Auto Hover has stopped working

An issue with Auto Hover has recently occured on my Ka-50 III Black Shark. It has worked fine up until now, and I know how it works, but recently it has stopped working.

I have tried the following ...

Carried out a repair on DCS World beta

Uninstalled the Ka-50 III module and deleted the MOD folder from the Eagle Dynamics parent folder. Rebooted my PC and reinstalled the Ka-50 III module and carried out a repair again on the beta.

Created a new mission with two Ka-50 III - one hot start, one cold start. I noticed that after reinstalling the Ka-50 III the Auto Hover light came on momentarily when activated in the mission but went off almost immediately and has not functioned since. It makes no difference if I use the hot start or cold start versions.

I can put the Ka-50 III into a hover manually and all functions of the auto pilot work correctly.

I changed the binding on my Hotas and also the default keyboard key press but it made no difference. I changed the keyboard binding back to LALT-T

I think I noticed that the auto hover stopped working after I had made changes to the INS Alignment in one of my existing missions via the mission editor. I changed the INS Alignment to 'Fully realistic' in the 'Realism panel' and 'Normal with Gyro' in the 'At Hot Start Panel'. I have since changed back to 'No alignment or fixtaking needed' to test the system but it makes no difference - the Auto Hover still refuses to work.

This is infuriating, and although I can put the Ka-50 III into a hover for the missions it is infinitely easier with the Auto Hover button working.

HELP!

Thanks

BTW ... I am on version 2.8.3.38080

FIXED! 😀

Here is what I did. I made a backup of my control settings - throttle, jopystick and rudder. I then set the controls for my throttle (this is where I have the binding for auto hover) back to the default controls. I tested the auto hover and it workedI I went back to controls and updated the controls using my backup I had taken earlier and it all works fine again!
