Control lock

[Shalomar]

I almost always put the control lock on when I shut down the 182. However I notice that when I return to the cockpit the control lock is not in at first. Then when I am verifying controls free and independent suddenly the control lock appears and engages.

For a demo of this issue see this vid:

I have the same issue too, i think everyone does. i also think A2A is aware and working on it. hopefully in the next update it will be resolved.

Yes the yoke must be in line with the control locking pin in order for control lock to be engaged. Hence whilst its 'armed' in the sim and as soon as you move your yoke to the required position the control lock can fit through the correct holes.

Hi,

Seems the problem is not resolved with the last patch.

Yes if the control lock is armed then the pin will drop into place as soon as the yoke moves to line the holes up.

thanks

However the lock should pop into place automatically when clicking cold and dark button, it doesn't now.

the issue i think everybody is having (including myself) is that you go fly, land, park and secure the airplane which includes installing the control lock. then the next time you come back to the airplane to fly, the control lock is not installed as you left it. then the first time you push the control wheel forward, the control lock installs itself.
