I have this airplane and reading the manual does nothing. I've managed to accidentally get this to work in the past, but I can't seem to get it to work recently.

After you file an IFR flight plan and load it into that panel thing with all the buttons by clicking FPL then "Load FS flight plan", how do you get it to follow the GPS nav? I can get it to follow any headings I put in, but I can't get it to use GPS for navigation. Basically I'm trying to get it to say LNAV and for the life of me I can't get it up again. It used to follow that GPS line perfectly, now I don't remember how to get it to work!! Sad

Can anyone help me with this? Thanks!!

First, this needs to be posted in the respective forum. A moderator would (usually) auotomatically do this but it would help to know which sim version this is for as well as the specifics.

This airplane is for FSX.

Not sure what specifics you are referring to. I explained it as well as I know how.

there should be a button that says Nav/Gps change it to GPS. Then on the autopilot instead of following Heading make it follow Nav

There is no such button. It has a nav and vnav buttons, but no lnav. I don't remember how to do it. I know how to do it on all the default FSX planes, its the citation X I struggle with.

In the 2D panel, there are two small knobs above the MFD and PFD (the 2 screens). Turn the left one all the way to the right, until it shows "FMS1" in purple. That should do the job.

Thanks! That did it! But also, on the VC cockpit, if you click around that switch at about the 7 oclock position and hold the left mouse button and move it around that switch in a circle, it will move the same switch on the VC panel.

Fixed my problem, thanks buddy!!!!!
