bkthunder Posted July 29, 2019 Share Posted July 29, 2019 I was trying to do an ILS approach at Senaki and for the life of me couldn't get the neeldes in the ILS gauge to work. I followed the standard procedure which is to tune the frequency on the NAV radio, and turn it on. I could hear the ILS morse code correctly, so the radio was tuned properly, but the needles don't move at all. Tried messing around with switching on/off other radios, but no results. Wondering if this is a bug..

Tango Lima Posted July 29, 2019 Share Posted July 29, 2019 (edited) One possible possibility, why the ILS not work is If the wind comes from the opposite direction then is the ILS not in use. (Or if you have a Tailwind) The wind must be always head on to have a working ILS Station.

Spyderpig421 Posted August 27, 2019 Share Posted August 27, 2019 So in dcs the ils only work if the runway is in use? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramsay Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 So in dcs the ils only work if the runway is in use? Correct. Note: There is a bug in DCS 2.5.x Caucasus where, for light 1-6 knot head winds, the ILS (and markers) may turnoff for the active ATC runway. i9 9900K @4.7GHz, 64GB DDR4, RTX4070 12GB, 1+2TB NVMe, 6+4TB HD, 4+1TB SSD, Winwing Orion 2 F-15EX Throttle + F-16EX Stick, TPR Pedals, TIR5, Win 10 Pro x64, 1920X1080 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Irishlad200000 Posted August 30, 2019 Share Posted August 30, 2019 It will be wind direction! I fly RL Light Aircraft and have to say DCS beats even P3D and Xplane in some things! ATC might be primitive in DCS, but they will not let you take off with a tail wind! TAS True Air Speed less makes the take off run shorter! Headwind only or crosswind Effect!
