took me some months but thank you for this video....a nice handy tutorial. You havent lost your touch mate. Still so good at these!

This is the best X Plane tutorial I've ever seen! Thank Yo so much!

Thank you for taking the time to make this very informative video. I've been operating with MSFS since 1998 and finally making the switch over to something completely new and different. (mostly for the FlightFactor A350, better sceneries, and performance, IMO). This video is a huge help. Thanks again!

I’ve just found your channel and I’m new to x plane , your video on how to ,has been very helpful and I look forward to your next video. Graham .

This is the best tutorial. Thank you for this. If you have the opportunity could you instruct newbies as to how to set up communication with tower please.

Thanks for doing this. New to XP11 from P3d and still trying to find my way around.

This is exactly what I needed thank you.

Great video! Very useful, thank you.

I just got X Plane 11 and I didn't have an idea of what to do. Your tutorial helped a lot!!

Great guide. Im new to this, but loving it so much. Been on FSX for years. All those hours didnt prepare me for this lol Now to learn full start procedures so i can fly something besides the L5 😎

Hey, thanks for this tutorial it has been a big help!

Thanks for this. I'm brand new to X Plane and this is the best tutorial I've seen so far. I like your website, too. I Think I'm sub....In fact, I just did....

Thanks for X-Planing all this for us.

Best control setup in a flying simulation,so easy to use.

Great vid!

Got it downloading now. Been playing DCS. This should be fun.

Thanks man its helping me for more realism

Pretty good tutorial... thanks for sharing!

I recently switched to xplane from p3d and this helped me a bunch thank you alot

Ive got xplane 11 had it for awhile.very complicated so not played it much.This will help me keep the how to vids coming please helps alot.👍👍👍

Thanks for that video my friend, really helpfull!

I was really struggling, thank you very much

THANK YOU, MY MAN, YOU ARE THE BOSS

Great video! Thanks

I just wanted come back to the video that made me get addicted to flight simming… I was a complete beginner when I first watched this video 3 years ago… and now I have more than 2,000 flying hours. Last year, I learned about VatSim and now I am more involved in the flight simming world than I ever imagined. Thank you very much my dear sir. ❤️ Edit: I also watched your complete tutorial on the Zibo 737 back in the day, and that was the first ever aircraft that I completely learned how to fly… I still remember my first full flight… and I can never forget how happy I was after performing my first landing 🥹

best video ever keep up ur goodwork

Thanks this helped a lot 👍

This is really good way to start thanks for sharing

Great video, thanks

👏👏👏 Nice!!!!!! Thanks great work

Fantastic guide, love it! I've been flying Xp11 since its beta and I wish this video existed back then, would have saved me tons of time figuring things out. Also, X-Camera explains a lot why I suddenly lost my camera presets, at the time I started using I saved a bunch of views and took a while to pull them off, and when I started the game after a longtime they suddenly disappeared. They went out of their way to change the free version to force people to buy their premium version.

You are amazing! Thank you!!

Thinking about getting it, thanks!

i am going to be getting xplane 11 so these tips are really helpful

fantastic stuff...

Thanks man. that helped me a lot

Greetings from Roland Park, Baltimore. Thanks for putting this together!

Omg! You helped me A lot thanks!

Thanks for this video. I can finally start enjoying X-Plane 11👍

Best tut ever

I like who to videos, good job 😊

I have been using FSX for about 15 years. I downloaded XPlane 11 over a year ago but couldn’t seem to do what I could get from FSX ( with a lot of add ons I might add) and have been wanting to give it another go. So thank you very much for these tutorials etc. It really has inspired my get going with XPlane. I was surprised at some of the choice of add ons available.

Thx so helpful

Very good tutorial.

Really nice beginners guide to X-plane

Bc of this im subscribing rigth away

thankyou for sharing..

Appreciate the video, I learned about a couple of useful looking mods. However as a beginner the video wasn't as helpful as I'd hoped. It would have been great to see the start to end process of installing/setup the game, selecting a relatively simple plane such as the Cessna and actually showing us the bare minimum controls needed to takeoff and land the plane. I know NOTHING about flying a Cessna, but with a little time, trial and error I was able to be able to take off and land using only knowledge of the controls for brake, throttle, rudder, flaps and trim. As you can see from other recent comments here, a lot of beginners take one look at the complexity of a commercial jet control panel and run away. The Cessna may not be as "cool" but its much more fun to get a plane in the air and safely down again then spending 30 mins looking at settings and control dials.

My birthday is in like 2 days and I'm getting this, thanks a lot for the tutorial!!

Thanks for this, I'm gonna need this later on

great tutorial and you sound like kermit i love it

It’s a good video.

Ty bro

helpful bro

Thank you so much for this! I currently don't even have.a PC so I'm stuck to Infinite Flight on my iPad... I mean, love it but think it's time I take the next step. This video was very helpful!

Thank you

I am going to add XPlane once I get my new computer next month, I will be contacting you for help lol thanks for this great video!!

Brilliantl

Thanks. Was going for fs2020 but did not have a 3k gaming computer. Was worried about xplanes scenery, but can see with a bit if work it can be pretty good.

Thank you Kermit

Super bruh

subbed bro😊

I have 2,444.4 hours on FSX steam edition, no telling how many on the original version, and my computer went kuput. I finally got a replacement years later and it came in today. Steam had XP11 on sale for 30 bucks and I've really been wanting to try it.

THX

thanx for the replies

just watched the whole video, excellent presentation 👍🏻, i dont know if i can handle this lol, you make it seem so easy, but like i said, i am not tech savy, barely know how to use my iphone lol, my kids would probably so better lol

The jagged shadows can easily be solved with FlywithLua. It's a little fps eater but the result its a lot better.

Thank you so much. If you are sponsored, you just sold a flight sim bundle! If you're not sponsored, I think that should change (cough, cough...).

Senior multi-eng pilot but new to X-Plane11 so this tutorial and your web site are a big help...THANKS. Note: The link to X-Camera, in your recommended plug-ins list, is not working for me.

Extremely good tutorial sir! I'm looking to set up a good flight sim for my aging pilot father. I would appreciated any hardware/software suggestions you can give. Running on a 2015 iMac. Thanks. jj

Great Vid for a newbie (me) You mentioned you sometimes fly with a joystick instead of the yoke. In my build I'm making a 2 seat cockpit. How did you set up switching between the controllers? Thanks, Bob

Very helpful video. Thanks for posting this!

Feeling stupid when trying to understand the basics of flight planning, how VOR's working, difference between this and that etc. I need at very good tutorial, and I will look on yours now and see what I need to learn. I want to know how its in real life, and start with the cessna (how to plan a flight with that) and move on to bigger planes. But i do really need to understand the planning and all the things thats incorporated with that.

My system (a new build) has an i9 9900K 3.6 GHZ (overclocked to almost 5 GHZ) liquid-cooled processor, 64 GB of DDR4 RAM, a GEForce GTX 1080ti 11 GB graphics card, 2 seperate SSD drives, a 500 GB SATA that has Windows 10 Pro and a 1 TB SSD NVME that has X-Plane 11 installed on it. Add-ons tend to take up a lot of space but you'll need them in order to get something that looks decent. With my system I get an average of 35 to 70 FPS and that's with all graphics settings at high or maximum.

Thank you, is there any tutorial series you recommend ?

why isn't working on me?

Also can you tell me if the CH product flight sim yoke would work fine with xplane 11 or not?

You'd make a good Kermit voice

Great video for a newbie like me. Can you tell me if the ZIBOO mod cann be used on a Mac desktop using Catalina. It seems as though only. Windows users have input.

I've seen in various reviews that in installation there is no "key". That to use X plane you have to put disc 1 in the disc drive. Is this true?

Thanks so much for this excellent video. Very instructive. I’m having trouble getting my simulator to recognize my new joystick however. It currently still only works with my Saitech yolk. Any suggestions ?

I will download x plane 11 in this afternoon.

I brought the explain CD and I've got a computer and Yoke system is that all I need

So I have a question. Is there like an online mode, or global mode, where you play with others + ATC? Or is it exclusively solo?

I’m considering getting it with a new computer

Seems like I have to reconfigure joystick every time, what am I doing wrong?

thank you so much for helping me out, but I have one problem. I can't get my plugins to show up in x plane 11

What do you recommend for that airplane steering wheel or what it's called there. And what else do you need for it there

Anyone discord help me please i get do confused on the fmc would be extremely thankfull.

Im Back, wow the varjo aero vr really looks good IN X-PLANE. Im maxed out in msfs with rtx 3090 4.0 cpu ect. and all the tricks and fixes but still jitterery yikes. I tryed ms but really enjoy X-PLANE again

How do you get that ipad to the left of the plane cockpit with all those simple interactions? I want that, its not in the plane i have now..

Hey mate! I just got X-Plane 11!! Any suggestions for beginner yokes or side sticks would be awesome!

I am maybe gonna buy X-Plane 11 and swift from Infinite flight to X-plane 11.

Can a monitor play this with a HP 27fw Full HD 27" IPS LCD Monitor - White

Bro will the ski windshield effect work on xplane 11 11.53 update? ........coz its note showing any rain particles when i turn it to ski
