HSI Moving map changing orientation MAG/TRUE

Hi guys,

 

I read about magnetic and true heading and there is still something I do not understand. Why is it that my flight plan sequence is presented accurately on the HSI moving map only if I use true heading? Why is it not like that in the A10C? (flight path is identical to the editor)

 

Here is a picture to show you what I mean: true vs magnetic

HSI Moving map changing orientation MAG/TRUE

 

Just noticed when you change between Mag and True that the map on the HSI also rotates. Had a quick search through the bugs forum and couldn't find any other reports so I made a video about it to show it happening.

 

 

Current Open Beta version

Tested on Cauc only currently.

Apart from if I wanted to ;)

 

Seriously though. I tend to switch to True when flying in Blue Flag because it seems closer to the Grid North headings that GCI are giving me to targets from their map view. I may well be wrong though :thumbup:
