Does anyone happen to know what is the case in the RW CRJ-700, and how many degrees of deviation each diamond and HSI dot represents when in localizer mode?Īnd as a related question, in the RW CRJ-700 how many degrees of deviation does each HSI dot represent when tracking a VOR ( vice localizer ) signal? I would have expected both displays to agree 'dot for dot'.
For example, when the pink diamond shows the a/c is off course (off the center of the localizer) by 1 dot, the HSI shows a course error of 2 dots. I've noticed when flying a localizer or ILS approach in the default CRJ-700, the localizer deviation on the PFD as depicted by the HSI is different than as indicated by the pink localizer diamond display near the bottom of the attitude indicator.
