Finding proper guidance in the game can be quite challenging, and it's rare to come across a KZbinr who explains things as effectively as this individual. Thanks to their guidance, I've mastered flying the Cessna 152 with ease. Their insights into key controls and camera settings were incredibly helpful.

[@Sean_Coyne]

TrackIR is simply magical on this sim, I can not recommend it enough. I have a 32" 1440p monitor on a stand over my Honeycomb yoke, so a bit closer than I otherwise could get it. The ability to look around you effortlessly, or lean in and out to read instruments and switches, or straighten up and look over the nose of the plane is just awesome. I was even hanging out the side of the Pitts Special, as I buzzed the Pyramids and all I needed was a fan on my face to make the illusion complete.

[@Joaquin8911]

I'm new to Flight sims, so these videos have been just amazing to start things up. great content!

[@Porphyrios1]

These are great! Hope the series has many more to come, I'll need them!

[@IntotheBlueSimulations]

It’s great to be able to get a handle on all of this before starting in the sim. Makes the transition easier. Thanks Squirrel! Looking forward to hitting the ground running and making some vids myself!

[@SnipR9]

And thus, a legend was born!

[@davidhenry3225]

Fantastic tutorial - thank you so much for taking the time to create is - so very well explained and I followed along step by step! It's already opened up a whole new insight into the programme's possibilities - a MSFS2020 hero!

[@whoswasian]

This is getting me even more hyped for the release! Also, good works on the tutorials. It will be great for beginners at flight sims. 👍

[@thematthewyoung]

this is my first one I'm pumped! squirrels videos are getting me by until Tuesday!!

[@whoswasian]

Matthew Young I hope you will enjoy the flight sim! 😁

[@NIKFLICK707]

I'm worried about their servers on launch day 🤣🤣🤣

[@whoswasian]

electronics_ is_love Welp. I guess we just going to see 😂😂

[@whoswasian]

Just got the game. It is amazing!

[@DarthChrisDK]

Thanks for lot for these videos. They are incredibly useful. I have zero experience in a flight sim, but I have everything set up and ready to go for Tuesday, and being able to get a head-start by watching these tutorials is so satisfying and useful. Thanks!

[@vincentcarlo8670]

Thanks Squirrel ! You are making the wait for release day even more exciting and with your tutorials it will be even better !

[@georgeweir3242]

I just tried MSFS for the first time, the graphics blew me away and I uninstalled XPLANE 11 and FSX10 and will never go back. I am so glad to have stumbled on this series. Episodes 1, 2, and now 3 are just what I needed to start to get off to a good start. Thank you Squirrel.

[@isitwitha]

This is absolutely top notch tutorial-making, SQL ! Many thanks for catching us MSFS2020 newbies up! Salute to you, Mr. Squirrel!

[@Oscar-jc8jp]

I was always wondering about the camera, Thank you, Squirrel!

[@timgwilliams]

Thanks Squirrel - great job. I've been looking for this kind of tutorial that starts pretty much at the beginning. I'm close to getting things set up and watching this gives me more confidence I can succeed in this "hobby"and makes me more comfortable with the investment I'm making. You have a good pace and if I miss something I just rewind and listen again. You are a fast talker but I'm good with that because it's all description.

[@leboromeo]

Ah, Squirell. God bless you, my friend. Love from Aus.

[@BeowulfGaming]

amazing tutorials, ive spent around 20 hours just learning the game from youtube and guides and this was t he best series i found, everything else is 1 hour long and not straightforward, categorized and explained as well as this

[@ItsTioli]

This has been super helpful to get ahead of the game for release day. Thanks for taking the time for making these videos.

[@MIHAO]

these tutorials are a great way to get started with the sim nice and quick. thanks Squirrel!

[@PetriSirkkala]

I really like your tutorials. Well thought teaching material. I like your attention to detail and thorough presentations. Thank you for making these!

[@ryangi5]

Your tutorials are VERY helpful! Thank you!

[@lbergan2]

Nice job! This is one of the best video tutorial series I've ever watched. Thanks!

[@dowglaslimabarbosasousa4294]

Well done, sir. Thank you for this tutorial. Happy flights!

[@paddyredmond3039]

This new series of tutorials is great - thank you very much.

[@karlschultz4138]

Thanks for the awesome camera tutorial. Makes a tonne more sense now. The dragging the box bigger isn’t very obvious.

[@TheSoldonnick]

I created a youtube library called Flight Sim School and saved all your videos to it. I will be using these so much. Thank you sir!

[@JorgeAmengol]

Thanks for the videos. As I would spend some time in the sim to find out about those things, it helps to get ahead before the launching and as a reference after it.

[@LowOnCash]

Best camera video out there- thanks so much for sharing! Mike

[@menas136]

Thank you! coming in from X-Plane11, i was really finding it difficult to grasp, your video made it easy; thanks for putting it in a nutshell!

[@shawnpotter7161]

Thanks for taking the time to make this video, very helpful!

[@jaydorjames9074]

A good teacher is worth their weight in gold. Thank you for being a good teacher..

[@tenskippern1394]

Good, none yelling, and focused instructions, nice job, thank you.

[@rafaelperucchi]

This video is just I have been looking for, amazing tips!!! Thank you!!!! 👊🏻👊🏻

[@johnb48]

This has helped me so much. Thank you for taking the time to make these videos.

[@simonottewell7475]

This was an invaluable tutorial. Thank you.

[@Jestey6]

In awe, I try to do something and can’t find out how to do it. Then I look on your KZbin list and lo and behold the answer is there. My FS2020 baptism would have been next to impossible without your guidance. Ordered an Xbox controller this morning, I want to fly like youoo. Big thanks Paul, Noel.

[@Nirbhav21]

Let's go another squirrel video, I love these videos! Keep it up

[@Andy-fs3us]

Very Helpful video Squirrel Thanks cant wait for Tuesday !!

[@chrismacdonald.6295]

[@kaisiangst3658]

Bravo! This is super useful, thank you!

[@edaten4205]

These are fantastic. Thank you so much!

[@Drovek451]

I've been enjoying these series of videos. Very nice and useful and great explanations about the quirky UI. Please eventually make one on ATC comms and do's and dont's with regards to those.

[@HOTMiSCHiEF1]

These will really help me hit the ground running!

[@oswaldohazbon739]

My dear Squirrel, thanks you for your fantastic idea of prepare us and to give to all us who we want to learn every day day a little bit more about your knowledge in this beautiful art of fly! Please you keeping teaching these amazing tutorials, that some day we will meet in the air fliying. Have a fantastic day. 🙏👊😜

[@flightsimulatormovies2939]

I'm going to have so much fun with the drone camera, that's for sure!

[@eduardopatino6678]

Excellent tutorial. Thanks so much

[@johnpeters5906]

Thank you , I have learned so much, quick to chapter 4 :)

[@G4ZZYP]

[@lorenohvh]

I totally agree sir, i’ve waited for this game for a pretty long time. And I probaly can’t sleep the night bedoel the launch😂

[@lorenohvh]

Before*

[@TrueBlade-1889]

Unless you wake up at 3am and start downloading it... And can't get back to sleep ! Can't be bothered now 😃😃😃

[@ParallaxRS]

Not watched it yet but this series is great already. As a seasoned simmer it's what we need to seamlessly make the jump from P3d to new FS

[@geoden]

A useful explanatory video, thankyou!

[@AUM_3000]

really .. I had to watch this video more than 2 times. It's a wonderful instruction video. I learned a lot about utilization the cameras of the simulator. Very nice effort and the way you explain things is nice and easy. much much clear.. thank you for your outstanding effort.

[@virtualtraveller8676]

Squirel I love your videos man. I am subscribed for a long time. Keep up the good work.

[@constantinenikitin5397]

This was very informative. Thank you!

[@davidrosenblum2178]

Thank you for this! It is so useful!

[@Fred-le5pe]

Excellent series.

[@darrenboedeker2045]

Very useful! Thanks for the great tutorial!

[@tubeztoonz]

Very helpful-thanks!

[@dibbley1448]

Loving these tutorials

[@crunchieRL]

Really enjoying the series :)

[@Ericrollers]

The game comes out tonight for me 12 in the morning so excited!

[@JamesSmith-km8xu]

Nice one Squirrel! great series

[@AmazingPhilippines1]

Appreciate the tutorial. Just starting out with this.

[@phillipbeharall6271]

Brilliant you have saved a lot of people a lot of work thank you 👏👏👏👏👏😀

[@raymondgoubet]

Extremely useful! Thank you so much! Thumb up!

[@Dennis-xs9cn]

Very useful video. Many thanks

[@rogerthornhill2435]

Thank you , because of your teaching I have moved from xplane to this. I find your teaching very is helping me to come to grips with flying

[@fouad58]

Thanks, I learned a lot from this video, it saves me a lot of time.

[@fulltimespy]

Can't wait for the replay system to make cinematic videos of my flights. Now I'll have to make due with the drone, and the free camera, and locked camera's. Edit: thank you for showing that the xbox controller is useful with the drone. This is gonna help me a ton with making videos.

[@xpxbdsims]

Thanks a lot. I just have a shy of relief after watching this particular video on camera setup. I think your tutorial videos are super useful. Please, you may consider adding a link to all the default and custom key assignments in a text or PDF file in the video description.

[@olivan000]

this is a perfect briefing for cam views thanks a lot.

[@goblinboner]

Best tutorial series of ANY game tutorial series I've ever seen

[@waynebob7770]

Fantastic useful information 👍..thankyou

[@Aphrobyte]

Thank You for this helpful video!

[@matejeeya]

You just did what took me half day to figure out even tho I come from FSX. Thanks for doing this!

[@MaxRank]

By far the most over complex camera system ever. Totally not needed, X-Plane nailed the camera .

[@scribe0714]

This series by this British expert is excellent!

[@einfussganger]

13:14 OMG, you're a lifesaver - those headings without anything under them drove me crazy in this UI. Who knew they were expandable windows? You, I guess - and now me. Thanks you!!!

[@emmanuelperez9490]

Thank you this was super helpful.

[@Chris73619]

And that is why playing this in VR makes a lot more sense! :)

[@JimNortonsAlcoholism]

or TrackIR

[@joetroyner]

Yeah, TrackIR seems like a better way to interface with the instruments.

[@colderwar]

VR makes sense if you like to see terrible resolution at lousy frame rates. Everyone I know spends more time tweaking their VR than flying with it.

[@zero_burrito]

This is perhaps the best tutorial yet... Coming from Xplane this is completely different...

[@etravix]

Thanks for sharing and yes very useful.

[@andrevdw747]

Thanks! Very useful 👍🏻

[@rmc5345]

Keep em coming bro

[@CyrilDeretz]

Great video Squirrel. On the drone camera, if you press the left thumb button on the XBox gamepad, you lock the centre of focus and can fly around your plane or something else

[@DragonPilot]

Slowly getting there! Can't believe how previous flt sim did not make this an easy transition. That said, it's fun being back in school again!

[@Loked420]

been watching these videos while waiting for my flight stick to arrive. I've had the game since last week, but can't bring myself to play it without it.

[@AlexFeldstein]

Excellent tutorial!

[@jakew9887]

Great Video. Thanks

[@Steamy1223]

These have been entertaining

[@thatltsmash]

Brilliant tutorial video! It was an understatement when you said that camera controls are not intuitive in MSFS 2020!

[@guile_0]

Thank you! This really helped!!!

[@quekzhihao1]

Thanks Captain Squirrel!

[@VRFlightSimGuy]

Super useful thankyou

[@laurabroadway3688]

Hey squirrel!!! Love your vids!!!

[@johnkhan18]

Just found these after finally installing MSFS. All I can say at this time is I hope Chaseplane gets a version for this. Great videos, thank you.

[@criticalthinker7822]

Thank you so much. Was starting to get irritated but your tutorial helped a lot.

[@fssim6825]

This is the best camera tutorial

[@chrismacdonald.6295]

Thanks for this Squirrel. I’ve just bought the game and doing the tutorials and could not for the life of me work out how to get the external view with controls. I’m still playing the sim with keyboard, almost impossible. I can’t wait for a joystick to get in my hand. Many thanks again.

[@kevinhendon]

You pre-emptied my question regarding camera angles & track ir, so different to x plane 11 regarding cameras.

[@Sacredl1es]

Got my Thurstmaster + track Ir! makes flying this soooo! good :D but thanks for this videos really helps a novice like me on my first flight! :)

[@TheFEARSKSNV]

Rare YT channel with normal MFS content. good job.
