The "VOR Orienter"

- Here's a little self-made tool that will help anyone struggling to answer FAA-type VOR questions on their knowledge exams. This tool offers the added advantage of training the student's mind to think in terms of how the VOR works. No, it's not used in the airplane. It's intended only for ground-type knowledge test questions. More tools at: www.rodmachado.com.
I gonna sleep peacefully tonight without VOR nightmare...
Once again, Rod, you have hit a home run. The VOR Orienter is one more reason to continue singing your praises to my student pilot friends. Your love for aviation, generosity of spirit, and creativity consistently shine in your videos. THANK YOU!
I use this Orientation guide in my ground school and it is a lifesaver! Rod’s explanations here make it so easy to understand!
Finally a simple way to understand thank you.
Finally, a VOR video that explains it clearly! Thank you! I will use this if needed for my written tomorrow!
As always, pure, simple genius, thanks.
Huge thanks to you for producing these types of vids. I am based in the UK and as a middle aged PPL student in my early stages of training, I am finding the technical side quite challenging to get to grips with at times. Your explanations are making digesting the wordy and complex technical information alot easier to understand.
This is literally the most useful freaking video about this topic that I've ever seen. 10/10! Thank you!!
Wish I would have had this tip when I took my written. It's great, and I'm going to pass it along. Thanks
Wow! What a great little nifty thing for those VOR questions on the instrument exam, that drive most people crazy! I did my instrument rating a couple years back, and this would have been a GODSEND for those mind-bending VOR and HSI questions! 😁 In any case, I'm now in the process of becoming a CFI / CFII, and will definitely use this to help my future instrument students! THANK YOU Mr. Machado! 😁 ...Oh, and I live and die by that "airspace memory aid" of yours!
Your video on VOR orienters is the most straightforward explanation on youtube. It took too long to find your channel, but glad I did. Thank you!
You sir, are absolutely genius. I wish I would have known this a few weeks ago when I took my written. I passed, but would have done better with this training aid for sure!
Are you an angel? You have to be. WOW. Thank you.
Thank you so much. This tool is fantastic. You've hit the nail on the head.
This helped in so many ways I can’t even explain it. Thank you so much.
this was perfect. ive watched so many videos and was still lost. this is the ONLY thing that helped
I am getting back into flight instructing (CFI CFII MEI) after a long time. I kept my CFI ticket but was not teaching. I got my self current and now have two students Pvt getting Inst rating, CFI getting Instrument add on. So I need to teach or teach how to teach to someone else. I wanted some refreshers,
Even easier method is to remember that you are Always at 'From Radial" (outbound) in respect to VOR. (direction does not matter). When going towards VOR simply add 180 to your existing "FROM" radial. With this concept I was able to figure both questions out in 5 seconds each without having to draw anything. And I am not even a student pilot or aviator But I love to read IFR material. :))
One of the best tips I got during my Private Pilot training was this training aid. Thanks again for sharing. This one and the Pyramid for learning airspace. :-)
Great explanation. Going for my student pilot.
