Mephic 4 Posted February 8, 2014 Share Posted February 8, 2014 Take off with ATC vectors (I didn't pull hdg select on ground, first time in air) Than when ATC gives me clearance to follow route based on my navigation systems I push heading and instead of lines and engaged lnav I see last course which I was flying and a dot behind it (254 .) Airbus won't engage lnav if I won't choose direct to next waypoint and also this doesn't help sometimes. I bought it two days ago so I assume I have newest version (1.16) Is it normal for this aircraft that it won't follow flight plan? Is it my error? Never happened on this route in 737ng Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KyleD 1027 Posted February 8, 2014 Share Posted February 8, 2014 Hi, Have you flown the Step by Step tutorial already? Also, version 1.16 with hotfix 019 is the most current version: http://forum.aerosoft.com/index.php?/topic/75120-hotfix-019-additional-fixes-that-did-not-made-it-into-116/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mephic 4 Posted February 9, 2014 Author Share Posted February 9, 2014 I did flown it and find it useful for newcomer to flight simming but it doesn't go too deep into systems considering it is focused on virtual FO and autoland. Anyway - found the reason, it won't follow via - first waypoint must be direct and it works Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CAB825 3 Posted February 15, 2014 Share Posted February 15, 2014 Having similar issue of engaging NAV mode also. It only happens after a landing (ie a flight after a turn around). FMS is reprogrammed etc etc and after take off it will not engage NAV mode, only heading mode. All other A/P functions are fine. Any suggestions...am I missing something or is this a bug? Version 1.16 installed. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mephic 4 Posted February 16, 2014 Author Share Posted February 16, 2014 2 things - never engage lnav or heading on ground and always engage lnav when your plane position is near the route displayed on nd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pateotana1512 31 Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 Maybe...make sure you dont have any flight plan discontinuty on the MCDu route page if you have it erase it or NAV mode wont work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CAB825 3 Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 Nope no discontinuities, probably should have explained it a bit better, the route changes from dashed to solid when nav is engaged (like it should) but then switches back to heading mode immediately.

Airbus339 129 Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 I never make two flights in a row as I've read too many times that AAX becomes somewhat unpredictable during turn around. I always end FSX and restart it to avoid any problems. I can say it became very stable with newer versions. Sometimes I made two flights in a row (once I flew 4 short legs in a row!) and 99% of the time I never had any problem at all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
