Hello,
I’m new to this game and purchased the pro version yesterday. I just need some help understanding how to use autopilot during long-haul flights. Whenever I attempt a long flight, the plane keeps stalling and then crashes when I’m not looking. Also, do you have any suggestions on how to quickly reach level 2 or 3 so I can play with more players and experience ATC rules?
I also had this struggle when I started playing infinite flight
You gotta set your altitude, speed, and heading, and then click it, then the VS shows how many feet you climb per minute, you click that and it will ascend for you, and when you have a FPL, you click LNAV and the plane will turn by itself, but when you start your descent, you press VNAV and the plane will descend on its own, but you still have to control your speed, but yeah it’s really simple once your understand it.
Hope this helps, have a great day! :)
BTW this was on solo so don’t really set your speed to 320 at 2000 feet
Sounds like when you are climbing too high for your weight - have a look at this profiles guide - it gives appropriate cruise altitudes for each aircraft:
You could also use a flight planner such as Simbrief to give appropriate altitudes.
Thank you for the feedback and your help. I will try to check out the link. Have a great day
Thank you for the help. I will try this out now as the feedback was really helpful especially with the picture as well. Have a great day.
This made sound weird, but farming landings. Go to airports with more than 1 runway, and do touch and goes (casual, oc) After that, just do a medium haul flight to get to grade 2
