Hello, Yes I tried the disengage bar first, after realizing that that wasn't going to work, i try hitting "Z". I hear the alarm and "autopilot disengage" but it is still engaged!  Undecided

My Ap works just fine..at least the LNAV and VNAV. Just made a flight LEZL-LFLL and smooth as silk...but for the HDG switch. Once radar contact started vectoring for approach, I switched from LNAV to HDG, but nothing happened at all. HDG lock button lights up, but despite moving the heading knob, the plane did nothing, so full manual approach and no ILS landing...Am I doing something wrong??? I need my plane respond to the headings!

Thanks!

Autopilot not disengaging solved - at least for me.

I too had the exact same problem and a number of other issues relating to non functioning sounds, pitot lights not going out gear lever not working and autopilot problems.  I had these problems with the panel WITHOUT the VC per the ACE configurator.  I figured something wasn't loading right so I reset to run with the VC and all of my issues were solved.  I am now going to try to remove the VC again and see if anything is fixed without it now.  If not, I suspect that there is a problem with the non - VC mode not loading some gauges correctly.  Perhaps Captainsim can look into this problem for the next patch.  I hope this helps!  Good Luck!!

To get the heading to function you have to press the heading toggle button with a RIGHT mouse click.

Has anyone been succesful at solving the autopilot disengage problem in 2D Mode?  I haven't (it only works right in VC mode) and I filled out a support ticket to captain sim which was cancelled without a fix.  I can only assume that I have missed something simple or it will be fixed with the next SP.  Anyone have any thoughts - I really need only 2D for performance reasons.  Any help or insights would be most appreciated!

Are there any updates to fix this problem in the 2D? I would run the VC, but it's to laggy for my system!

Hi, Im new to this kinda autopilots stuff, although i have used many addons since i first started playing about  4 years ago, i havnt come across an autopilot this detailed.

I cant seem to engage the altitude hold and vertical climb buttons and the auto pilots dont seem to work at all as there are no lights when i engage the autopilot, i read the other post and could anyone please in detail explain how to do the Irs alighnment and such. I read the manual and it was quite confusing.


Thanks.

Please do not use default keys for the AP ops, but its custom controls only.
We are working on abilily to assigne hot key commands to important things like the MCU in the 4.2

Are just interested in finding out what is happening.

I was flying with the 757-200 V1400 and everything was fine.
Bought F-Block update.. and NOW the AP is not working at ALL??

Have Alligned IRS , have input'ed info in CDU.

When you flip the FD switch, on the screen I can se Alt hold flashing ONCE.
Everytime I try to push Alt hold .. it shows on the screen for 0.5 sec and gone. Angry This is the same with VS and Heading hold.
Nomatter what I do, its INOP. And when you try to use the Z-key nothing happens.. FSX does respond on
disconectiong the AP with voice response "AutoPilot disengaged".

The AP is completly N/A

HOW to correct this problem? Undecided
