Fsbuild-2 Flight Planner

Hi everyone !

I have been trying over and over to make this work on a default A321 from FSX...

Flight plan import and activation seems ok, but...

When using the autopilot, the plane does not join the active route.

How does the FMS interact with FSX autopilot ?

I just can't make it work !

Thanks !

I can't speak for FSX (although Ernie will be able to help you when he sees your post), but you have to have the HDG button engaged on your regular autopilot as well as the ISG LNAV button to have the plane fly an FMS generated route.

Hope that helps,

Hello,
I try to use Smith´s FMS with FS9 Wilco CRJ (thanx Brian), but have ptoblems with autopilot and this FMS. I have AP ON, HDG ON, LNAV ON nad autopilot still doesn´t want to follow FMS route, FMS also doesn´t show AIRAC data and aircraft type. I don´t know but seems that autopilot still work with default CRJ FMS and show "SET IRS POS":

This is my panel.cfg:

Thanx for any idea and help

Ernie-

Does it make a difference that the original ND was replaced with the ISG MFD (rather than another ND)? My guess is that it doesn't make any difference, but I'm no expert here.
