The two TACAN channel knobs behave differently


Recommended Posts

Posted (edited)

The right TACAN channel knob is inconsistent with user expectations and different from the left TACAN channel knob.

Most knobs work by using press+drag, so naturally one would use that for the TACAN channel knobs.

Current behavior:

  • Left knob: first digit changes
  • Right knob: X/Y band changes

As I could already change the X/Y band with a simple click, I see no reason to map press+drag differently on this knob.

The intended way to change digits seems to be the mouse-wheel, but that seems to be inconsistent with all other knobs on the plane.

Suggestion:

  • Left-knob or right-knob click+drag = change channel
  • Left-knob or right-knob mousewheel = change channel (for people that are already used to this, plus it works nicely)
  • Right-knob mouse-clicks = change X/Y band
