MSFS has a mind of its own

Recommended Posts

I do not know what happened yesterday I was flying from Texas to San Francisco on two separate flights. Both flights were ILS landings.  First leg went fine and dandy other than the lineup on the runway was about 2 degrees off but the approach and glide slope were good.  After I landed I took a little break, never shutdown the sim.   

Sat back down setup my flight for another ILS landing  everything looks good to go 

ZERO ATC traffic...complete silence

I take off engage AP   (good)

Engage FD  (good)

Engage NAV  (not good)   plane takes off on its own path and doesnt follow the gps at all, so I take over the flight and use my HDG to get the plane back on track

So in a nutshell  NAV and ATC somehow went SPLAT and no longer are working ...any ideas?

Remember the flight before everything was great, I have rebooted several times and tried 3 flights in a row after this failed attempt and no love with those 3 either (the exact same issues)

Thanks in advance.

That's bizarre.  The only time I have had this happen when I had inadvertently changed the navigation mode off of FMS (TBM930/G3000) so when I clicked the NAV button nothing happened.  I have had mixed results w/ coming in to an arrival airport, shutting down the TBM930, take a break and start a new flight plan from within the MFD's flight planner.  Sometime all's welll w/ ATC, but it's gotten goofed  up as well on occasion.  If you ever get desparate w/ AP not following to your destination it seems Direct To always works.
