Autopilot/FDE Question Please?

Featured Replies

Is it possible to edit the values for flight control inputs when the autopilot is engaged?

Can you be a bit more specific?
When the AP is on, for many aircraft, the bank angle when turning is VERY shallow. I would like to increase this.Even some of the fighter aircraft I have, use a very shallow bank angle.I would like to 'match' some the aircraft I have, so making it simpler to use autopilot when in formation with other aircraft.

The adjustments I make for the B744 are found in the aircraft cfg file. Find the section [autopilot], and here you can adjust various values. The one you are referring to is: max_bank=n. Yours may showing 10 or similar. You can increase this value. However, be careful when adjusting other figures if you don't know what they mean or what effect they might have on your aircraft.Chris David
