Asobo Top Rudder 103 Solo - VFR Map

Do you have any add-ons in your Community folder? If yes, please remove and retest before posting.
No.
Are you using Developer Mode or made changes in it?
No.
Brief description of the issue:
When using the Top Rudder, the pop-out VFR map shows the previous flight plan prior to flying the Top Rudder, regardless of whatever flight plan was entered at the main menu with the TR selected.

In this instance I’d flown from Heathrow to London previously, and then returned to the main menu and set up a flight from Birmingham to Wolverhampton in the Top Rudder. VFR map still shows the London flight path on the map instead of the new route over Birmingham. This only seems to happen with the Top Rudder.

Provide Screenshot(s)/video(s) of the issue encountered:


Detail steps to reproduce the issue encountered:
Plot a VFR route on the main menu map with the Top Rudder, start the flight and the pop-out VFR map shows whatever route you flew prior to changing to the Top Rudder, instead of the flight plan set at the main menu.

There was a thread a few weeks ago about this problem, it occurs with other planes that have no flight management system or GPS from what I saw there. I haven’t seen the bug myself because I don’t use the VFR map.

I don’t have the link handy, but you should be able to find it in the forum’s search function and look for any advice there or combine the thread/voting.

That’s a pretty good explanation. It sure looks very plausible.

Cheers. Usually don’t rely on the VFR map either but there’s no much in the way of navigation tools on the Top Rudder.

Yeah I use an external mapping tool (ForeFlight), so my flight plan is already 100% unrelated to my map. :wink:
