ISSUE DESCRIPTION

Description of the issue:
Whiskey compass, and GPS align, but the DG is off. However the 530 map screen indicates the difference.

I seem to remember a very old 2020 bug where this could happen if you use slew mode after spawning in, but I didn’t use slew mode here.

I wonder if it occurs when spawning on the water C&D, as that does cause the plane to change its orientation before you can power up…

Did you experience this issue before you joined the Beta?
Possibly, I’m not sure what triggers it

If applicable, which aircraft is experiencing this issue:
Blackbird PC-6 but possibly any 530 equipped plane.

[PC Only] Did you remove all your community mods/add-ons? If yes, are you still experiencing the issue?
No

FREQUENCY OF ISSUE

How often does this occur for you (Example: Just once, every time on sim load, intermittently)?
Very rarely, will attempt to replicate after this flight, and break down why it happens.

REPRODUCTION STEPS

Please list clear steps you took in order to help our test team reproduce the same issue:

  1. Spawed in the Blackbird PC-6 float variant, on the water C&D
  2. Adjust wind to push the plane to a different heading.
  3. Power up, and observe how DG now no longer matches the magnetic compass.
