Hi from BeyondATC! Loved the stream, always great to watch professional pilots. We're always open to any comments on the ATC, love to hear if anything isn't the way it should be. Cheers!
It is OVERpowered for sure. I've heard (online) that real pilots cut power after lift off because in the event of a engine failure, one engine can pull you to either side because it's so powerful. In the checklist it seems to suggest to keep it full power but anyone would know that it does not need more than 70% throttle to climb 2000fpm and maintain its 140vy speed.
I’m using the piston version with the KLN 90b (recommended when you want full immersion and realism) of the duke. It’s a great plane, first I mainly flew the Fenix A320 and the switch to a high komplex plane was pretty difficult because the A320 is doing nearly every step for you. This video is perfect for basic operation with the duke. Thanks for it 👍🏽.
@@mcshiggitypilot5901 thank you for the feedback and for reminding us to take a look at Pilot Edge. We’ve been told to try it before and now we’ll definitely look into it.
We use TrackIR for in-cockpit head movements (as well as exterior). For the exterior drone-like footage, we're using the drone camera installed on MSFS2020. You use the "A,S,D,F" keys which control movement in the sim. To get to this camera, load up a flight in FlightSim and press "Insert" on your keyboard. This should be the default key to enable the drone camera.
What you're hearing is BeyondATC, which is a 3rd party add-on for MSFS. It uses AI-generated voices to interact with you during a flight. It works best when you pair it with Simbrief. Once you generate your flight plan through Simbrief, you open up BeyondATC and once it connects to the sim, it automatically pulls up your flight plan from Simbrief. Of course, you'll need to have your Simbrief linked in with BeyondATC. www.beyondatc.net/
Amazing plane. Can you tell me about the sound in the plane - i can hear the engine, starter and pumps very well. Did you increase this in the post-processing of the video or is it settings in MSFS? Thank you!
The sounds are genuine to the aircraft. Maybe check your sound settings in MSFS and make sure your engine sounds, misc sounds, cockpit sounds are turned up.
If you would have stayed in managed mode, the auto pilot would have brought you all the way to a point to where you could have turned off the autopilot and hand flown the rest of the way in.
So far. Everything you have explained here, will work on the Fenix. Difference is the checklists, and EFB. Start up is the same. You should explain the dots that are on when you are in managed mode. For the price, this is an outstanding aircraft.
After reviewing the manual, it seems like there is no direct way to reset the inspection date on the ETM itself. However, my best guess is to go to the Bendix RDR1150XL, go to the NAV page using the rotary dial on the upper right corner, and try repairing both Left/Right engines until both engine conditions are back up to 100%. This might trick the ETM into resetting the date since the manual states the date is “entered by maintenance technician”. Additionally, for the timer itself, once you arrive at the inspection date on the ETM, use the clock function buttons to the right and see if they interact with that page. We’ll have to try both of these methods later to verify it ourselves but it’s the best shot we can suggest! Let us know if this works for you.
I’d start by asking these following questions to try and pinpoint what could be going on. 1) Did you start the flight and actually go through the boarding? 2) Did you make sure the parking location you’re at has the staircases disabled option NOT clicked? I’m assuming you’re on a ramp/apron with no jetways so verify those settings. 3) if you’re using a 3rd party add-on scenery, make sure the ICAO code for that airport is DISABLED in the GSX Config app. I believe you can find a button on the config that says “Exclude 3rd party”. It sounds counterintuitive but it’s one of the typical reasons you don’t see PAX or jetways moving. Feel free to drop some more details here so we can try and figure out what’s causing this issue.
Nice video.... I own all BKSQ planes except of the C208 and the Dukes. The Duke is beautiful, but somehow doesn't get me. I hope BKSQ will bring the tablet features to the other planes.
We haven’t tried the C208 either, but I can only imagine it is nothing short of amazing. We think the Duke (both variants) and the TBM850 are Blacksquare’s greatest hits in our opinion. If you get a chance to, try either of the Duke variants out. It is such a joy to fly and it is our number 1 pick so far for GA aircraft.
@@thatflightsimchannel it's more a Duke problem. I owned the Duke for XP11 and it was nice but somehow I couldn't get into it. The TBM850 is my BKSQ favourite plane.
@@Boradumir starting up the TBM850 from a cold and dark cockpit is one of the most satisfying experiences within MSFS. Thanks for the comments 🤙🏼keep following us, as we want to engage with our followers more often to get ideas and feedback for our next videos.
Glad I found you. Not new to flight sims but it’s been a while…completely brand new to MSFS and couldn’t even find the ‘AP’ button to turn the damn thing on…after spending a while just figuring out what plane I was in. Apparently the COWS is newly standard with the anniversary edition. My 2 cents on your tutorials - be very deliberate with your control clicks and keystrokes. Autopilot theory is valuable of course, but noobs like me still getting used to the consoles and interface need you to be very clear on every step you’re taking, including which button you’re hitting…don’t blaze through that stuff.
Thank you so much for the feedback! Its really appreciated! I think this our first autopilot tutorial that we came up with. I think we have improved, but I will definitely keep what you said in mind for the next tutorial. Id say our best one so far is the Duke autopilot tutorial. Feel free to watch it and give us feedback on that one! Thanks for the support!
Man I gotta say, I've watched a lot of tutorial videos over the decades. Your conciseness and tempo is fantastic. I flew this bird earlier this evening and I wasn't sure I was getting all I could out of the autopilot. Your video was exactly what I needed. Keep it up, you're excellent at what you do
@@PLACEonPLATE wow we really appreciate that! At times we wonder if we are being able to bring the information in an informative way but not overload the viewer with too much crazy information that will confuse someone. At the end of the day we just want everyone to enjoy the bird and feel that level of satisfaction of having the plane do what you want it to do. Thanks again! We will definitely keep up with the tutorial series for more aircraft
Thanks for your thoughts. I have a powerful gaming system and have had GSX PRO for probably 2 years, and it has been a love/hate relationship. For the example, for the last several weeks, when I click on it in the sim, it blinks on for a second and then disappears. I update it frequently and the forums on FSDream Team seem to say similar problems with that same phenomenon with no apparent or easy solutions. Your video makes me wish that it worked better.
I've experienced similar issues. Sometimes all you have to do is go to your desktop while the sim is running, go to your toolbar on the bottom right, click the up arrow, and find the icon that says "restart Couatl". This restarts the software and usually does the trick. Let us know if this helps and thanks for dropping the comment.
@@racepnd really?! We suggest you go on your Nvidia App/control panel, and optimize the graphics settings according to what it recommends. With the 4090 and i9 you shouldn’t have any problems whatsoever. Also, remember 3rd party add-ons (GSX, scenery, etc) it really enhances the quality of the entire world around you in the sim. We’ve been meaning to share settings and we will soon so you can compare and adjust accordingly. Thanks for stopping by 🤙🏼
a little hard to know which step you are having trouble with, if youd like join our discord and show us what the issue is that you are having. Did you verify on your tablet that your GN750 is activated? We'd love to try and help you trouble shoot his.
You'll have to purchase a license in order to run it. We use the PMS GTN750, found here: pms50.com/msfs/ There is a free version you can download through that link but it'll be limited in features
Thanks for the feedback. Keep in mind this video was uploaded for pure entertainment rather than diving into the Duke's systems in-depth. Check out our other Duke videos which are formatted as tutorials for a more serious take on this great aircraft!
Not too shabby indeed 👍🏼. Had to watch this again 😊. Got em both yesterday and took this exact Grand Duke for a quick pattern at St. Barths right after installing. Probably the best handling GA aircraft in the sim for me.
