Terence2022 Posted Friday at 02:10 AM Posted Friday at 02:10 AM Here is the scenario CYVR by FSDT. RWY 26R. VOR set to frequency 111.95. On approach, LOC and ILS captured (aircraft reacts and GS tag turns white) but it flies 30 degrees north of runway heading and does not follow descent slope. I tried 6 times!! Something is NOT right with the ILS. It’s not fixed in V1.01 as marketed. Flown here countless of times with other aircraft without issues. No way I will do manual approach and land with every flight. This needs to be fixed.
RyanAlmeida95 Posted Friday at 07:50 AM Posted Friday at 07:50 AM I completed an ILS approach yesterday with V1.01 and it worked ok. Make sure you change from INS to Radio of course. I've also noticed that you need to establish and be stable on the localiser with LOC selected first, then select ILS... and when it intercepts the GS it will drop LOC use ILS for both localiser and GS guidance. Anything outside of being stable and it struggles.
Terence2022 Posted Friday at 11:57 AM Author Posted Friday at 11:57 AM Thanks for the tips. Here are more details. I switched INS to Radio in all attempts. I selected HDG first to intercept with an Altitude hold. Then select LOC. When the aircraft intercepts LOC, it turns towards the runway. The LOC ARM tag changes from black to white, confirming capture. The GS orange needle tip starts to drop to the center. I disengage Altitude hold, and as the GS needle reaches the center, I engage the ILS button and the LOC distinguishes. I expected ILS to takeover. The GS ARM tag turns from black to white, confirming capture. The aircraft then turns 30 degrees away from the direction of the runway on its own. And does not follow slope of descent. I will try other airports later but I've flown to CYVR hundreds of times with other aircrafts with no issues. Weather set to clear no winds to avoid weather being a variable so the aircraft is stable. Something is not right.
Tripdog87 Posted Friday at 12:40 PM Posted Friday at 12:40 PM The other thing to remember if you are using the GNS530 is to make sure you press the CDI button so it changes from “GPS” to “VLOC.” 1

Swagger897 Posted 4 hours ago Posted 4 hours ago Just landed at TXKF ILS Z 30 and had no faults with an auto land on 1.0.1. I will say that on the initial release at around 1500 AGL it would nose dive to the ground almost on every auto land attempt, but that was with single channel only, not with both A/P's set to CMD. Did not do the full rollout, hopefully tonight/tomorrow on return leg I'll get a chance to do so.
