I attempted to fly an RNAV approach today with my AP100, from my 430W. When I pushed GPSV it showed gpsv in small letters and FLG in large letters. It did not capture the vertical path. I could not find any reference to the FLG in the manual.:confused:

I just read the ILS with Sorcerer thread and believe Dane answered my question. I was not on final when I pushed GPSV and got the FLG message. I will try next flight and arm it when I am on final and below the glide path.

That's the ticket! If you're not in Alt Hold mode and under the GS, it won't ARM. Thanks!
