Do you have the same issue if you follow the OP’s steps to reproduce it?
• Yes

Provide extra information to complete the original description of the issue:
• The VNAV needles will guide you to the planned flight path, acting like course indicators with no bearing. I believe a GS flag appears on their left side in this case.

Do you have the same issue if you follow the OP’s steps to reproduce it?
• Yes

Provide extra information to complete the original description of the issue:
• Both CDI needles for VOR receivers 1 and 2 remain tied to the OBS button on the Garmin 530, despite not being installed in this variant (Radios only). Pressing a keybind for the 530 OBS button enables radio navigation on both CDIs.

• The bug is well described by OP. I see the same behaviour.
It is a shame that in about the only career mode flyable aircraft with steam gauges, The most important ones don’t work.
As it stands, this variant makes no sense - the autopilot Nav mode works off GPS, yet there is no GPS unit (unless there’s a magical connection to the EFB). And the viable alternative, which some of us would be happy to use, does not work.
Incidentally there was a related bug in 2020 with a workaround via the GPS unit, which we now don’t have.
Please fix the NAV radios, or reinstate the Garmin option, or both.
This should get some priority since the Beaver is somewhat forced on career mode players.
Straight face.
