Loss of all controls after take-off!!
After take-off and after flying for a short time, I lose all controls. No trim, no ailerons, and no elevator.
Its as if I'm on auto pilot. I can see the ailerons moving, but I cannot bank or turn the plane.
Kind of hard to land in this condition. And no, the control lock on the pop-up shft-3 is not on.

All realism controls set to full right.
Any suggestions.

Thanks

Arnold

It sounds to me like you pressed "z" by mistake. This enables FSX's default autopilot which exhibits the behavior you describe. Just press "z" again to disable it.

Thanks Joe, I think you solved my problem. I had a button on my joystick programmed
for the auto-pilot, and I think I've been hitting it by mistake. I disabled the button and
it seems to bo OK now.

Thanks again
