January 26, 20188 yr Been struggling with cockpit improvement on the 340. If you don't like the AP you can create a popup window and put the stock FSX beech baron radio popup in there. I run it and GTN750 on second monitor ( along with windowed avidyne) Still seeing 60 FPS and everything works. I ditched the garmin 530 one and moved the garmin 530 2 up in its place. Then I put the C340 autopilot where the garmin 530 2 was. It's of course oversized but at least if you want to use the stock C340 AP its higher on the panel. 2 Monitors, 240G SSD.FSX:Steam with UTX USA Scenery, ORBX Base, Buildings, Airports, NorCAL, Steam addon- Airports, Trees, Milviz310R, Alabeo310R, Flight1 GTN750/650, Carenado- TBM850, Baron, Arrow, V35, F33, C441, 421C, Phenom 100, Premier 1A, RA Duke B60 V2, RA Duke Turbine V2, Active Sky Next always running real WX.

January 26, 20188 yr My remedy was to add a Saitek Multi Panel. Provides the AP functions at the touch of a finger, mounted to the top of my yoke's housing. Also use Spad.Next to customize the interface between the multi-panel and the sim. I prefer to control an AP with the mouse. Do have to say that especially Cessna placed the AP functions in a location not conducive to simulators.
