Fly to?
Hi all, my first post here.
I've been flying BS for a week or so - enjoying the challenge.
I've read this thread and been trying to understand/master the "auto pilot". I grasp/understand the basic features.
However - still I don't understand how to use;
Route mode switch and the DH/DT switch.
Currently I use "default settings" (as it is in campaign missions, warm started). And I manually direct the chopper roughly pointing to target point, with speed & altitude - and making small changes as time passes by to destination. (I guess it is "heading hold" function that keeps me on track to the heading when I release the trim)
However - reading here it seems that the auto pilot is capable of "automatic flight to track/destination". I don't understand how that is done.
I would like a step-by-step instrutcion how to "autofly" to a target point;
1) At liftoff - I ascend right up - say 200 m.
2) Now what - how shall I set up auto pilot to auto-turn and auto-fly to next target/nav-point?
my current technique - manually pointing ship to target, releasing trim, flying away - I need to correct heading now and then.. and watch altitude. A 50 min flight to target area gets boaring... and dangerous at high time acceleration...
regards all, thanx for a great forum!
