As much as I would love to post this on the ES development forums, my account was deleted and I've not received a response to new registration :( I'm hoping someone here can pass along the relevant info.

 

I am flying the Citation X v2.0 Extreme. I'm having a number of problems with LNAV mode (among other things):

 

1. The aircraft tracks but does not cycle waypoints in NAV mode.

2. Once a waypoint is reached, the aircraft embarks on a corkscrewy journey on a meandering flight path orthogonal and away from the waypoint just reached.

3. Estimated distance to waypoint as reported in the FMS is never updated (almost like it doesn't know where the aircraft is geographically, only bearing).

4. Whenever I issue a DIRECT, I receive the message Check DMU (there is a post on this in the ES forum according to Google but I cannot read it)

5. Closing a discontinuity or line-selecting a waypoint in the flight plan and closing/moving it up yields strange results (perhaps related to issue #1) - especially in a DP where the last waypoint of the STAR is a vector; FMS seems to get confused about what the current and next waypoints are when I do this and i end up having to manually cull waypoints I've already passed one-at-a-time. The behavior is just bizarre.

 

I'm sure this is probably a well-documented phenomenon on the support forums, but they avail me little at the moment. FSUIPC is 4.852 (registered). I've already had to puzzle out the "bouncing airplane" and erratic Saitek throttle phenomenon *sigh*. Hoping someone here can help out before I deep-six this seemingly "uncooperative" aircraft.
