VOR not tracking and Zendesk SOLVED

Hi.
I’ve sent a navaid bug report to Zendesk about the PSO VOR, the navigational instruments are not tracking it although the frequency is correct and DME is showing distance.

But once submitted to Zendesk it automatically market it as SOLVED.

Any help?

For more info this is the NAVAID:

location: SKPS
PSO VOR Freq 113.4
coordinates: N1°23.88’ W77° 17.38’

Zendesk ticket number: #144923

Thanks!

What aircraft were you using?

any aircraft… from default C172, DA62 to payware such as the Bandeirante from nextgensim.!
picture included.

I’ll see if I can replicate it.

Well I tried (never flew out of there before - what nice country!)
I used the CRJ 500.
It worked as it is supposed to.
Here are a couple pics.



As you can see, VOR 1 in the first pic shows 113.40 to be behind me and slightly to the right…
As I banked on departure, the needle has moved to the right in the second pic.
So the instruments are definitely tracking the VOR.

Do you have any other addons in your Community folder?
If so, try it with an empty community folder.

I should have tried with the Bandierante, as I see you have that.
I’ll give it another try with that and see if there is a difference.

EDIT:
I get the same results

I would say the issue is on your end.
Lets us know how the empty Community folder worked out!

If there is anyway else I can try that may give different results, also let us know!

Couple of things
In the crj you are using magenta lines, try normal vor navigation
In the bandeirante your GPS should be in vloc not in GPS mode, then the needle in the HSI will go left or right according to your course showing on-course or deviation. You should be able to track radials…

Ok, I never thought of that, I’ll give it a try.

Same result.
The magenta line in the CRJ makes no difference.
That tracks VOR no matter what your Nav source is.

Here are the Bandierante pics


The D930 is not picking up any VOR radial signal from PSO. It will correctly show the station identifier on the PFD, but will not pick up any radials. I actually picked up some VOR signals from quite far away while sitting on the ground (up to 121 miles… :roll_eyes:), so the VOR receiver is working (although probably should not pick up a signal from that far away while on the ground!).

I quite dont get you Habu2u2, you mean you are having the same problem? I just uninstalled ALL the community folder with the same results…

FPS is picking up PSO signal and DME but impossible to track… CDI and/or HSI of any airplane… is not working…

Super weird it is only happening with this particular VOR, at any altitude and on the ground

Here photo, with all mods and addons removed… same results on default C172

Help!

Here another photo, coming from south

Both nav radios tunned to PSO, no HSI tracking, although DME and identifiers are there.

I checked the VOR with the payware GTN750

Here in the box marked It reads only PSO DME, I checked with the close-by MER VOR roughly 25 nm north and it says MER VOR., also the RMI is not working towards the Vor so it’s definitely something wrong…

It seems that PSO is only throwing DME signal but its not working as a VOR.

Help!

It’s definitely not putting out a VOR signal. I double checked worldwide nav aid database and it’s still shown as a VOR. So MS missed something and should be reported to Zendesk.

Now that could be the difference.
I use Navigraph nav data.
It may be another issue with Navblue’s database, which is what the sim uses.
They are notorious for that.
Quite good in Europe where they are located, not so good elsewhere.

I have navigraph but for personal reasons I was not using it, some procedures are missing and in some others the navblue database was better… installed the navigraph database and I can confirm with it, it works normal… therefore the problem is native from the default database…

hopefully Asobo can fix this in the near future.

Thanks all for your help!
