substantially I've the bow moved more or less 5/10 degrees on the left, with or without weather active, no difference.

I've upgraded airac, navdata too but no difference.

Any ideas guys ?

Could this be inadvertent rudder trim or controller calibration?

Have you got the latest magvar data .bgl installed from here: http://www.aero.sors.fr/navaids.html

yes, done, no difference :(

how can I completely reset the rudder?

If you have the full version of FSUIPC active, the weather conditions will be pre-set there on top of any default or add-on weather, and you can can calibrate all your controls and set key assignments in FSUIPC too.

I've had the same thing happen in FS2004 with the B737NG from PMDG.  The ND would show me way right of the flight path flying what appeared to be an arc from waypoint to waypoint.  Not seen it with the B747 from PMDG or the Level-D (both for FS2004), but haven't flown them for a while.  It got so bad one time I was headed west and the ND showed me pointed eastward.

The thing that fixed it for me was making sure the updated magdec.bgl file was in it's own scenery folder in Addon Scenery (not in FS9/Scenery/BASE/scenery), activated the way a normal addon scenery was, and placed in the number 1 priority above all other addon sceneries.

I'' try this one too, otherwise format c: 

Diego,

 

No need to reformat your C:\ drive.  After reading this thread and including my fix I went to FS2004 and flew the Level D, the PMDG B747, and the PMDG B737NG (all for FS2004, not FSX).  Of the three, the PMDG B737NG was displaying exactly the same symptoms as your Level D.  I was constantly flying an "arc" between waypoints.

Did some looking and found an old thread that indicated the magdec.bgl file, over time, has a tendency to corrupt itself...much like me in real life. :biggrin:

I have been reluctant to use Herve Sors navdata fix because it breaks the default FS2004 flight planner and I use that tool for a couple of aircraft that use that plan to input to the nav device I use...or whenever I use celestial navigation and I have to print a map of my route to plot star readings on (yes, celestial nav is possible in both FS2004 and FSX).

However, I got to thinking, surely his nav data includes a "new" magdec.bgl file (it does), so I downloaded his installer and ran it to a dummy FS2004 location so it wouldn't hurt my actual install.  Next I "threw away" the magdec.bgl file I explained about above and removed that entry from the addon scenery library.  Then I took his magdec.bgl dated December 2017 and placed it in the proper location FS9/Scenery?Base/scenery and have done three test flights, once with each aircraft, and they all show perfect routes and tracking in the nav displays.

Try that first...it worked for me.

too late :(

now run ok, many tks to all for support me 

Diego1958, others took the time to help you. Perhaps you should share what your fix was so others can benefit in the future. Not trying to be snippy but the information contained within forums like this are priceless. 

All the best,
