Beaver autopilot question

[Didg 0]

When I engage the Nav Hold switch on the autopilot, the aircraft will not follow the course I've plotted into the GPS.

Is there a Nav/GPS switch somewhere? :?

Cheers.

afraid there isn't, Didg. at least not in the Standard Beaver - i don't own it but i guess it ain't in the BeaverX either, 'cause i suppose the plane's too old to link that modern technology with the autopilot (would be too unrealistic). You'll have to use the HDG-function of the AP. Cheers

Ok, that's cool.

I don't use the AP much in the Beaver anyway.

Thanks for the info.

What you could do is assign a key to this command. When you don that it will work fine.

Thanks Mathijs, I hadn't thought of that. 8)

Have made a new panel.cfg file with Autopilot, Shortcut to GPS and Radiostack. No black line on the popup gps
