09tir98 Posted April 2 Posted April 2 The autopilot does not seem to take crosswind in to account when flying in VOR and LOC mode, however in INS mode it does. In this screenshot I have a 100 kt crosswind, with the wind coming from 270 degrees. You can see that the autopilot is flying a heading corresponding to the inbound course on the VOR rather than maintaining a wind correction angle and will over time get further and further away from the radial. If i switch over to INS navigation and fly to the same VOR using INS it will apply a wind correction angle and follow the inbound course correctly. VOR: INS: 2
