Probably a noob question...

Postby Tchkinjiu » Thu Oct 19, 2006 7:34 pm

Don't mean to sound like one but here goes...

In FS9 I was used to being able to push the little "ILS" button with Nav1 set etc, and it would line itself up and I would do the rest.

But in FS10, it seems to be missing. Is it just a vaporized option, as having to be manual now, or is it still existant just under an alias

Sorry, one more  ::)

I found the option easily and it works great, minus one thing. The second I turn autopilot on, it lines itself up, but it also wants to shoot either skyward, or plummit downwards. I have to trim like mad to get it level.

Does this have something to with having autopilot and altitude hold linked? Is there a way to bypass this?

not shure about the new question, but i have an update, i flew the A321, maby its diffrent with the 737, but right now i prefer 321, but Nav button in FS9 is equivilant to the LOC button in FSX,  for ILS use the ILS button and APP button  ;D  thats my final version  ;D

Hm, not sure, but its happening in the Airbus as well. It seems to want to go to a set alt, so I let it, and it leveled off at like 5500. Didn't try the boeing. Also, I think the airbus has a problem, its heavy to control in the air (fine) but when I get to about 20 feet above the ground, it becomes incredibly responsive (bad).

Any input on this would help, meaning why it wants to go skyward or terrain...ward.
