Heading select not following LNAV

Open Beta
1

Version Information

26.1 (16067)

Device Information

iPad mini 7, iPadOS 26.3

Description

While flying using LNAV, the heading in the autopilot panel and the heading select bug on the cockpit PFDs and the HUD do not adjust to follow the LNAV track. Unless you tap the HDG button in the AP panel to “refresh” it, the displayed heading will not match the heading that the aircraft is actually flying.

This can lead to the aircraft unexpectedly veering off course when switching from LNAV to HDG select mode when flying using the autopilot. I’ve noticed this bug on at least the last few versions of the beta.

Able to reproduce on iPad 10th Gen with iPadOS 26.3.

Yeah, I asked about that originally too. When arming LNAV, you would not typically arm your heading too, but keep them separate.

I guess it makes sense realism wise, though it would be nice to at least have the bug not constantly display the selected heading on the PFD while in LNAV mode
