Steve6248 5 Posted March 23, 2021 Share Posted March 23, 2021 Has anyone got the Radial Cross function to work properly on the FIX Info page of the FMS? I've got the Dis Cross to work but not the Rad Cross. If so, any tips on getting it to work? And does the Abeam function work? And what does the LEGS page Rwy Update function do? Can't find that in the manuals. Does it work? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Svaly 7 Posted March 23, 2021 Share Posted March 23, 2021 What kind of message do you have when entering a Rad Cross ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To my knowledge... It updates the FMS position to the runway threshold coordinates (IE. should be pressed after lining up on runway). However, because positional accuracy isn't really an issue in a sim I assume this isn't actually simulated, but I am guessing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve6248 5 Posted March 23, 2021 Author Share Posted March 23, 2021 @bobbyfuzzy Thanks! @Svaly The message is "No Intersection". I have tried with many different radials to see if works but always says "No Intersection". If I enter a Distance Cross it gives a Rad Cross. If I then use that Rad Cross as another Fix it still says "No Intersection". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Developer Hans Hartmann 3694 Posted March 23, 2021 Developer Share Posted March 23, 2021 Yes, I misinterpreted the text in the manual. It's on my to do list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve6248 5 Posted March 25, 2021 Author Share Posted March 25, 2021 So can someone still confirm whether the Radial Cross function works for them or not? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve6248 5 Posted March 25, 2021 Author Share Posted March 25, 2021 I fixed another issue with flight plans loading and now tried the FIX Rad Cross again and it's working. Although only working when there's a flight plan loaded and the Rad Cross intersects the flight plan. Otherwise it says "No Intersection" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve6248 5 Posted March 26, 2021 Author Share Posted March 26, 2021 Unless I’m mistaken, I believe a Rad Cross should be able to be entered that doesn’t intersect the flight plan path. If that is correct, please can that be updated in a future patch. One example of how this would be beneficial is to extend a runway centreline for approach awareness. I know the INTC CRS function can also be used for this but that too is not currently working for a manually entered radial. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lasowitzse 3 Posted February 15, 2022 Share Posted February 15, 2022 Any updates for this issue? Seems like this should have been fixed by now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
