Hi James, Thanks for answering. Here is the detailed sequence I use to program the route manager via telnet: fg["/autopilot/route-manager/active"]= 'false' fg["/autopilot/route-manager/input"]= '@clear' fg["/autopilot/route-manager/current-wp"]= '-1' fg["/autopilot/route-manager/input"]= '@posinit' fg["/autopilot/route-manager/input"] = lon,lat@alt ...... etc fg["/autopilot/route-manager/input"]= '@activate' fg["/autopilot/route-manager/input"]= '@jump0' fg["/autopilot/settings/target-agl-feet"]= 2 fg["/autopilot/settings/target-agl-ft"]= 2 fg["/autopilot/settings/gps-driving-true-heading"]= 'true' fg["/autopilot/locks/altitude"]= 'agl-hold' fg["/autopilot/locks/heading"]= 'true-heading-hold' fg["/autopilot/settings/target-speed-kt"]= 30 fg["/autopilot/locks/speed"]= 'THR' The first waypoint set is not the UFO position or a runway but an arbitrary point on the map, followed by other arbitrary points. What happens is that the UFO starts just fine towards the first waypoint, but on arrival it starts to circle it and never proceed forward. I think sometimes this happens on the second waypoint, not necessarily the first one. I've looked through the GPS and route manager classes, but I hope you could enlighten me without having to place debug messages through the source code.
