Cruiser18 Posted September 18, 2014 Share Posted September 18, 2014 First of all, I'm loving this module so far and it's incredibly well-made. ;) I ran into a problem during the ARC system training mission that I cannot quite determine whether it's a intentionally modelled problem with the ARC or its a bug. I set up the ARC to follow #3 beacon and start flying in it's direction. I have a solid morse code signal and i keep around 3000m altitude. I do not reach the beacon though. The needle kept pointing ahead of me and didn't change its mind until I had reached the southern coast. Looking at the map in the kneeboard I could see that I should have reached the beacon long ago. I tried resetting the beacon and now it started leading me inland, and so much off course that I didn't hit the trigger for having found the #3 beacon. I found that when I aligned the Mig21 with the compas needle for the ARC, the needle would often "get stuck" and follow the planes changes in direction. That meant that I could drift as much as 20 degrees off course, and the needle would still say that I was going in the right direction. Anyone else encountered this problem?

zerver Posted September 18, 2014 Share Posted September 18, 2014 Yep, I had this problem just now. I selected sector 2-1 (its default anyway) and selected beacon no. 3. Heading needle (with circle) was pointing straight, even when I over flown the beacon. After I cycled through few channels it started working again (pointing backward). After selecting beacon no. 5 (as instructed) needle was again pointing forward. I was flying at ~3000m, and heard Morse code when channel 3 and 5 were selected.

Justin Case Posted September 18, 2014 Share Posted September 18, 2014 Happened to me as well, over Sukhumi with the same symptoms and solution. http://www.masterarms.se A Swedish Combat Flight Simulator Community. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tango Posted September 18, 2014 Share Posted September 18, 2014 Already reported. Were you in SP or MP, and client or server if MP? Best regards, Tango. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruiser18 Posted September 18, 2014 Author Share Posted September 18, 2014 For me it was in the ARC training mission. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wraith444 Posted September 18, 2014 Share Posted September 18, 2014 I also encountered this problem, during the ARC training mission. It tracked fine on sector 2/1 beacon 3, but once I overflew the beacon and switched to beacon 5 it pointed directly forward and stayed there even as I turned. Toggling to a different beacon and back a couple times fixed it, but it took me a bit to realize there was a problem at first. :S Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-Vampire- Posted September 20, 2014 Share Posted September 20, 2014 Same problem here. Created a free flight in Mission editor. Sector 2/1. -ARK powered -ALtitude above 3000. Station within 120 km. -RSzBN / ARK switched to ARK. -Switched to ARK channel 3 -Morse code sound OK. -Needle always pointing to the nose.... or doesn't correspond... or it is pointing to the correct direction but after it doesn't track the station... This issues other ARK channels too. History is written by the victors! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tango Posted September 20, 2014 Share Posted September 20, 2014 Temporary fix: make a LEFT HAND turn until the needle comes alive (the station is now to the right of the aircraft), then turn right until the needle is pointing straight ahead. The beacon is now off the nose. Best regards, Tango. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IonicRipper Posted September 21, 2014 Share Posted September 21, 2014 I also encountered this problem and I can confirm Tango's temporary fix worked for me. i5 4590 @ 3.77GHz | GTX 1060 6GB | 16GB 1600MHz DDR3 | 1TB HDD+500GB HDD | Win10 Home X64 [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
