Locked in Slew

[shermank 166]

I am using Nav 4.5 with fs2k2. On those rare occassions where I want to move my aircraft from point A to point B via the FSNav, I find myself in slew mode when I come back into the FS screen. When I hit the Y key to get out of slew, it releases for a moment, but then goes write back into slew mode. There is no way out, except to reboot. Has anyone else had this experience, and if so, what have you done to eliminate it... thankssherm

You just have to hit the y key a few times then it will stop. Takes me about 5 attempts at hitting the "y" key before it finally settles down ;-)

That is just the way the "goto location" stuff works in FSNav. You are not locked in slew mode, you are simply impatient. FSNAv will start slewing at high speed and then at a very low speed until your plane has axactly reached the target location. Then it will get back out of slew mode by itself. This can take up to 30 secs though. At least that is the way it works on my system.Alex
