FlyingLimey Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 I have the Carenado Phenom 300 V2 installed with the Extension pack and Navigraph. I live in Fort Worth close to KFTW and am trying to fly from KFTW and then shoot the ILS 34 back into KFTW. I set up the approach with Vectors to final and fly the airplane to south of LOOPE which is the Initial Fix. With the autopilot engaged and the approach activated as I approach the LOC course and engage APR mode the FMS never transitions to and captures the localalizer or the glide slope. Accordingly the FD never commands. I am an actual pilot and have flown this approach in an airplane, albeit a G1000 C172 instead of a Phenom so it's not like I don't know how to do it, but why is the FMS not sequencing properly? What in my set up could I have wrong. I am using the latest Carenado Phenom 300 and the latest extension and 1804 Navigraph.

mallcott Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 There's so much you could have done wrong, probably best to ask in the Carenado unofficial forum https://www.avsim.com/forums/forum/741-emb505-phenom-300-hd-series-for-fsx-p3d/ And in the meantime fly the approach using the G1000-equipped 172 to check all the navaids are correct. Navigraph can be inaacurate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rupert Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 I agree with Mallcott. If you're used to flying a 172 RW, try simming that approach first. If you're OK with the 172, then your problem is another issue. BTW: I just flew the defaults Lear 45 from KDFW to KFTW and shot that ILS 34 approach. Other than a little side drift caused by the winds at 8 knots from 270 it worked perfectly. I landed exactly on the spot, just a few feet off of center-line.
