I enjoy flying with SkyDemon a lot and use it frequently for flight preparation and execution. Recently I discovered a not so beneficial behavior during navigation along a longer flight.

It was a cross country flight to a certain point but with no landing. Instead we returned on the same but reversed route to the starting point. Let's say our routing was Point A - Point B - Point C - Point D - Point C - Point B - Point A. During navigation when we reached Point B SkyDemon skipped all further Points and directed us back to Point A, even though we still had most of the planned flight ahead of us.

One could now suggest that we plan A - B - C - D and then, after reaching D, reverse the route for the return flight but then we would not have the correct timings and weight and balance before the actual flight.

Is there a way to force SkyDemon to follow all waypoints in the planned order?

In the Pilot Log it is possible to tap the correct next waypoint and select it for direct routing but in this case the log looses all information about previously flown legs.

I'm using the latest version on Android. Any suggestions would be welcome.

Thanks & best regards,

Peter

Seems very similar to this scenario:

SkyDemon is actually designed to cope with this, and I just tested it and it seemed to work. I created user waypoints A, B, C and D in roughly a straight line with a route exactly as you described. Because they're on top of each other SkyDemon uses your track over the ground in flight to disambiguate during flight.

Perhaps you could share a picture of the route?
