Control settings. HDG where is it?

Featured Replies

I got wingflex autopilot device. But cannot find HDG in the sim settings... I found one for G1000 cessna. The setting is called PFD ... (bla bla, don't remember exactly). What comes to any other plane, I cannot find any option. Got altitude, vertical speed, speed but no HDG...

Maybe it is called a bit differently? Would appreciate any help :)

Type MINUS and PLUS and assign to the HGD selector for left and right.

Freshly retired after 41 unforgettable years on the Boeing 747. The flying days may be behind me, but the memories never will be. Now I have the privilege of sharing those experiences—and continuing to learn alongside the next generation of pilots—in the Level D simulator. Aviation has a way of keeping us all pilots, no matter how many hours we've logged.

Try searching for the autopilot heading bug commands rather than just HDG. In the MSFS control list they are usually something like Heading Bug Increase and Heading Bug Decrease, or sometimes only show up if you search for increase/decrease rather than heading.

Also make sure you are not filtering by an aircraft-specific section only. I would bind the left/right knob turns to the generic autopilot heading bug increase/decrease commands first, then test it in a simple default aircraft before chasing per-aircraft bindings.

Heading select toggle: I have set up. Will try to look for heading bug. I am not by the sim now, but if I am not mistaken I did not find anything similar what you advise, by searching "HEADING". Or may be I was not attentive enough. Thank you anyways :)
