Ah, ok, that’s the speed bug. Make sense based on where it is located .

There is a magenta bearing in number that I think should be connected to the autopilot course but it doesn’t change, I need to look at the PFD to see the course . This is in the CRJ 900

Thanks for all the replies. I’ve managed to intercept the ILS once . My follow up question is, if I use the NAV mode on the autopilot, ILS source and the runway heading as course, what other restrictions are there or what other actions are needed for the autopilot to successfully put me on the localizer so I can switch to the APPR mode. Like, do I need to be within a certain distance, certain maximum bearing from the runway? The autopilot cannot use the localizer like a VOR since the beam only covers a narrow band , right? And yet I do get DME information .

The runway course.

So it needs that even for ILS source?

This is the autopilot with nav source tutorial. Im flying the CRJ

Try low visibility instead of any clouds. Avoid complex planes and complex airports and sunset/dawn all together.

I’m doing that. I am using the sim mostly for helicopters and get 40FPS on the R22 but in the 30s with occasional dips in the 20s on the EC135. I think for helicopters the higher the FPS the easier to fly .

4GB and definitely enough free space on the SSD.

Like I said, the computer is very weak. I need to tweak the game beyond the settings.

Complex Cockpits seem to be the worst FPS reducing culprit

I’m trying to play this on a potato laptop. So far I have lowered everything but still barely breaking 30FPS

With the default settings, it seems rather roomy. I know not seeing one’s body adds to that feeling, but is it’s scaled accurately?
