There is quite a serious issue on the RNAV and I'm within capture region. The aircraft will not smarturn onto the next track and thence final approach course it will overshoot the waypoint and then turn back trying to intercept track often overshooting several times. I have latest Airacs installed.
Otherwise great product it has the making of a really good sim.
Thankyou.

There has been discussion in several threads on this. What speed are you at when turning final? Certain procedures must be followed or it will not work correctly. IE having all your barometers in sync.

Can you provide a flight plan I can try to duplicate?

Hi Steve,

I'm entering the IAF configured at 160kts for Rnav's. I've been flying around Australia on the east coast (home town airport YWLM)

Flights completed so far with RNAV
YWLM-YCFS
YCFS-YARM
YARM-YSCO
YSCO-YWLM

All seem to be overshooting the IAF & IF thence trying to recapture final approach track.

Thanks for your assistance, i do love the plane, I fly the AW139 heli in real life, but commercially rated fixed wing as well. 8-)
