TACAN Reverse Sensing
-
Has anyone else noticed that the TACAN CDI will reverse sense when traveling outbound from a station?
In other words, when traveling north on the 360 radial, and with 360 dialed in the course window, you can only center the needle by turning AWAY from it.
I don’t believe that’s correct.

@deacon211 We'll investigate and include a fix in the next update. Thanks for reporting.

Tested using Leeming Ch23 262 radial and you are correct. CDI is reversed.

Confirmed, reverse sensing only works for right hand side of the course radial, it was not fixed in latest update, which I believe was today. example; if you fly on the "from side" of the Vor, flying away from the Vor, with your airplane heading and OBS heading matched, and fly to the right, the course deviation indicator moves to the left, which is correct, if you turn left and cross the OBS course radial, the course deviator only moves to the right as far as the center, then moves back to the left which is wrong.
