  • What joystick and rudder pedals are you using?

  • @WigzellRM I have no pedals for now, but I use a similar device that acts like a rudder pedal. Nothing special. As for the joystick, it's Thrustmaster, can't remember the model.

  • @thelopespilot I have Saitek rudder pedals, not bad, but always afraid I might push too hard and break them. They add a lot to realism.

  • @WigzellRM Good! Some day I will get some. Looks like you're an experienced sim pilot, any though on my videos?

  • you were way off coarse and followed the coordinates for the wrong runway..... you should've been on coarse and led the autopilot correct ils freq and coarse for you and depending on the visibility you should've landed the plane manually on g/s intercept.

  • @MrUmairG I'm pretty sure I was on the right track. The approach was manual. In real life I would have made it automatic AP landing, but this is a simulator, that is why I tried this challenge.

  • O hey I just landed at this place today :), it was my first ILS landing that was actually successful

  • Nice landing there. I don't have any pedals myself and just use a Force Feedback 2 so the twisting action of the stick simulates pedals but pedals would be good.

  • @thelopespilot Not that much experience but I have tried to make my sim as realistic as possible. I have 2 screens and hope to add third. Your approach in real life for the weather in this video would have been CAT III on autopilot down to 50 feet. (I am an ex airline pilot). Keep it up. I'll look at the other videos in due course.

  • You should get these addons:

    -REX

    -FSPassengers

    -FDC Live Cockpit

    -Audio Environment X

    -Ultimate Airport Environment

    -Ultimate Night Environment

    -(Also try to fly always connected to VATSIM)

    Won't affect your FPS and will improve your flying experience A LOT

    Nice landing
