    Unstable FD

    Hello all,
    when i capture a VOR Radial or an ILS localizer, the FD reacts very jumpy.

    I cant follow a VOR Radial without AP off, because as soon as i capture the radial, the vertical FD BAR runs very fast to the right, or to the left. I doesn't move as smoothly as i should. I tought it could be a slow network, but this isn't the problem after many performance checks i made.

    Any Idea where to search?

    Have nice christmas days

    Regards

    Thomas

    What angle are you intercepting the radial at? At what distance from the navaid?

    Hey Grant,

    happy christmas to you and all other members.

    I intercept the radial within 20 degrees and direct over the VOR. I case of ILS i intercept it about 20 miles from the runways.

    Regards

    Hello,
    and mary christmas from
    germany.
    The unstable F/D function is within the latest GC build only. I reverted back to GC build 464 and the F/D is working fine again.

    Hi Brian,

    mary christmas to you too...

    I allready use the build 464 and i also tried the 462, but the F/D runs away from center-point as soon it is centered for just a half second.
