Solution AlexCaboose Posted February 21, 2021 Solution Share Posted February 21, 2021 Yes, that's correct. Alt or Attitude hold is required to turn on the autopilot. 1 476th vFG Website, 476th vFG Discord, 476th vFG Pipeline Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bunny Clark Posted February 21, 2021 Share Posted February 21, 2021 (edited) It's a bit weirdly labeled, but if you look at the pitch switch it's also the Autopilot master switch. The center position is "A/P Off" so you need to move it either up or down to enable Autopilot. You don't need Altitude Hold enabled for Autopilot though, you can move it to the Attitude Hold position too. EDIT: Tangentially, you don't need to return the Roll switch to center when you disable Autopilot either. If you want to stay in an auto steering mode just leave it set, then when you re-enable Autopilot with the Pitch switch it'll already be set.
