Course deviation indicator not following gps route

Featured Replies

Hello,

 

I'm asking help for my problem. In the HSI the course deviation indicator doesn't follow the route in my gps. I think the yellow  course needle should always point to the next waypoint (and show deviation) but now it doesn't move. I have the RXP KI525 and my gps is Mindstar's 430. I have selected gps as nav source from the mindstar gns430 CDI-button. Autopilot flies the route correctly as in gps  but the crs needles doesn't move. I would be very grateful if some could help me!

 

 

Thanks

You need to point the yellow course needle to the desired GPS course, by hand.

 

The KI525 does not do this by itself..

 

The CDI should then show the deviation.

 

As a comparison, how does it work, using the default FSX GNS500?

Doh! so that explanes it then! User bug..that's a classic. I watched aviatorPro vids from angle of attack and I was sure that the needles were moving automatically and couldn't find confirmation. But anyways Thank You for your reply!

An electronic HSI can be configured to automatically switch to a new waypoint,

but a manual HSI needs to be set for every change in course..
