There is a P-51 autopilot mod by pxllux . It's easy to install and it works great. The autopilot requires a 3 button sequence of the radio freq buttons for its commands

I programmed it into a single CH throttle button with 8 button pushes for each mode:   Level flight engage (3 pushes) - Off (radio button) (1 push) - Disengage (3 pushes) - Off (radio button) (1 push).  Then 8 more button pushes for Altitude & bank hold.

If I want to use level flight back to back, I just quickly cycle thru the 8 Hold button pushes and its ready for level flight to engage. I found the Off radio button is needed so the wrong freq button is not set for the next engage or disengage. To use the radio, a freq button can be pressed as usual without affecting the autopilot since the autopilot requires a 3 button sequence.

Does this mod work with DCS 2.9? With the previous version it worked perfectly and I reinstalled DCS 2.9 and I can't get it to work, any ideas?

Why? When would you use it?

The P-51D-25 has a very high fidelity flight model.

Just trim it for level, "hands-off" flight.
