Radar shutting off

Greyghost · 03-26-07, 01:51 PM

Not sure whats going on but all of a sudden my radar shuts off on its own. I'll turn it back on and 2 seconds later it shuts off again. Any ideas on what is causing this?

There are 2 settings for radar, single sweep and continuous sweep. Are you on continuous sweep? Mine seems to stay on OK. Also, you can focus your radar in one direction. It is a little buggy, and I had to play with the 3D toggle and knobs, as well as the menu bar buttons.

I posted a bug concerning the radar, if you are running a sweep and switch to radar view "F9" it switches to Focus.

Not sure if this is what you are experiencing. I was in a Gato.

Yes it is a bug. the radar turns off when the draft reaches 18ft.
