September 26, 200916 yr I am flying a flight from FMMI to OMDB in the MD-11F. First waypoint off of FMMI is GATLA, just over 100nm distance. Take off went well, I have DEP Procedures as NO ALTITUDE RSTR. In my nav display and in the RC4 readout in show test GATLA is 045 deg and closing. All of a sudden, RC4 starts its complaining that I am off course, turn to 075 deg until .... Again, the RC4 display in ShowText showed me on the correct heading with waypoint GATLA as my waypoint. What would cause this? After getting admonished for the 3rd time I just bagged RC4 :( and decided to finish the long flight in quiet mode.I use RC4 on all my VA flights, and this has not happened to me before.FSX SP2, across a network running RC4 ver 4.3.3845.Joe Joe Lorenc

September 27, 200916 yr Author i'm guessing you missed a DP checkpoint. you have to be within 2.0 miles of each one.Well I mentioned in my post, First waypoint off of FMMI is GATLA, just over 100nm distance. as well as: In my nav display and in the RC4 readout in show test [text] GATLA is 045 deg and closing.. GATLA was still 80-100 miles away at that point, on my current heading (same heading as RC4 text in ShowText), not the 75deg I was told to turn to. Joe Lorenc
