OK. So I'm learning the systems and this wonderful GRT HXr more and more each time I fly.
I'm trying to set it up to do a fully-coupled GPS/RNAV WAAS approach, but I can't get it to do the vertical/glideslope part....it stays at the altitude that it was holding prior to hitting the approach fix while it's tracking the GPS COURSE perfectly.
I'm selecting the approach in the GNS430W and activating it. The autopilot is ON, and I'm using the HDG bug to turn the assigned vectors toward the fix on the approach at the assigned (A/P-held) altitude. I hit Direct To-Ent-Ent for the assigned approach fix in the 430W...
Somebody please walk me though it from there.
TIA
