December 9, 200916 yr I purchased a Carenado Cessna C152 to see how it compares with the stock FSX Cessna C152. Guess the autopilot functions thru the Garmin GPSMap 295. Unfortunately I'm not familiar with using that GPS, and for whatever reason a PDF file containing the instructions on how to use the device was not included. Does anyone have a link to the PDF of the Garmin GPSMap 295 so I can explore how to use it, thanks. /s/ Tony Piech
December 10, 200916 yr Moderator Why not open the FSX Learning Center and read the instructions? Fr. Bill AOPA Member: 07141481 AARP Member: 3209010556 Avsim Board of Directors | Avsim Forums Moderator

As Geofa stated, the available GPS (as a pop-up) is for navigational help only.Now, you could set it up with autopilot functions via a third party gauge and manipuation of the aircraft.cfg, or even using the default FS key commands,.....but really, an autopilot in a 152? Seems sacrilegious. :( That baby flies like a dream, and for me, that is how it is enjoyed....by hand.
December 10, 200916 yr OK, guess I'll fly it without the autopilot and see how it goes. /s/ Tony Piech
