April 20, 20206 yr Hello, I recently purchased the VirtualCol Do328 from SimMarket ("purchased" as part of a free promotional), and I cannot figure out how to land using the ILS system with it. I tune NAV1 to the corresponding frequency, but how do I change the gauges to get the right one to see the glideslope and other indicators? I"m also having a problem with takeoff procedures, and making sure my plane gets in the air (do I have too much flaps or not enough, etc.). THanks for your thoughts and help!
April 20, 20206 yr Administrators Did it come with a manual? Charlie AronAVSIM Board of Directors-ADMIN/Moderator-RegistrarJust going to run a Chromebook and not upgrade to a Windows computer. Too many problems with the new Sims! 😱Trying to keep peace and harmony and the will of Landru on the site seems to be a full time job!
April 20, 20206 yr Author It did, but the manual does not include information on how to change the Radio Magnetic Indicator to anything for landing. I did find a before takeoff checklist, so maybe that will help.
April 20, 20206 yr Administrators If you have NAV1 tuned to the runway's proper ILS freq and you are hearing the ILS MORSE CODE, when in range, I would think you should get something like I show, on the display if your airport ILS HAS a Glideslope and you have the APR button engaged.

April 20, 20206 yr Author So those arrows are the glide slope? OHHHH. Ok. Thank you! For takeoffs, the manual I have says one step of flaps, 12 degrees, before takeoff, but I can only manage a takeoff at full speed (two of the engine dials are red) with no flaps.
April 20, 20206 yr Administrators On your numpad 10-key you may need to press 1 a couple of times to set elevator trim. There should be no need for red engine dials. Flaps should be used for takeoff.
