  • RMI needles still don’t work while Failed card

    RMI needles should still work with a directional gyro failure. Nav needle should still represent the radial you are on while failed card. ADF needle should still show bearing to the station in relation to the aircraft while failed card. Neither work. The digital radial readout still works while failed card so Tacan failed card is possible to practice but difficult without the needle. ADF needle is just frozen so impossible to practice failed card here.

    Seeing as how I purchased the app primarily for this feature, kinda bummed.

    Developer Response

    This issue has been corrected with the latest version of the app. The RMI GPS/VOR needles now reflect the current radial the aircraft is on regardless of the orientation of the RMI, while the ADF needle will point toward the NDB relative to the 12 o'clock position of the gauge. I request that you revisit the app and if it meets your expectations, that you revise your rating/review. Thank you for your input.

    Faild card needs some work, needle movement does not adjust to reality
