Hello, I agree, minimum should be an explanation how the AP works, thanks for consideration.

I guess Autopilot is like an Airbus, each HDG IAS and ALT dial is engaged by "pulling" the dial with your middle mouse button and enabling autopilot. There's also a nav button for MSFS created flightplans!

The autopilot works as it is supposed to work in a Boeing 717.

AUTO FLIGHT - activates the autothrottle on the ground when it over 40%, and turns on/off the autopilot in flight.

- Right-clicking the corresponding knobs will set and hold the current SPD, HDG or ALT value.
The pilot can also select SPD, HDG or ALT by “dragging” the knob with the left mouse button or scrolling the mouse wheel.
The pilot can then press the middle mouse button to activate the mode and the autopilot will follow the selected value.

- the FMS SPD button activates the FMS speed hold mode.
- the NAV button activates FMS lateral control.
- the PROF button activates the vertical mode (maintaining the vertical FMS profile).
- the APPR/LAND button activates approach mode.
