Default LXSIM problem

Maybe getting a local GPS fix which will be stored in your initialization
file(s). At least that's how it (looks like it) works with XCSoar.

I found, with XCSoar, that it started off somewhere in Europe. Running it
on my PC, I boosted the speed to about 7,000 Kts and "flew" it to New
Mexico. Pretty tedious! But, I found that, when I ran it on my Streak with
a GPS fix, it flew locally. I transferred my data files to my PC (IIRC) and
it worked in the states.

I don't know if you can do likewise with your LX, but it might be worth a
try.

Has anyone mastered the LXsim program? I have loaded the North American
database but can't get the simulator aircraft to leave Slovakia. I loaded
Perry TPs and a task, have tried "starting" the task, but get nothing but
a flight near Celjic(?). Any pointers would be appreciated.
