Thank you Donor for your reply. That makes sense, I am using the sikorsky SH-3 (Sea king) and it has things like tacan switches to select but I just get a DME reading. Is there anyway to change the radio in the sea king in XP? Conner

Hello, I've started flying helicopters in X-plane around Lincolnshire, UK and am trying to use RAF Cranwell, Waddington and Coningsby tacan's to navigate my way around. Whenever I enter a frequency into nav 1, and make it an active frequency I pick it up as DME, just not VOR. I personally thought tacan is basically a military version of a VOR, but it seems to me it's more like a DME. My question is am I write or wrong in my theory? Or is X-plane 10 portraying tacans in the wrong way (which I doubt) And also how do the military use tacan to navigate, and how can I start doing this? Thank you very much Conner.

Hi Byork, Thank you very much for your reply. The problem was the first thing you said and mine was set on Uk, I changed it to us and it works perfectly. Sorry for inconvenience but thank you so much for helping me get it working, I very much appreciate it. Thank you, Conner

Hi, I've just installed FS2crew for the Airbus extended X and I've installed everything it tells me to. However when I go into fsx and select the panel, the Voice button never stays in the on position. There for I cannot speak to the crew. Please help because I'm desperate to get this addon working as it's my first FS2Crew addon I have, Thank you Conner

Okay. Thanks for your reply Bert. Been a big help. Conner

Hi Bert, Thanks for your reply. My problem is all sorted now. Thanks for your help :-). I do have one question. Is DME the same as ADF in terms of flying with normal heading with the autopilot ? Thanks again, Conner :-)

Hi, I'm fairly new to the Carenado B200 King Air and I'm quickly getting use to it's systems in the cockpit. However there are a few navigation issues I'm having and would love some advice or help. Whenever I type in a VOR code, and are in limits of range my aircraft never seems to follow it, nor ADF. I'm not to sure what 'PRE, ACT or XFR' are on the course knob, but I'm convinced it's something to do with my problem. I'm doing everything else correct (I think) with the active bearing points, and I understand how the course control symbol works. I'm also pressing the 'NAV' button with my autopilot, but nothing seems to happen and my aircraft will just fly straight not turning towards the VOR/ADF. If anyone could help me with this matter it would be gratefully appreciated. Thank you, Conner
