July 18, 201015 yr I was running a gps-driven autopilot route, and returned to the computer to find the plane in a very wide sweeping arc, having veered off course from the flightplan...Any idea what would cause this?The autopilot selector still indicated GPS.Thanks,Andrew H e l p k e e p A V S I M f l y i n g

It sounds like it missed a waypoint. Jay
July 18, 201015 yr Author Not sure, but the autopilot was doing all the flying so it shouldn't have missed the waypoint... unless it fell asleep or something! :) H e l p k e e p A V S I M f l y i n g
July 18, 201015 yr Understand your question probably cannot be answered, given the information. What route? Did you try a different plane on the same route? Any add on scenery for the general area?I ask the latter because I was working on an airport modification and ended up with all the approach data being mangled. There wans't any work done on the approaches to cause them to be mangled, but that's how they ended up.
July 19, 201015 yr Author Route was N14 > HARRS > PARKE > PEO.Stopped tracking just before PARKE. Nothing scientific, I just wanted to time the route.thanks,Andrew H e l p k e e p A V S I M f l y i n g
