PMDG aircrafts Heading bug in external view
eksa posted a topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020)
Hi, with PMDG 737 and 777 when i set heading via heading knob (using mouse) in the cockpit view, it doesn't change the heading bug in the external view hud, but if i set the heading with keyboard shortcut it changes heading in both cockpit and external view. In default A320 neo, there is no such problem.. have you recognised this or am is there something wrong with my setup or settings? -
Basically, I'm a major newbie in VATSIM and I rarely use it from the complexity of it but I thought I'd give it ago but the one thing that really confuses is me is when no Air traffic controllers are covering the air space you are in how are you meant to work out when you need to start descending and how are you meant to work out the heading when you're about to go on approach. -
Flying from KRNT to KFHR I used the CVV VOR. The heading that LNM gave me 3 miles out of KRNT RWY 34 to go 'to' the VOR was 319 M - however the heading shown on the flight plan at the VOR where the line intersects the VOR was 315 M. Which one is correct and why? -
I've been using Microsoft Flight Simulator since 1984 when the Apple IIC version came out. After installing FSX a couple years ago I've been taking of and landing hundreds of time in my PMDG-747 with absolutely no problem. A couple weeks ago I installed the FSX-SE version and suddenly I'm missing all of my ILS approaches; each and every one is lining up the aircraft at the left of every airport in any condition of weather, it also show the route line in a slanted position in the navigation panel (it never align with the plane); even if I set wind manually to 0 knots and perfect conditions. I know exactly how to set up the waypoints and ILS approaches on the FMC, since I've been doing it for years. The problem seems to be the Steam Edition in which I don't know how to fix this issue. I'm considering to return to my out-of-the-box FSX Gold Edition; but the reason why I've installed the SE edition is because it fix some video graphic problems with FSX out-of-the-box on Windows 10 64 bits. Any help will be very well appreciated. David Quinn

Hi, this i my first post in this forum and before i describe my problem i want to excuse my english i am from Germany and i am still learning ;)So when i and a friend make our Multicrew session, everything in the cockpit is synced until we begin to taxi.So, when we taxi (also happens while we are in the air) and the PF turns the plane to the right everything is correct and the heading is the same of PF and PNF.But when he turns left and passes the 180° mark, the PNF heading freezes at 182°.At PF side everything is still turning and the cockpit is also synced.And also the PNF plane is still moving but is stuck at this 182° degree.The Navigation Display of the PNF is also still showing the correct heading, only the plane itself is stuck.After the PF passes the 360° mark, the PNF's plane is back turning, but only until he passes the 180° again. Or he turns right and passes 180°, the PNF's plane is back turning and if he continue turning right everything is working at the PNF's side, just at a left turn there exists this problem.This problem exists if we try a FS9-FSX but also at a FSX-FSX connection.We both have W7 64bit and have the Fokker SP2.5 installed.Do you have the same problem ?ThanksMichael

Hello Everyone! I have a small question, but complicated to ask actually. I added ILS systems to some airports around Spain who in real life didnt have it, because of the facility to land, and i even managed ATC to recognize them, so i can choose an ILS aporoach instead of only a VOR-DME or even only a Visual approach. My problem/question now is, as i added a new ILS with a new frequency, it doesnt show up in the traditional 'FS2004 Map', when you look into the airport information for a certain airport, to get the correct ILS frequencies. You see the name of the airport, the runway, the heading, but not the 'new frequency' for the ILS. Which file in the FS9 Folder gives access to this information to edit it, so i can manually add this frequencies? Or better: How can i edit this information within FS9, or do i need any external tool for that? (There's for example a name-failure for LPMA, it says 'Maderia'... I would like to change this, hehe) Thanks to each and everyone who could give me a hand in this peculiar problem. Greetz, Co-Pilot Diego. -
Apologies if this topic has been discussed before. I tried to search it but didn't really find anything useful. During my climb between 5000ft - FL 200 LNAV was getting frequently disengaged for some reason. I noticed that every time it disengaged after a turbulence as the plane was shaking sidewise. I do not have any weather add on and I was only using standard fsx realtime weather. So is it normal for the LNAV to get disengaged after a turbulence? On a separate note, during another flight all on sudden my auto pilot stopped working even though I didn't sign up for any emergence or failure. I had to deploy the second autopilot to get the plane on course. Since then the primary autopilot didn't work throughout the flight...is there any reason? Did I do anything wrong by mistake? Thanks in advance for your help. Ronnie

I bought the PA34 Seneca V from Carenado and it seems like it is auto correcting for wind drift, the heading stayed about 10 degrees right of the heading bug on autopilot. I had a crosswing right to left of about 12kts. This is a problem for ATC control when flying online. Any ideas what's going on. I haven't found any similar postings
