FSX Full autopilot and ILS landing tutorial (Basic)

Heya guys! This is a quick video on a simple ILS landing with an Autopilot flight. This video is only to show how the autopilot works, not showing you every stage such as flaps ect. It was made at a request of someone i play with and although i messed up in a few places did not have enough time to re-do! If you have any questions make sure you leave it in the comments!

I think this is by far the most helpful youtube video I have ever seen.

I KNOW ITS BEEN SO MUCH TIME BUT I LOVE IT AND AFTER ALL THESE DAYS I FINALLY LANDED TYTYT!!!

Without a doubt, the best tutorial on ILS flights, ON the internet! Very clear, step by step procedures, and all under 20 minutes. 5/5 mate, you earned a sub! :)

Just to let you know, you don't have to wait for both diamonds to be in the middle, as long as both diamonds appear you turn the approach hold on and it will sort the diamonds out to the middle itself.

I´v been watching many tutorials, but this is the best! Thank you!

Good info on the ILS/Autopilot, will defo help me out in FSX

[XpertPilotFSX]

Maybe some improvements:
Takeoff - speed 140 flaps 5
Landing - 10 miles: flaps 0 speed 180
7 miles flaps 5 speed 165
5 miles: landing gear down flaps 15
3 miles: flaps 25
2 miles: flaps 30
altitude 100ft: disengage the autopilot and auto-throttle
50ft: power idle
30ft: start flaring 5-10 degrees
touchdown: reverse thrust, spoilers up
speed 60knts: disengage reverse and start manually braking
near taxiway: exit


Hope that gives you better performance! Good luck!

Brilliant demonstration..After watching more than 20 videos, noting could come to the feet of this video...this really helps in understandin the ILS..gr8 subscribed...

As a complete noob, you've just made my life a hell of a lot easier

[raeesmaredia]

Thank you for this tutorial you have solved my biggest part of FSX.

[MrEhab]

I watched so many videos on how to use ILS and so far you are the best one I have seen so far thank you very much for sharing

[TheUnderdogDjr]

Great video man. Don't sweat the mix ups - they made it more entertaining. It was informative and funny. Thanks again for posting it!

Pressing SHIFT + / will arm the spoilers. Then they will deploy automatically once the aircraft touches down.

I’ve had this game along time. Never played it as I didn’t kno much bwt flying. Still don’t but I’m slowly getting there with ur videos. I final found a airport and managed to land at it all thanks to you and ur videos. Keep it up

I have been watching so meany tutorials and this is the perfect one thank you for helping me on my first ever flight with a proper landing and line up to runway Im bad at landing iv only been playing for 3 weeks but thank u very much dude the best tutorial on ils iv LIKED AND SUBSCRIBED ✌️

[nikolajswierczbillerkjeldg]

Thank you very much sir! The navigation to the runway was an obstacle for me before, but now i am able to land perfectly centered with the runway! It was a gigantic help xD

The hardest part is intercepting the ILS.
1) Obtain the ILS frequency. Try to do this as soon as you obtain your landing runway.
2) On heading autopilot or GPS descent, insert the ILS frequency (should be a number, in example 109.50) in to the STANDBY for NAV 1 on your radio console. May vary by plane, but this is almost always the same for standard fixed-wing aircraft.
3) Switch GPS to NAV if not already in NAV (typically a button or switch around the autopilot dash/console)
4) When you hear a Morse code signal, you have intercepted the ILS frequency.
5) Around then, turn on “APP” or “Approach.”
6) Once about 20 meters above the ground, Disable the auto-pilot and auto-throttle, and land.

Note:
The pink diamonds may be skewed throughout the approach in the case of a heavy crosswind as NAV won’t compensate for the wind forcing you to do a crab-walk landing. In this case, though, I would avoid using autopilot once you are 2, 000 feet or less above the ground.

This doesn’t include specific directions on flaps, airspeed, altitude, how to use the in-flight GPS, or how to land. This is purely for using the ILS. Use what you normally would to land your plane. ILS will only take care of lining your plane up so you don’t have to.

Really good video I enjoyed it . The flight was great to see . Watching this I was really impressed . Keep up the great work you make some great videos !

Don't forget to take off the auto throttle switch when at runway and do set your auto brake before you land so you won't need braking with pedals unless you have to tweek brakes to stop.

I Learned alot of Things about Autopilot Because of you... :)
