      Hello

      I dont know if it just me but on the Piper Arrow 4T the AP wont pick up my VOR Signal from NAV2, it just follows NAV1 regardless what I do.

      When i change the Position from the "Coupler radio selector switch" to NAV2 nothing changes it will allways use NAV1.
      It will also follow NAV1 when i put the Coupler to the off position.

      I checked it with the normal Arrow 3 and there it works without any problem. As soon as i Switch to NAV2 the AP follows the Signal.

      Is there something special to do in the Arrow 4T?

      Thanks for the help

        Uh oh, thats a bug. Confirmed not working in either Turbo III/IV or Arrow III. I'll submit a ticket.

          Confirmed AP not tracking NAV2 on all three current version aircraft.

            Thanks for confirmation

            I guess it´s working on my Arrow 3 because it is a older Version

              Apologies, this was a side-effect of adding the feature of assigning a hardware control to the selector switch. It's now fixed and you can download a hotfix here (just paste the relevant package folder over the top of the existing one): https://justflight.sharefile.com/d-s38a1a9d2fc4340e48ea80dc2b123a238

                  Thanks for the quick fix. AP is now tracking NAV2 VORs on all three current versions of the Arrow. I assume that this fix will be included in future updates.

                      @Martyn I am doing a flight right now with the turboarrow folder from the hotfix file pasted in the package folder (before I launched MSFS) (replacing 2 files, the .WASM in /panel) but switching the coupler switch to NAV2 still does not couple the HSI/ autopilot to my NAV2..
                      When switched to NAV2, turning the HSI direction knob also rotates the compass card of NAV1 CDI
                      Could I be doing something wrong?
