Ok, so after the new update and hotfix I went in to just fly around a little. When I did I noticed a few things. Let me tell you what I fly in the Sim. I fly the cessna 172 with the g1000. I created a flight plan with little nav map as I have been doing for a while now. Loaded the flight plan and began my flight. I noticed the Nav log was different. Going direct from one airport to another The Nav Log had three waypoints. The first one I expect was my enrout climb, the second was I assume the direction or bearing to fly to reach the airport. The third I assume was the actual bearing to the runway. As I was flying I decided to let the auto pilot do its thing. What I noticed was that I was flying on course at the correct heading or bearing, how ever I was not flying the magenta line as as it always did but now flying of to the right side of it. Has anyone else had this issue
If you look closer youâll see neither left or right mfd show you flying the same path. If you hit v it shows anotherâŠ
I dont understand what you mean Phineasfogg
The map zoom does not accurately show you on the line at the default zoom level. Unfortunately, the Zoom knob is bugged in many cases, but as long as the Scoreboard Annunciator reads GPS in green next to the AP indicator, you are guiding on course.
The G1000 in the planes is stock, no frills, effectively not far removed from August 2020 launch, which isnât saying much.
Your options are:
-
Stay with the Stock GPS as you have now.
-
Install Working Title G1000 0.4.0 which is essentially No. 1 but with working Engine Pages for the MFD.
-
Download the free G1000 NXi by Working Title from the MarketPlace. Itâs far ahead of the stock Garmin, but still Early Access, meaning there are many things not working compared to 1 & 2 but WT will deploy a new version weekly that fixes bugs and adds features.
Working Title was hired by Asobo to fix the Garmins. Eventually everyone will have the NXi when it gets integrated into sim core code.
Another alternative is to fly the Steam C172. I donât know if Asobo have worked on it, or itâs some sort of back engine from the WT upgrade, but itâs suddenly started behaving itself (it used to periodically try to fly you to the moon or the earthâs core 
). Itâs still not quite right I think but itâs way way better now.
Or just fly straight VFR and/or use VORs and ADFs.
I have experienced the same problem. I fly the 172 steam version. I also use Little Navmap to create my flight plans. If I creat the flight plan in the world map everything seems to work O.K. If I use Little Navmap loaded flight plans, it doesnât. Something was changed in this last update that has messed up the flight planner. I do not like the automatically added âTime Climb, Descent, etc.â. I wish they could be turned off. I think these were added for the Xbox.
FYI
We have a new master Pinned Post for the Working Title G1000 NXi. Please join the conversation there:
how do you get the Steam c172? I ask because I didnt buy msfs2020 through Steam. it was bought form the Xbox app on game pass, it is the pc version not the xbox version
I think the game pass is the basic version. To get the steam 172, you need to buy one of the paid versions, List of Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 Planes and Aircraft | Windows Central , itâs.only part steam, gauges but still has the g1000. If you like barebones flying try the 152
yesterday i noticed the auto pilot worked as it should until i looked around the cockpit with mouse right click button
i have set a switch just for localiser which results in a work around (airbus 320 neo ) pc version

I had the same issue of drifting t the right. Both on VOR and ILS. Cessna Caravan(stock G1000) in Mumbai Rwyâs 14 & 27. GS was captured and the descend was too fast and way short of Rwy. Manually landed.
Unable to set a proper flight plan (G1000) now. I say now coz when I had the G1000 a month or so ago, it worked beautifully. Unfortunately the G1000 Nxi gave so much trouble, it was uninstalled and reverted to the G1000. Sorry state with MSFS 2020 with so much money spent. Little joy.
Sorry guyâs, the intention was to âaddâ the quote (prior post) by ReliableSteam82 and inadvertently pushed Blockquote.
Auto-pilot doesnât work for me on smaller aircraft (Icon A5, JMB VL-3 Vertigo, Beechcraft Bonanza etc), I tired it on A320 Neo and after three hours, my distance to the destination didnât change. For some reason, it kept circling after some time over the Pacific (Asobo Studio to Microsoft HQ flight).
I saved the flight and shut down the computer after over three hours of gaining nothing and have never dared flying the A320 Neo again, except for the Landing Challenges.
I have placed all Working Title Garmin systems files (obtained from their website, latest versions) into the Community folder but I donât see any change at all in the navigation system.
What am I not doing right?
As far as my experience is with the A320 neo AP hasnât worked correctly since the start. Its been a bug for a very long time. I wish they would look at it because its very frustrating that you set your flight plan and take off and then find its not working correctly most of the time with the hight ive inputted and continues on its own same when descending.
Bear in mind that several stock aircraft do not have autopilot enabled. Of these, some can be made to recognize autopilot by editing the Systems.cfg files for the aircraft. Some canât if the .cfg files are encrypted by MS/Asobo.
Given the immense variation of reports on this extremely dated post (which predates at least three forum category reorganizations), itâs being moved to #community-support:tech-support
How do you do that with Xbox S/X thats the problem ms should look at the A320 neo and get it fixed for xbox S/X Users. Pc users have other options to hand but we havent yet, lets hope.
Lets hope it will get done then moving the problem. AP want a good overhaul with MSFS A320 neo its a shame its a good aircraft, but its putting people off in using it.
Your general statement about the A320neo AP not working correctly has no details. For months Iâve been flying mostly the Asobo A320neo along with the LVFR variants that use the same AP without ANY AP issues (unless I caused them). If anything, I am amazed and delighted using this rock-solid AP in various flying conditions and locations. SIDs, STARs, and approaches are flown correctly and accurately. ILS GS and RNAV GP are captured and descend properly to DH.
Can you provide more information about the âbugâ?
Thank you for your reply. Iâve explained before few years ago the the AP on the A320 neo working to the inputs put in to the FMS. There has been bugs on this system for as long as I remember. If you are on PC this might no beva problem to you. On Xbox S it has and have reported the fact. Others in the forum have also experienced the AP bugs or buggie. Sometimes the system would work a treat on a flight but on more other occasions you would have go fly by hand to arrive at the destinations because it would more likely descend on its own account or dive out of control. It would follow the green line then unexpectedly veer left or right on its own away from the flightplan you have imputed. This has been the case for a long time. If you havenât experience these happenings you have been very luck indeed. Thats what I mean about not working correctly.
