FSX Full autopilot and ILS landing tutorial (Basic) 

New version released today! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-0m86xCkmoRA.html

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

I actually enjoyed this tutorial. I learned quite a bit from it. No worries about the mistakes, I got what you were trying to do and executed it just fine. I tried it and it worked great! I know how to do an ILS approach now. Thanks for sharing.

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...

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.

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

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! :)

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

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 ✌️

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

This is a great instruction. I've flown the flight multiple times trying different weather and time settings. It's a good length to fly. I learned a lot from it. Thanks!!

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

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 !

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

Ay mate this tutorial helped me lots and made me discover things i never knew before. Wish you the best and i will definitely watch and await other vids

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

Awesome tutorial dude! Highly appreciated and the small mistakes you did wasn't bad because you pointed out what you should've done. The video is old but I really learned how to fly with the autopilot and how to use ILS. Also checked out your updated video and that one was also good! :)

Thank you so much DisabledGamer for this. I can finally understand how the ils decends automatically. You're awesome!

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

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.

Enjoyed this a lot, thank you, well explained and the errors kind of makes it more engaging, thanks again

Thank you so much! This tutorial was simple, yet very clear and easy to understand.

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

Best video on RU-vid!!! Thank you so much!

Thank you very much, thanks to your video I have just completed my first IFR landing. one of my best in a very long time

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

What a beautiful video it literally taught me everything that i wanted to know thnx and nice landing

This really helped me as a FSX beginner, many thanks for your tutorial.

Uploading a newer version soon, without mistakes

Thanks mate you gave Much better instructions than the other videos awesome!!

hey brother thanks for the quick video I really appreciate it. I tried a number of times on my own and totally f'd it up this time i actually got it. and dont worry about the haters if there are any we ve never done a video of an ils while doing an ils. Keep them coming and thanks

I now finally know who to use the ILS. Good demonstration, thanx!

Thank you for this great and Laidback tutorial Most are so Starchy like sitting in a lecture hall! Very helpful and informative. Thanks for taking the time to do this for we NEWBIES! :)

thanks i followed all your steps and landed perfectly in the center line and i bough about two weeks ago so i am still a beginner so this is my first landing and it was perfect

What an enjoyable ttutorial, not perfect, but it explains the basics really good! Thank you!

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

Thank you so much! This was very helpful for a newcomer to FSX!

thank you very much, i struggled to understand how to land with ils but you explained it well. nice video

Fast forward to 2022. Wow, thanks for the walk down memory lane. I still have the disks for MSFS Acceleration. I can't believe how much better the sim is now. 😮

Just getting back into FSX after some time away. I agree with other comments that this is the best no bs tutorial on ils and relevant autopilot settings for GPS routing on youtube. Would love it if you could do a VOR one in the default cessna using both NAV dials and autopilot. Most other videos I've found to be washy washy at best in comparison! Subbed!

thank you so much! very good explaining! :D:D

yo this video is very helpful man, thanks

Brilliant- Actually works including ils frequency. No morse code this time so will fly this again. A very good simple tutorial and enjoyed . Subscribing now . Lots of learning still to do so all good:-)

Great tutorial. landed my first jet safely (Bombardier CRJ700). PS: Hope you can fix the framerate in future videos. but this one is very helpful. 11/10

Yay thanks for the tutorial, now I can do professional flights 😀😀👍

That was a highly buttered landing... Realized the plane touched down only after seeing the nose come down... Amazing

best ils tutorial quick and easy this m8

Awesome job Sir.........love fsx !...thankyou

Best video on this very clear thanks!

Thanks for showing this to us! :)

Lovely video. hope to see some more.

this really helped me a lot

Best tutorial ever on fsx for ils landing

thrust shouldn't be idle until you are up on the runway not before reaching the runway, and reverse thrust must be activated the moment your landing gear hits the runway, nose can come down after R/T is on, no problem with that. GREAT VIDEO btw :)

this really helps, thanks!

Cheers for that mate. Now i have an idea about whats blinking and burping :) . I have definately been doing it the hard way... manual flight all these years!. Now i can have a coffee and a cigarette without hitting the pause button! . Cheers for sharing :)

Thanks that was good, your flight plan is so easy to do, I use X-Plane 10 on a Mac and have to use a FMC, nightmare.

Man you are just a charm !

Actually did a ILS manual landing in a real simulator(located near Schiphol) in very foggy circumstances. It's pretty hard to keep an eye on the screen, and also to keep an eye on the runway while you cant see it. But you have to cause if you dont see the runway at a certain height...than you have to make a go around. My years of experience in a PMDG 737 made it a lot easier, i knew what every single button did....PMDG did an awesome job. And the instructor was a real world Transavia pilot(NLD) what better compliment can you get than a pilot saying that you're talenten and should apply for a real pilot job. I got a nice paper from school, but sad enough it's not high enough to apply for it.

easy to understand and listen to.. well done

Thanks for the great explanation

very helpful and so easy to follow and understand, liked and subscried

helped me alot Mate, thanks!

good tutorial. i'm able to fly the airline missions pretty good but that's because they have someone giving you help, so when it comes to my own flight plans I get lost. thanks

Great video! Really helped! Funny as well! ha

thx it worked I had the smoothest and neatest landing I have ever done!

Thanks I landed my first ils landing cause of your vid cheers

Brilliant, wished lve seen this before my birthday treat of a visit to 737 simulator

Good video mate don't listen to all the moaners saying you did this that and the other wrong most of us realise that this video was intended to show people how to make an ILS approach

Great tutorial!

Helped out alot, thanks

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

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.

Hey mate thanks for the video

Your video is the best about ILS Landing thankyou and also you put the frequention in nav1 and do i have to put it also in nav2 (i have the PMDG 737-800)

This helped me a lot

i learned i suck at ILS approaches the tutorial was spot on i just need to get good

We don't use brakes only if its necessary. its only Reverse Throttle / Spoiler / and 45 Fully Flaps :3

Thanks for the lesson!

Are all the people who are saying his accent is bad stupid????!!!!! This guy had a great tutorial after i had watched 5 other videos i understood this one and i live in america and his accent was more than understandable. Thanks for the help DisabledGamer!!

best tutorial on this subject on YT. by the way what PC you running for fsx? specs... I wanna pinpoint the best PC, graphics card, ram all that jazz for running fsx in full graphics. I'm actually commenting on this video for a year ago it helped me with ILS, sold my pc since then and now gonna get a new one and started flying again.

thanks for the tips

Dude I take this game very seriously , but man I was laughing at how you shrug off the mistakes you made 😂 and yes I do know the thingy ma jiggy bibbly Bob 😂 10/10 for this vid bro

Thanks for excellent video, I learned a lot I am very new in this world so sorry for my very basic question, I am using FSX but I have never able to look around cockpit and touching keys , How did you you do that? I mean zoom, looking to the left and right and.... Thanks

Great!!

awesome video

Thanks for ur help :-)

LOL thanks. Way more entertaining than instructional.

Hi, thank you for the instructions! But where can you find the ''course'' in a b747?

Enjoyed that...

Nice video thanks for sharing. Just one question tho.. The purple square coming down the left side was that part of the GSI? (Glide Slope Indicator). Also how are you able to zoom in and around the cockpit like you do? Is it an addon for fsx? Best wishes from a wheelchair fsx pilot

Sweet! Thanks!

Thank u i learned much

Thnx, very good vid, and sry, one stupid question, is ils frequency always same?

great video

dude you hepled out like atot thank you

Very good job explaining how to do an ILS approach.Yoy basically held everyones hand,and guided them through it step by step.I dont understand what people are so anal retentive about.

if you put your runway heading into the course selector and ils frequency in when your on the ground before you depart, would it still work the same as doing it when your in the air before you land?

Now that i finally now how everything works in fsx, i think it is very very very easy
