Title: Help with Autopilot
Post by andrew on Aug 27th, 2008 at 12:23am
Hi Guys,
i seem to be missing some steps when trying to engage the autopilot. Push the power button, the light comes on when i push it but as soon as i release it, the light goes off. All the other buttones seem to do the same thing

any help would be good

Andrew

Hit the Power button then hit the Engage button.

Then do all the other buttons.

Andrew,

In the center of the AP control panel, there are three toggle switches that must be flipped "up" before you apply power to the AP.  Have you switched them on?

yep they are all on.

Lets just say i start from the beginning. Just hit Ctrl E and manually turn the radios on. Nothing more nothing less.

i take off.
Make sure all AP toggle switches are up.
hit the power button

nothing. the liht will go on an turn off straight away

andrew

are your generators on? Go to your Overhead view and make sure you have power... if they are showing red light off, click to reset and then start them, then try turning on your autopilot power.

hope this helps  :)
