hermannk1 Posted August 2, 2021 Report Posted August 2, 2021 I have been using the BN2 Islander for many hours and many weeks. Love flying it! After an absence of a few weeks I started it up again this morning and encountered a strange problem. Setting the GTN 750 up for a GPS/NAV flight from FALA to FAKN via WIV and DODOS, I can't get the aircraft to follow the GPS route. I chose GPS on the GTN750 and NAV on the AP. Aircraft turns North and keeps on flying North not following the flight plan course. The CDI does not respond at all to the GPS and Autopilot input. Am I doing something wrong? Quote

Hm, I'm guessing something got disabled with the RealityXP configuration files, I've attached a fresh one here that you can replace. RealityXP.GTN.ini Quote

RealityXP.GTN.ini 4.59 kB · 1 download Hi I copied the above RealityXP.GTN.ini to the BN-2 Islander with exactly the same results. CDI not responding to the GTN750 GPS input. When setting GTN750 to VLOC, it works with no problem when a VOR is selected. As soon as I set GTN750 to GPS, it does not respond. Maybe I should delete it in entirity, load the version 1.2.0 and see how it responds. See whether there is a bug in version 1.2.1. New screenshot added. Quote
hermannk1 Posted August 5, 2021 Author Report Posted August 5, 2021 I deleted latest version 1.2.1 and installed previous version 1.2.0 with same results. I even tried another aircraft using the GTN 750 and it worked fine. Really do not know what the problem is. A shame because I really love this aircraft! Quote
Coop Posted August 5, 2021 Report Posted August 5, 2021 Can you send a screenshot of the RealityXP settings in X-Plane with the Islander loaded? Quote

Coop Posted August 6, 2021 Report Posted August 6, 2021 Can you try selecting the two "Connect HSI/CRS" options? Quote

Whether this is 100% I am not 100% sure. Will still do some testing. Was not switched ON by default. Thanks for the help. 1 Quote
