MrGarak1 0 Posted November 25, 2018 Share Posted November 25, 2018 Hello, So I'm having some really bad LNAV issues, I'm on the latest navigraph release and I just tried the experimental update, however I still seem to be having issues. But initially after take off, LNAV doesn't follow the flight plan, I can see the FD turning but the plane doesn't actually turn, I have to disengage the autopilot and change waypoints a few times for the nav to eventually work again. Then typically when I get to the start of the STAR the same thing happens again. Additionally, when climbing in speed mode, usually the autopilot ignores the speed setting and it pitches up until the plane stalls, I have to manually climb for a bit to combat this. These two bugs make this plane impossible to fly at the moment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Developer Hans Hartmann 3694 Posted November 25, 2018 Developer Share Posted November 25, 2018 We had one report about strange flight behaviours that was caused by Accu Feel. Other than that I can only think of joysticks inputs that cause the autopilot to disconnect. You could try to change the Yoke AP Disconnect Sensitivity setting in DAVE to MED or even LOW and check if that fixes the problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrGarak1 0 Posted November 25, 2018 Author Share Posted November 25, 2018 I think I already have it set to low, I'll double check it later, I don't think the autopilot is actually disconnecting, however I will confirm when I try it later on.

MrGarak1 0 Posted November 29, 2018 Author Share Posted November 29, 2018 So I ran another test flight, I tried a different route kbuf-klga, I had the same issues again, as soon as I hit the STAR it stopped following the nav route and went the complete wrong direction, banking until the plane stalled.

doylie22 23 Posted November 30, 2018 Share Posted November 30, 2018 I'm suddenly having these issues as well but I just upgraded to P3D v4.4. I'm not sure if that is the culprit in this case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Developer Hans Hartmann 3694 Posted November 30, 2018 Developer Share Posted November 30, 2018 I don't have any issues here with 4.4. However, there were problems with people updating from 4.2 to 4.3 instead of doing a clean install. All those were fixed by a clean install. I assume that the same goes for 4.4 as well. @MrGarak1 The only explanation I have, is still an external influence. Can you post your complete flightplan so I can give it a try here?

MrGarak1 0 Posted November 30, 2018 Author Share Posted November 30, 2018 I did a clean install of 4.2 but I didn't do one of 4.3, I'm still on 4.3, waiting for some more addon compatibility before I move to 4.4 The flightplan was kbuf (BUF7, rwy 5) - klga(HAARP3, ILS22) GEE -> AUDIL -> RKA -> HAARP3 You do need to slightly clean up the star by removing an extra LGA waypoint for some reason Let me know if you need anything else or want me to try something, thanks for any help!

MrGarak1 0 Posted December 15, 2018 Author Share Posted December 15, 2018 I did an uninstall/reinstall of the aircraft, didn't upgrade the nav data and flew the same route and got the same result as above. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrGarak1 0 Posted January 5, 2019 Author Share Posted January 5, 2019 I upgraded to p3d 4.4, reinstalled the aircraft but I’m still having these issues with all flights?! Really frustrating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Developer Hans Hartmann 3694 Posted January 6, 2019 Developer Share Posted January 6, 2019 Is it possible that the NAV mode simply disconnected? If yes, it could be this issue: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrGarak1 0 Posted January 6, 2019 Author Share Posted January 6, 2019 No that doesn't appear to be it. I have NAV mode engaged. I can see the FD turn with the NAV line on the display but the plane just doesn't follow. I need to switch NAV modes from HDG (which works fine) to NAV a ton of times for it to finally re-engage on take off. Then as soon as I hit the STAR the plane does it again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrGarak1 0 Posted January 6, 2019 Author Share Posted January 6, 2019 The issue only happens with SIDS and STARS. I just did a flight without issue not using SIDS and STARS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Developer Hans Hartmann 3694 Posted January 6, 2019 Developer Share Posted January 6, 2019 Can you give me an example of a flightplan where this happens? (as complete as possible please. The more information I have, the greater is the chance that I can find out if/what's going on). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrGarak1 0 Posted January 19, 2019 Author Share Posted January 19, 2019 FYI this is still an issue on the latest release Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrGarak1 0 Posted January 19, 2019 Author Share Posted January 19, 2019 Additionally with this release I can't get any nav mode to work HDG or LNAV. I've literally purged every aerosoft file on my computer and reinstalled and it doesn't work. There has to be something up with the plane. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrGarak1 0 Posted January 23, 2019 Author Share Posted January 23, 2019 So after doing a ton of testing, different controllers, routes etc. I have this issue on all routes with all controllers. However it appears as if I still need to load a default plane to get the CRJ to follow the FMS nav at all, I thought we didn't need to do that any more? If I don't load a default plane first it refuses to follow any nav autopilot selection. I still have pitch problems as well, plane goes absolutely crazy after take off and trim goes all the way up to max I have to disengage autopilot and let it "calm down" before I can re-engage. I don't know what else to do at this point and it's extremely frustrating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrGarak1 0 Posted January 23, 2019 Author Share Posted January 23, 2019 I've also had a few flights where the nav is no longer followed once I hit the star. I give up, I have no other ideas at this point other than to just hope that one update you guys push out magically fixes it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoffie3000 96 Posted January 24, 2019 Share Posted January 24, 2019 I flew your flight - BUF7.GEE AUDIL RKA.HAARP3 - twice with the CRJ7, with the result that both flights were normal. As approach I chose once the RNAV Z Rwy22 and the second time the ILS Z Rwy22, both were flown off flawlessly. Only during the RNAV approach the ILS frequency did not turn in automatically. But I'm not sure if that's the way it should be. The manual input solved the problem. In general, the CRJ´s is sensitive to high speed turns with SID and STARS, they like to lose course and don't come back to it. But if you consider that, the CRJ´s SID and STARS fly off well. Do not mix different Approach routes like RNAV and ILS. With the screenshots you can compare your settings: Please login to display this image. Please login to display this image.

MrGarak1 0 Posted January 24, 2019 Author Share Posted January 24, 2019 Hey thanks man, I'll take a look later on, either way it sounds like it might be something with my sim. May be time to do a complete uninstall/reinstall.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrGarak1 0 Posted January 25, 2019 Author Share Posted January 25, 2019 Everything is definitely the same when I do that flight, I went through Chuck's guide just to be sure as well. The plane will just not follow any NAV in most situations for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoffie3000 96 Posted January 25, 2019 Share Posted January 25, 2019 Really a strange Problem. Are you still on P3Dv4.2 and where are the Install-Folder of P3Dv4? P3Dv4.4 is stable. Some people have only partially updated their sim and get some probs. The suggestions is a full install of P3Dv4.4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
