Nav mode won't engage RXP 750

[Feartheyankees 0]

Can't get the autopilot to engage "Nav" mode to track course with the RealityXP 750. I'm on the proper course intercept and have the GPS setup properly.

 

Thanks!

I'm having the same issue with the Flight1 GTN.

Have you checked  your selections in the Settings menu?  right-click on the upper edge of the GTN bezel to open the Settings menu.

Settings that may be necessary can vary some aircraft to aircraft.

Thanks for the response. After looking through that menu, it still doesn't work.

I don't have the bird yet but what is the source set to on the EHSI set to?  I mean usually the gtn has a VLOC/GPS for CDI...but maybe the aircraft has a FMS or VOR mode?

Found a workaround for now. If you program both the default FMS and the GTN it'll follow the GTN once you're in the air.

Alright I'll get this and check it out!

Yep indeed....the NAV button on AP won't even engage with FMS selected on EHSI and GPS mode on GTN 750.  I'll go digging in the panel cfg and send them a bug with a pic

Thanks Ryan. I'm having the same issue with both FMS and GTN Nav. Also, does anyone else's taxi / landing lights light up the VC?

...  with their version of the Primus 1000 avionics suite  is it now possible to save and load flightplans  ?

Are there any bugs with capturing altitude set  or any Autopilot functions ?  

Does it fly to waypoints outwith a flightplan and then able to  retrack the flightplan ?

Are the SIDs STARs working and can you alter them and the Flightplan without crashing the sim?

thanks for any info...

Primus is a "lite" version

AP seems ok actually (except NAV not working with Gtn 750).  FLC appears to function properly.  There are throttle detents...does this thing have FADEC?

I didn't test with FMS... I'd bet it's the same as their other fms equipped planes....so not great.

Yes

[ryanbatc 12,775]

In that case I'd say the FADEC is working.

Yes

Also you should buy this thing....need some nice airfile mods
