Autopilot just doesnt work
Autopilot just doesnt work
I'm growing increasingly frustrated with this product. I cannot find a tutorial or the documentation to read. How do you use the autopilot? It does not work like the other Autopilots from other developers. Where can I learn to use this? Its just unusable to me now. I wanted the latest Airbus from Latin VFR but I'm seriously rethinking that now.

The next time I fly and stream live, I will post a link.
One important thing to do is to map your controls for the primary and tertiary commands. This allows you to push and pull the knobs, so that you can activate managed or op modes.
In an Airbus aircraft, "managed mode" refers to the autopilot setting where the aircraft automatically manages both pitch (altitude) and power (thrust) to maintain a desired airspeed and altitude, while "OP mode" (or "open descent mode") allows the pilot to control the aircraft's descent profile more freely, typically by setting a desired airspeed without the autopilot actively managing altitude constraints.
