Chrislux1 1 Posted October 1, 2021 Share Posted October 1, 2021 I installed CRJ70 from Aerosoft shop two weeks ago. I am using it with MS FS2020 under Windows 10. Installation went well, I did some flights already, but since some days the autopilot master switch does not work any more. When pressed with the mouse left key, it just flickers and the disengage signal sounds. I did already de-install and reinstall the whole package, but no improvement. I use Saitek Flight controls Y65-F (throttle quadrant and joystick). I did deactivate any key assignment of the A/P Master switch to the flight controls, no change. I simply cannot get the autopilot engaged. Who can help me out? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You need to post screen shots so people can see the messages on the screens Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chrislux1 1 Posted October 2, 2021 Author Share Posted October 2, 2021 Poudelou: It doesn't change whether the FD is engaged or not. All other buttons work, except the A/P master switch. I could solve the problem once again by de-installing and re-installing the CRJ, but after one normal flight the problem reappeared,, when I opened the MSFS2020 and tried to start a new flight.

Chrislux1 1 Posted October 2, 2021 Author Share Posted October 2, 2021 LesOReilly: I enclose a screen shot, but it won't be very helpful I guess: Ypou can see that f.i. the Speed button is working, but the AN Eng button does not! When clicked on it just flickers and beeps as it does when disengaged. Please login to display this image. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poudelou 6 Posted October 2, 2021 Share Posted October 2, 2021 Hello Chrislux To activate the autopilot the following requirements need to be fulfilled: • All flight control computers (FCC) are operative • At least one channel of horizontal trim is available • At least one yaw damper is engaged • At least one IRS system is available • At least one air data computer (ADC) is available • No significant instability of the aircraft Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chrislux1 1 Posted October 2, 2021 Author Share Posted October 2, 2021 Hello Poudelou! Your answer brought the solution! After having activated the IRS and the Trim and Yaw it works fine. I simply was too impatient in testing the AP. Thank you very much for your advice! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
