The Flight Sim Studios folk could use someone like you on their team, great explanation

You gotta like Embraer for their design decisions sometimes. Such an easy plane to manage in general. Great explanations, Etai 🙂

very thorough explanation, thank you for this!

Really nice video! Just recently got into flying the embraer in the sim and i love it.

hi Captain, May I ask which ERJ 175 add on did you buy? I bought Aerosoft ERJ 175 but so many botton and FMS page can not use.

This is Feelthere for Prepar3Dv4

Fantastic vid, thank you!. Question: How does VNAV Direct To work? Can you always compute a vertical path to any waypoint regardless of your current lateral or vertical modes? For example if you are in hdg mode due to ATC or weather can you compute a vertical path to the IF using vnav direct-to to have an idea of when to start descending?

Thanks for you reply! So for VNAV direct you'd have to be in both LNAV and VNAV modes active. Only then it can compute VNAV direct. It doesn't work in Feelthere, but you essentially make sure there is an altitude constraint (at only, no at or above/below). Copy said constraints, and paste it right back to the same spot, and activate. If withing the tolerance descent angle, it would simply start a descent to hit that Fix at the commanded altitude. Works beautifully and helps making the flight smoother with more comfortable descents when applicable.

@@crew-rest Awesome and thanks for replying so fast!. So if you are in hdg mode can you still do a direct to (LNAV) and direct to (NVAV), and then go back to hdg mode to have an idea of how to descend?

@@LuisArgerich you could, but once you go from LNAV to HDG, VNAV would turn off and default to PFA. But this FPA might actually exactly the FPA you need if you gave it a few seconds to stabilize...

That was the stupid thing the E jet would do. VNAV will only work in an LNAV mode. I fly the 737 now and VNAV will work in HDG SEL just fine. It will keep the previous FPA that VNAV was following when you select HDG on the Embraer.

thank you for the info! Did you try the X-plane version? Is that closer to the real thing system wise and hand flying? I'm currently using p3dv5

I tried the X-plane versions years ago. It was bad in every aspect. The P3D Feelthere Embraer is the best addon I'm familiar with at the moment.

Can you please tell me which sim are you using ? Msgs2020?

Is the limitation of 210 knots until 3000 ft or 6 miles a company limitation? If so, we just might fly for the same company…

It is, and quite possibly so! I've since moved on to another company that flies other airplanes to different parts of the world...

So the lights behind the buttons on the guidance panel don't work? That has been confusing to me for so long... is that due to the sim or are they activated in real E175?

Correct. They DO NOT work. In my previous airline, at least. They CAN work but this is another airline configuration thing. My airline elected to not have them work, to force the pilots to strictly monitor the system based on the readings of the FMA in the PFD, as people should do anyway.

Very nice ! Thank you for posting

What flight sim is this that has VNAV? MS Flight sim 2020 and Xplane 12 ERJ170 don’t seem to have all this capability for VNAV and FMS speeds.

This was Feelthere Embraer EJets v3 on Prepar3Dv4. It's systems were quite well modeled. However, I must say that the VNAV on the X-Craft Embraer for X-Plane 12 is pretty good!
