how to activate NAV mode on the autopilot? [Answered]

Post by franz.j.leitner » Sat Oct 09, 2021 5:52 pm

the pc6 now is flying for some weeks. It is a great plane, the simulation is best.
One point is unclear to me:
I can't activate the NAV mode on the AP.
All other modes are working best, the HDG, the ALT, the VS up/down.

A flightplane (FPL) is loaded. It is shown in the VR map and the G1000. When the AP is activated , first it starts in HDG+ALT.
A click on NAV let shows "NAV" on the AP but the PC6 still follows the HDG course. To be exactly, the AP display shows NAV and HDG.
I was not able to activate NAV. The pc6 always follows HDG.

Please can you send some instruction about the NAV mode? Thanx.

Success.
A flight was startet with an ILS flight plan, and the PC6 exactly followed the route.
The AP switches from HDG to NAV as described in the documentation.

Again, thank you for responding and the docu.
