Hi,Everytime I make a flightplan, RC3 will not follow it.Example:egll, SAM, GDV, gclpHere it vectors me to SAM, but then it goes to the course 205, instead of 230. How can I fix this?thanksSnagge

copy and paste your flight plan into a post here. let's take a look.

Ok, how do I copy and paste the plan to a post?thanksSnagge

what planner are you using? i've not heard of a vor named egsam or gcgdvi can't even find intersections with those names.

Well, jd, a little "Sherlock Holmes" work maybe? :-) If you remove the 'EG' (ICAO code for the UK region) from EGSAM and the 'GC' (ICAO code for the Canaries') from GCGDV you're left with SAM, the Southampton VOR on the south coast of England and GDV, the Gran Canaria VOR on (you've guessed it) the island of Gran Canaria. The distance between these two waypoints is about 1500 nautical miles which suggests the problem is great circle navigation.Snagge,RC3 doesn't handle navigation well between two points that are 1500 miles apart - well, who does? :-) - such as the two you've got in your flight plan - the maximum distance (in RC3) between waypoints for accurate navigation is about 350nm. Simply put, you need more points in your plans.Try inputting this one for the Canaries and I think you'll find RC3 handles it perfectly:EGLL SAM ASPEN ORTAC GUR LARSI QPR ERWAN LOTEE AVS KORET BARKO RALUS CANAR VIS ABETO DIGAL MAGUM ATECA BAROK BENTU NEVEL MITLA SAMAR GDV GCLPPete

Ok, I'll give it a try, thanks.Snagge
