I should have clarified, I’m using the mouse and/or mouse wheel in legacy mode. Are using keyboard controls? We already know there’s no issues there, just with advancing Alt/Hdg via the mouse.

Issue confirmed by others here:

This doesn’t only happen with the Longitude. Moving the heading bug with the mouse wheel (legacy mode) now takes forever.
I can’t remember which plane it was, but it was a default prop plane (I had emptied my community folder and was testing after installing WU6).
This doesn’t happen when moving the heading bug with the commands I have assigned to my Joystick (Saitex X52Pro).

Same - hold left click + mouse wheel

Same problem with Xbox version in regards to scroll increments on ALT & HDG.

Another issue related to the Cessna Longitude, there is a sway (back and forth) at high altitude when running GPS/NAV/AP. It may be related to the speed of the aircraft at high altitudes. The sway goes away during climb/decent or when HDG/AP (my temporary workaround).

Something that worked pre SU5 - still broken in the Longitude after a bunch of fixes in SU6…sigh.

Doesn’t work like that on my end. Betcha you try and convince me it’s my mouse now.. :rofl:

Besides, why should it be necessary to Left click hold AND use the mouse scroll wheel at the same time. Dynamic speed changes in gauges started in FS9 and… worked in the Longitude prior to SU5.
