1.  Upon takeoff, my plane goes into a vertical climp until it stalls and falls to the ground.  2.  I have tried every way possible to set the autopilot and have not had any success at all.  Any guidance to get me up and flying would be greatly appreciated!!!!!  Thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!







Elevator trim set ?



Of course.  But that still would not explain not being able to set autopilot!   Cry

Autopilot doesn't work on 767 and 757

I have had my 767 and 757 for quite some time now and i haven't been able to get the autopilot to work at all.  When ever i try to activate it only speed and match work but not altitude or heading or vertical speed.  Actually the gauge for vertical speed doesn't even show the numbers.  I can't get the gauges to light up either and it's been very annoying because i have tried to download the updates but they don't help at all Angry .  If you can help me fix this i would really appreciate it.

First of all, did you purchase the aircraft from Captain Sim? second..although you can work the autopilot with limited function without programming the FMC, have you input data into the FMC and tried the AP? have you read the manuals on working the AP? if you answer yes to all the above question and you still can't get it to work, have you tried a redownload and then reinstall?

First of all: don't press HOLD below the HDG select knob. In order to make HDG work, press the knob with your right mouse button and select the desired heading. That should activate heading capture.

Altitude hold works as follows: on the MCP select your desired altitude with the knob. Don't press HOLD or anything. To capture your altitude use the Vertical Speed mode. Press V/S and select your vertical speed. If the selected altitude is below your current altitude, select a negative vertical speed. If it's above - select a positive rate of climb. And that's it. When approaching selected altitude, the AP will automatically capture it and switch to ALT HOLD mode. Read the manual, it's there for ya.

The Captain Sim 767 is an advanced and complex airplane to fly. You really need to read the manuals as well as reading through the forum here for information and tips on flying it. There is plenty in here.

It would also be a good idea to view the video tutorials HERE. Although they were done in the CS 757, the similarity is so close that you should be able to follow it in the 767 and that will be enough to get you started.

Hope this helps.

hi there,

i know all the stuff with irs, etc. etc.
it is not the first airplane i try to fly, so please dont send me any links to tutorial videos:) only for your information, never had any problems with the cs757 though.

but it seems as if the airplane has a problem with some systems, mostly win7.
i use win7 aswell, never had any problems with the 757.

i can run the autopilot ( lights are working) flight director is moving. but the aircraft simply doenst follow the flightdirector.

the only thing that works with the autopilot is vertical speed.

speed, heading is not working at all.
- not with the heading button(i know right click on heading sel Smiley )
- not with lnav
same with speed,
-not with ias
-not with vnav

what is worng with this airplane?

btw. fsupic 4,53 is installed.

its a shame, that we pay a lot of money and nothing happens.

if it is a problem with win7, there should be a fix. first of all because it says MINIMUM requirements winxp or vista.

and even more because it is already working with the 757...


PLEASE HELP ME!
