A lot of information here, but it seems that the common message is that I am doing it wrong with 'feature crawling'. My question then is how can one fly a calculated heading without constantly looking at the instruments.
Of course, when I select feature ahead of me, it is just for the reference to keep me within a few degrees of the heading until the next checkpoint. Am I expected to fly in the straight line? I severly doubt my ability there.

What is my instructor telling me? well ....
Our club operates with a different instructor on each day of the week, and therefore I have now flown with almost every instructor. I don't like it but I don't have much choice there. I reckon my difficulties are partly due to every instructor teaching the same thing slightly different.
