePlane does the trick. For the Majestic Dash 8 it is disabled for some reason.

[@brendan6066]

You should put in variable emergencies into these videos so we can have some cool variation but other than that it’s great!

[@Q8Pilot]

I will be doing a series on emergencies in the near future. I will begin with the 737, but it will be in x-plane. Thanks for watching!

[@Rc51fans]

Great video, I enjoyed it. Very informative.

[@DonCorleoneNL]

Great video q8pilot, can I ask you where you made that flightplan?

[@Q8Pilot]

Thanks Don, I used PFPX for the flight plan.

[@hhhaze]

How can you adjust your camera? My point of view is on the front windshield, and I cant move my head. Btw amazing😍

[@manleybrittain1296]

Great video! I like this airplane!

[@Q8Pilot]

Thanks buddy, I do too =)

[@rahulmaurya3886]

hat did you do for the flight plan

[@captainnatedawg40]

Would I get good performance in p3d with an i5 7500, amd rx 480, 16gb ddr4 ram, 500gb ssd?

[@solidwings6388]

Nice video but what about vnav and ias mode?

[@solidwings6388]

And what about setting vnav in the fms in order to have an t/d point on the nd and a managed descend rate?

[@Q8Pilot]

Assad Kansao For VNAV...go to VNAV page and click on VTO and select the first point before your TOD in the flight plan. You may need to adjust the altitude if not set in the FMS.

[@solidwings6388]

ok thank you very much captain!!

[@Q8Pilot]

Most welcome Assad =)

[@fireball76a]

Great video :) what are your settings? thanks

[@marcocoscoy7595]

Runway 35 isnt included with the default scenery, I landed on a taxiway :(

[@aidanherbel7436]

Can u do how to do a co flight in x plane with other people!😀

[@Q8Pilot]

Sure I will consider this for the future.

[@kshitijshringi8841]

Are you playing on keyboard and mouse??

[@superskullmaster]

Wonder how many people will end up here because of Barrel roll “Rich”.

[@SimYorker]

What KDEN scenery do you use?

[@Q8Pilot]

Flightbeam Studios.

[@ranggaalr]

how you make the flight plan??

[@jonathancox677]

Skyvector is also free and it is great to plug in your flight plan from sim brief to see it topographically and make adjustments. I love sky vector more than anything.

[@avinavi5414]

Great vid :D Btw what addons are you using?

[@Imtypingthiswithmylefthand]

Young Aviator it says it in the video title. “Majestic Dash-8”

[@mr.737ng3]

Nice vid! What are your Specs?

[@Q8Pilot]

Thanks, specs are available at www.q8pilot.com

[@computertutorials1286]

What song is that in the intro?

[@Q8Pilot]

computer tutorials12 Got it from Audio Jungle. Can't remember the name.

[@kiloromeo7653]

Many thanks for the video:) Regards.

[@ge-90aviation]

How do u make such a great intro

[@arrowaviation4207]

I play mainly X-Plane 11, but this video just makes me think about P3D as well, with great add-ons like This Dash 8 or PMDG product, I absolutely cant decide.... :/

[@Q8Pilot]

If you can afford both sims go for it. They offer different experiences hence both are worth it in my view.

[@arrowaviation4207]

Thank you sir for your answer. I will go for it!

[@MrPolska55]

excellent

[@Simon_2020]

I wish a q400 would actually come to msp

[@Simon_2020]

MSP WAS ACKNOWLEDGED OMFG

[@aaronwhite1786]

I really wish they would import this into X-Plane.

[@danielclay2503]

Nice

[@Q8Pilot]

Thanks!

[@vololibero8330]

No icing conditions because therewas no cloud.

[@AccOriginal]

weather radar is telling you: rainbow :D

[@rshvkkt91]

Bad bad bad landing. Why can't you just maintain two red two white on papi?

[@Q8Pilot]

Something caught your attention for sure out of the 43 minute video. Thanks for watching the landing.

[@golamsamdani4714]

You have lots of mistakes in your flying . You took took with Pitch hold its always HDG GA ALT SEL . YOU CLIMBED ON VS, WHICH SHOULD HAVE BEEN IAS. AGAIN WHILE YOU WERE ON THR LNAV YOUR HDG BUG WERE WAY OUT OF YOUR TRACKS . WRONG WRONG . LEARN FIRST.

[@williamnesbitt9076]

Don't you just love people who criticize because they think they know better. Golam, I don't see any of your videos on line!!

[@cheeter111]

wondering what set up you have on your pc beacause I cant get good performance on i7 7770 with 1080 Ti
