Using my Saitek Gear with the 182

I have a full panel setup with all the Saitek gear. I have a few problems. The generator switch on the switch panel does not work for any of the A2A products. All the other switches work fine and do work perfectly on the default aircraft. Also I just purchased the Multi Panel which has the autopilot...

Re: Autopilot issue

My thread right next to this one kinda answers your question. You have to press ARM not ALT when you want the plane to climb or decent to an antitude.

Re: Autopilot ALT Behavior

So pressing the ARM button instead of ALT did solve the problem and the plane went up and down to he altitude I set and stayed there.

Autopilot ALT Behavior

With the AP ON I know I have either VS or ALT options. VS works great as I can select up or down no problem... b...

Re: Accu-sim C172 Trainer - Screenshots

Just flew it from Catalina to Oceanside here is sunny California. With California MegaSceneryEarth and REX Sky/Clouds/Textures. WOW... It was the first time I was a little scared about what I was doing during startup/ climb and landing. I did not do any pre-flight as it was a fresh new un-used airpl...
