I personally don't like the default spoilers. They go up way to slowly and they shouldn't all go up at the same time or speed. The freeware SWA 737-700 has some of the most realistic ones I've ever seen.
@ultramssr You choose! : ) go in on settings, controls and buttons (I think it's called like that) then scroll down till you find ''spoilers'' and choose change/ new assignment, press the button you want to activate spoilers with and finally!!............... click ''OK'' and your done! =D
Press Shift + 4 (or shift + any other keyboard number depending on the plane you fly)
All shift + 1,2,3,4,5, combinations opens aircraft panels.
One of them should be engine controls. Left to the engine throttles a level should be present. Which is the speedbrake lever (spoilers)
Then can be set to *idle (lever is idle when set to top) or max (level to the bottom) or somewhere in between. If the letter is set just below top you should set it to a small angle.
This is a great video. Very thing he tells you in this video is true. I love your videos, i'm a real world pilot, that has flown for United for about 23 years now, I have flown every thing from a 717 to a 787, even a 747 about 20 times, as captain. I love your videos because what you say is mostly TRUE!!!! Thanks you for the best FSX videos out there!!
Boeing also says not to activate Thrust reversers in flight due to the non essential training criteria for professional pilots. But US Air Force Pilots its a whole different ballgame. I have done it often. Combat landings, in the real environment, require a hot approach and rapid decent, requires both TR's and Spoilers at the same time and to be deployed in flight.
Deploying spoilers in flight with landing flaps configured is prohibited. As you can see in min 1:17, the flaps are right under the spoilers, and by deploying them with flaps down creates a hole on the airfoil, decreasing dramatically the lift. I repeat: not me, BOEING prohibits this form of operation (which you actually used on 2:22)
I know it's a flight sim, and the physics of the plane depends on the manufacturer, but let's try to keep it real ;)
The only thing that is prohibited in flight is the ground spoilers being deployed. The flight spoilers are activated not only by the speed brake lever but also the aileron control system via the spoiler mixer. The spoilers are numbered 1 to 12 on a NG 737 from left wing tip to right wing tip. Spoilers numbers 1, 2, 5, 6, 7, 8, 11 and 12 only activate on the ground. Spoilers 3, 4, 9 and 10 are known as flight spoilers and work both as speed brakes and for roll control.
In addition, IMO, as pilot, spoilers disrupt the airflow over the airfoil and help ground the aircraft at touchdown, leaving it less susceptible to crosswinds. Full flaps gives/requires a very steep angle of attack at touchdown. This means that you spend a lot of time in ground effect bleeding off airspeed, it leaves your passengers in for a rough flight that they’re not use to…
It comes with 4 suction cups which can be attached to the bottom of the stick. You must put a cup in a hole and rotate it. I think those holes can be used to fix the stick but that could take some work. I hate suction cups so i use a lap attachment from a genius wheel to fix the stick to an old speaker cabinet so it is fully fixed and at the right height not at the mouse/keyboard height Hope this can help!
@commandosolo2009 You can't prevent it just keep the plane centered by using your yaw control (rudders) this is normal especially in a single prop engine aircraft cause the rotation of the engine.
@secret8440 cant I reduce it somehow, like moving straight for a few meters before takeoff? And If both engines have the same RPM and power, I think it goes straight dont you think.
@secret8440 Jets I mean. no buttons, which I'm about to discard the whole set of Genius F16 for a more decent X52 HOTAS, which has lots of positive reviews. Check my HECA-OLBA vid. you'll see how the AF1 jerks to the right and left during taxi. I'm talking about Jet engine aircrafts mate.
@commandosolo2009 I just saw your vid but i cant notice the problem. But if taxing at low speed the plane jerks side to side it is a device problem. You can increase the "dead zone" of the rudder axis until you got the x52. Actually i own a saitek x 52 and it is a very good product very precise axis. The only problem i got was making space for the device at my desktop lol it is bigger than you think!. I dont know why looks smaller at pictures or vids :P
@secret8440 I think I'll wait it out.. I'm getting my saitek by holidays in december. I cant wait for DCS blackshark or FSX cuz its gonna be some serious business.. Now that you've mentioned you own a x52, does it have screw holes for fixation or is it a suck cup?( like those things you wet and they stick to glass the best). All the best and thanks for your help.
@wethenerds2 You have to ARM the spoilers before touch down to be automatically deployed SHIFT+/ by default i think But take care with this landing the Learjet 45 cause it make to pitch up and lift off again :P Wait for the nose wheel to touch down then manualy deploy spoilers. This is because the speed brake is located at the bottom of the fuselage. But in a "common" aircraft you should land with the spoilers armed not just for stop the plane faster but to keep the plane "sticky" to the rw
Yes, wasn't there a AA Boeing 757 That was using speed-brakes, and then the pilot entered the wrong way-point into the computer, so the auto-pilot began turning the plane to a different heading, and then they were heading for a mountain. Because of the ignorant pilot, the speed-brakes remained extended, and when they tried to pull up from the mountain....... they couldn't.
RIP All of the people who lost there lives aboard that flight....
Nice tutorial! Very realisic too, and good plane choise for this demonstration. There is just one little thing, you are talking just a little bit too fast.
the wingtips on the plane generate more lift. apparently it can create the same amount of lift as a doubling the wing size, thats what i heard anyway :)
@naturespirit14 The Winglets increase wing efficiency. They don't generate their own left. They just prevent wind vortices that produces lift-induced drag.
F-15Cs seem to use spoilers during approach\ though which I believe is very strange but maybe its because its a coherently unstable aircraft that it may be able to exit the approach at a quicker time.
Reverse thrust: Bring the thrust all the way down, then keep bringing it down until the engine cowling folds back or slides back (jet aircraft) with turboprops the propellers just spin in the opposite direct but those planes are so light weight that most modern runways don't require them.
Wait until the nose gear hits then throw em on, otherwise the nose gear will come down like a hammer. Long as you're not going too fast and don't suspend the nose gear too long.
You can't use spoilers and speed brakes when you are in the air. You need to use it when you landed. If you use it when the plane is in the air the can brake and the airplane will crash
i usually deploy my spoilers to the full just as the nose hovers over the start of the run way just before touchdown is this ok? i am usually only going around 150kts at this time in B737
No, it's a huge no - no in flying to deploy speedbrakes before all gear have touched down, as they cause rapid descent and very rough landings. In FSX you should have plenty of runway to land it without speedbrakes. Although if you're at 150 knts and trying to lose speed, you reall should just go around. But still a BIG no - no for speed brakes before full touchdwon.
Well do u guys now what to press on for speedbrakers cuz i dont not know what to press and when im landing i have to pause put it on from the cookpit and then keep on tell me please what to press on the keyboard
Shift+/ arms the spoilers (speedbrake). This will make the spoilers come up when the main gear touch the ground. Just plain / makes the spoilers go down. I don't know what makes them go up.
To activate your spoilers you hit the '/' its the key with the ?(question mark). Reverse thrust you activate it by holding down F2 key. Make sure your Throttle is down all the way.. Thats how you activate them.
i use / in flight simulator hor spoilers...but theres apanel were u find the gps and were the flaps and brakes levers are an there should be one for spoiler/airbrakes.
you speak really fast and as though as you were inside an airplane, so it gets hard for people from other countries (outside the US) to understand what you're saying =/
could you do a quick tutorial on how to add scenery on fsx because there are loads for adding aircraft but none I could find for scenery and it would be much obliged
I have a question regarding the captain sim 757-200. I need to know the speeds for an approach from 30nm out from the airport. I also need to know at what speeds do I need certain flap degrees down. I seem to flare up to much during landing or point directly down. thnx
rico6297 i have the regular fsx and my friend has the deluxe and the only thing that is better about the deluxe that i have seen is the deluxe had a few more planes and variations of them
Atleast they are very handy during desent to minimize the desent speed if your not so good in planning distance and so on. Thanks again, even if I new this one from before many others will get use of it.
Good and clear explanation yet again sir. I on the other hand flew for quit some time beliven rthat we shouldnt use speedbrakes/spoilers during flight,landing but only after tuchdown. This wrongly knowledge I caught up from a other "tutorial" producer and first after I had a chat with a real life pilot I got a haleluja experience ,o).
left spoliers up, right spoilers down. right spoilers up, left spoilers down. All spoilers up. inbord up, inboard down, outboard up outboard down. All spoilers down...can anyone guess where that is recited? If I had 10 bucks for every time I said it....
why when you show how ppl do stuff wrong u have 2 do everything wrong and make it worse. like with using spoilers you just nose up all the way instead of adding more engine to make it look dumb lol 5*
i havnt got flight simulator yet but ive watched all of ur flightX videos ive learned a alot i play it at a friends house some time thanks cessna learned alot from videos.
well. i saw this on Crashes that Changed Aviation, or something like that. But i'll believe the speedbrake story. Except the only thing is that a computor error gave him a wrong approach leading to the mountains.
China Airlines flight 605 overshot the runway while attempting to land at Kai Tak, it was a 747-400 and the weather was bad, the runway was soaked, and the captain retracted the spoilers reducing brake performance and it slid off the runway, many other factors but the retraction of spoilers was a huge cause.
American Airlines flight 965 crashed when it flew into a mountain on approach into Cali, the pilot heard the GPWS and began GPWS escape, but forgot that speed brakes were deployed. B757-200
I thought the cali one was because he heard the GPWS. but GPWS only monitors the gorund from firectly under the plane. When he started the emergency climb, the mountain became suddenly to steep for GPWS to know since it only monitors whats below not ahead. But now today they changed that error. But im pretty sure it wasnt because of speed brakes
When you need to slow down faster than normal and when you need an extra rate of decent and don't want to gain much airspeed in doing so. Usually, for most flight paths, it isn't common to use them as the approach gives you enough room to slow down and get down before the final approach phase and into the landing.
What he means is when the aircraft touches down if you have speed brakes armed, they will automatically deploy on the ground to slow the plane down . You are right though on final approach they should not be used.
There is a position on the speed brake lever called "Armed" When placed in this position the spoilers will deploy on touchdown on of the main landing gear. Note though, that it's main function when used this way is to assist braking by increased drag over the wings. It only uses the spoiler flight controls, as an airliner doesn't have an independent speed brake.
Your videos are very informative but I have a hard time understanding you because of variation in voice dynamics. Please try to enunciate and not let your voice drop off to a grunt/whisper at the end of a sentence. The last part of a sentence is just as important as the first. You probably don't realise this so I bring it as a suggestion.

Hello FSX teacher, I just need to learn some things.
Which one bottom for I can use Spoilers?
I start to learn it this week and I improve so fast!

could you do a quick tutorial on how to add scenery on fsx because there are loads for adding aircraft but none I could find for scenery and it would be much obliged

Hey bud.
I have a question regarding the captain sim 757-200. I need to know the speeds for an approach from 30nm out from the airport. I also need to know at what speeds do I need certain flap degrees down. I seem to flare up to much during landing or point directly down. thnx

Srry but a real pilot arm the spoilers before landing!
so when you touch the ground. Speedbreakes goes up by itself

is flight simulator 10 the deluxe?anyway is the deluxe better than flight simulator 10 if its not?thank you for whoever gonna give me the answer.

rico6297 i have the regular fsx and my friend has the deluxe and the only thing that is better about the deluxe that i have seen is the deluxe had a few more planes and variations of them

It works in the same way, it provides more traction on the wheels at high speeds. ;)

Atleast they are very handy during desent to minimize the desent speed if your not so good in planning distance and so on. Thanks again, even if I new this one from before many others will get use of it.

Good and clear explanation yet again sir. I on the other hand flew for quit some time beliven rthat we shouldnt use speedbrakes/spoilers during flight,landing but only after tuchdown. This wrongly knowledge I caught up from a other "tutorial" producer and first after I had a chat with a real life pilot I got a haleluja experience ,o).

Thanks for your comments and feedback!

@perberge No, you can use the speedbrakes just prior to landing but only by a little bit. When you land they can go all the way out.

left spoliers up, right spoilers down. right spoilers up, left spoilers down. All spoilers up. inbord up, inboard down, outboard up outboard down. All spoilers down...can anyone guess where that is recited? If I had 10 bucks for every time I said it....

why when you show how ppl do stuff wrong u have 2 do everything wrong and make it worse. like with using spoilers you just nose up all the way instead of adding more engine to make it look dumb lol 5*

well. i saw this on Crashes that Changed Aviation, or something like that. But i'll believe the speedbrake story. Except the only thing is that a computor error gave him a wrong approach leading to the mountains.

I only use speedbrakes/spoilers either to descend or after touchdown.

China Airlines flight 605 overshot the runway while attempting to land at Kai Tak, it was a 747-400 and the weather was bad, the runway was soaked, and the captain retracted the spoilers reducing brake performance and it slid off the runway, many other factors but the retraction of spoilers was a huge cause.
American Airlines flight 965 crashed when it flew into a mountain on approach into Cali, the pilot heard the GPWS and began GPWS escape, but forgot that speed brakes were deployed. B757-200
1DCEproductions 2 years ago
I thought the cali one was because he heard the GPWS. but GPWS only monitors the gorund from firectly under the plane. When he started the emergency climb, the mountain became suddenly to steep for GPWS to know since it only monitors whats below not ahead. But now today they changed that error. But im pretty sure it wasnt because of speed brakes

under what circumstances would you use speed brakes mid-flight?
bobebobebob 2 years ago
When you need to slow down faster than normal and when you need an extra rate of decent and don't want to gain much airspeed in doing so. Usually, for most flight paths, it isn't common to use them as the approach gives you enough room to slow down and get down before the final approach phase and into the landing.
guy014 2 years ago
What he means is when the aircraft touches down if you have speed brakes armed, they will automatically deploy on the ground to slow the plane down . You are right though on final approach they should not be used.

How do they come up automaticaly?
coolman17701 2 years ago
no, you have a switch to turn it on
luketoon400 2 years ago
There is a position on the speed brake lever called "Armed" When placed in this position the spoilers will deploy on touchdown on of the main landing gear. Note though, that it's main function when used this way is to assist braking by increased drag over the wings. It only uses the spoiler flight controls, as an airliner doesn't have an independent speed brake.
tf51d 2 years ago
you have to put autobrakes on max.
DunderMifflinpeople 2 years ago
There is a sensor in the gear mechanism which when it detects weight, it deploys the speed brakes when and if they are in the armed position.

Your videos are very informative but I have a hard time understanding you because of variation in voice dynamics. Please try to enunciate and not let your voice drop off to a grunt/whisper at the end of a sentence. The last part of a sentence is just as important as the first. You probably don't realise this so I bring it as a suggestion.
