G1000 Autopilot Vertical Speed vs Flight Level Change for Climbing | Real C172S Pilot | MSFS2020

With the G1000 avionics autopilot system, as pilots we have a couple of options for climbing. Vertical Speed (VS) and Flight Level Change (FLC). In this video I demonstrate why I use FLC for climbing and not VS. Don't get me wrong, VS is safe to use for climbing, however you need to be careful when using VS to climb. If your not paying close attention to your airspeed as you climb, the autopilot may stall your aircraft.

In some older autopilots, VS is the only option for climbing or descending.

I hope you got something out of this video. Thankyou for watching.
