    I'm at cruise altitude and pressing the microphone to turn off control lock but it's not working. i cannot move the control column now, nothing happens when I press the microphone.

    how can I unlock it, i'm going to die otherwise

    EDIT: the autopilot can move the control column, weird!. and yes my joystick is workin

        @b3lt3r thanks. but i read the thread but don't see anyone unable to unlock the flight column mid-flight. I'm yankin on my joystick but it's not unlocking. and pressing the microphone also does not unlock it.

          @dresoccer4 ok - hopefully this will go into the upcoming patch - Martyn seemed to imply that as he said "That's something we can simulate"

            @dresoccer4 Currently it's not possible to remove the lock in-flight but that will be possible in the next update, and you'll be able to break the lock with sufficient force, as per the description of the real aircraft on that other thread.

              ok thank you. unfortunately this meant I crashed and burned in flight.

              i took off and enabled autopilot, which was able to control the control stick perfectly. I only took over manual control when approached top of descent, and that's when I noticed I could not control the plane. it was a long, terrifying descent after that
