A tutorial covering basic autopilot operation in the Antonov AN-225 Mriya in Microsoft Flight Simulator. We cover auto-throttle, vertical speed modes, course modes, and do a little demonstration flight to show them in action.

Thanks so much for this, also I will say that NAVIG mode has worked perfectly for me to follow the GPS flight plan. I haven't tried ILS yet, but I've seen others on KZfaq successfully doing it.

Hey just a quick one that will explain the heavy rotation. All take offs must be done full flaps. Seems odd but it's what they did in the real one.

Yes - 75% flaps works well too.

Hello, just a comentary on the video at 1:38, in the tablet options you can change the rate from 1s to 100s so it is way faster

A little tip, you can change the rate of the altitude knob to 100, or you can leave it at 1, and when you want to do big changes, click and hold down LMB at the knob then drag your mouse cursor horizontally. Right is up left is down, you will see the knob be turning at super speed giving you a lot of increments in a short time, while keeping the scale to 1 so you can be precise with your altitude. Same goes to the speed knob

I've had some luck flying in Nav mode, best suggestion I can provide is to intercept the magenta line on the GPS as good as you can before you engage the nav hold mode. Flew from Hostomel to Zurich hands off until the approach, where I took back over flying using Course hold and aiming the heading bug while I focused on the descent.

Hello, i got the AP to follow the GPS (i havent try Approach yet) the trick is to change the "AP VOR heading select" which is the first knob to the right, and selecting I select "APK1" and on the AP Source Select" i have "NAVIG" it follows the GPS normally

It has approach mode. The final option (going clockwise) on the course switch. You would need the ILS frequency tuned in behind the pilot, and the HSI switched to landing mode.
