4. v0.8.0 KN 62A Issue

v0.8.0 KN 62A Issue

  • S

    Hello,

    After the upgrade to v0.8.0 I am also having issues with the KN 62A and getting groundspeed and time-to-station readings.

    I am consistently ONLY getting the DME reading and NOT the groundspeed and time-to-station. This is with VOR/DMEs that I frequently tune and have had no issues with so far. The issue is there using the remote frequency mode (both NAV 1 and 2) and also frequency mode for the KN 62A.

    Is anyone experiencing a similar issue?

    PS. Thinking about rolling back to v0.6.0 which seems to be the best version so far 😞
    (Skipped the 0.7.x versions completely since they had the NAV1/2 issue).

    It is working fine for me (in fact I can even get DME readings from navaids which are not DME, though I suspect that's a sim issue instead).

    Did you have the issue with multiple/all navaids or just one or a few?

    It's all the ones I have tried.
    Tested familiar ones and just random ones around the world... all the same. 😞

    @SuperKaro2014 I have the same issue but only when I select the GTN 750

    OK. Will try and switch GPS and see if I can reproduce. I will post the outcome here later.

    Below are my tests and results.
    Definitely looks like a clash with the GTN750 mod, and it kicks in after one flight each session.

    Versions:

    • Arrow 0.8.0 (latest)
    • GTN750 mod 1.0.21 (latest)

    Submitted a ticket.
