Embraer 195 LNAV - BANK ANGLE

[jungle_jet]

Hello guys,

first off: Thanks for making the EMB 195 (E-Jets V2.) Everything works fine and gives a great immersion, except for one annoying thing:

Everything is set up correctly for depature, all perfomance-data filled in, the take-off + climb out works like a charm, but whenever LNAV is engaged, becomes active and the autopilot is connect, it doesn't follow the LNAV-route (which is selected via the FMS-Button as source by the way), but banks itself out of the sky (high bank -> "bank angle" -> "high speed" and falls out of the sky if the AP is not disconnected.) I tried everything, did many flights, but always with the same result. Handflying works great though. What could be the culprit? Tried it with and without weather engine (FSGRW), but alway got the same result. Any idea is very welcome.

Cheers!

Phil

you must be on an intercept course to the next waypoint before engaging the autopilot.  a forum search will provide more detail on this issue.

Now the thing is, I am. Actually sometimes it does capture the lnav track and flies it more or less precisely - and all of a sudden it banks off the track, swinging around it and sometimes just completely looses it (without reverting to another lateral mode) and continues to fly offtrack. I can't really understand why. But it is not for not being exactly on track when enganging the AP.

strange behavior i've never experienced.  one option is to uninstall and reinstall.

Hi, opted for the new install.

Edit: (xml-error fixed (missed the sp1 + 2 after the fresh FSX install on Win10), however, the aicraft still veers of LNAV track.
