Heading indicator is WAY off....

Featured Replies

I know this has been addressed before, but for whatever reason, I cannot seem to search the right keywords to find the answer here. My heading in FS9 is jacked up to the nth degree. Currently, I am flying at a hdg of 160, however my hdg indicator reads 041. Thats not a magnetic variation. That is an error in my FS. Im sure once I restart my FS, this problem will disappear. Ive seen it before. But is there any way to fix this? Any way to do it while it is running?After setting up a flight and firing up the active sky, squawkbox, flightplan this and that... It takes 20 minutes to quit and start over. Seems like there should be a fix to this to avoid this inconvenience.

Maybe your heading indicator in your plane is crazy? (I can't find a better way to say it) There is a keystroke for resetting the heading indicator. Check for "Heading indicator (restablish)". Well, I think it's that one, I have FS in Spanish so I don't know exactly. The default keystroke for this command is D. Try it and see if it cures the problem.Best regards from ColombiaLuis Miguel
