SOLVED: Lose all yoke controls after takeoff

Featured Replies

OK I haven't used the program for a little while. When I started up the program there were several updates to apply. They seem to have been applied fine. I checked the content and nothing shows needing an update.

 

But all of a sudden, I have the ability to take off with my little Cessna 152 but once I'm up in the air I lose all access to my yoke; nothing works. It's like the plane is flying itself. I don't know what changed. It's not like I've completely lost the yoke because I was able to take off successfully. It's only after I'm up in the air that I lose all controls. I checked the external view to prove the controls were not moving anything on the plane.

 

Ideas? I'm dead in the water until I figure out this one.

 

UPDATE: The problem only happens when I am in external mode looking from the outside of the plane. From the cockpit everything is working fine.

 

UPDATE: Found another thread that talked about the same thing: Problem was I was going into Drone Mode so I could not control the aircraft. Once I pressed the "C" key to revert control back to the plane, everything worked correctly. 

 

These are the kinds of things that screw me up because I am such a newbie :-).

So on the ground all your controls work?  But when you depart they don't?

Using the "insert" key to view outside has always been without control of plane. If you use the "end" key you can still control plane.
