RNAV 511
-
I thought the RNAV511 issue was resolved: NAV1 WPT1 and NAV2 WPT2. However, if I set a WPT2 on NAV2 and—while doing so—prepare a WPT1 on NAV1, the C114 changes direction as soon as I activate NAV1.
Not fully fixed?@Benji124 I'm afraid you might need to explain a little further what you're doing here, and what you think is going wrong. NAV2 should not be involved with RNAV navigation at all anymore.

Thank you for your reply. In other words, is it confirmed that on the RNAV511, WPT1 is guided solely by the VOR1 frequency and, conversely, WPT2 is guided solely by the VOR2 frequency?
The reason I ask is that I get the impression there is some interference.
Thanks, and have a good day. -
I'm no expert, but my understanding is that both WPT1 and WPT2 are dependent on the VOR frequency tuned in NAV1. In other words, you can prepare TWO separate RNAV offsets from a single VOR.

I believe the way it is meant to function, which is how I've been using it, is that regardless of WPT1 or WPT2, the VOR data is driven by NAV1. You can set up waypoints derived from different VORs, you'll just have to have one of them tuned as the active NAV1 frequency, and the second tuned as the standby NAV1 frequency. Or, you can have two waypoints derived from the same VOR, but it must be tuned on the NAV1 radio.

Yeah in the previous version they were split between Nav1 and 2, now both waypoints are on Nav1. Pluses and minuses to both setups.. I just hope this one is the true to life one.
