AP switch

[maddog453]

The AP switch in the146 cockpit doesn't work. I can click on it all day and nothing happens. I hit the K key on my keyboard and the AP button lights up

Am I doing something wrong?

Also the AP keeps disconnecting on its own randomly while operating throughout the flight profile.

Again am I doing something wrong?

Thanks

@maddog453 The AP activation button is located on the pedestal next to the YD one. You have to have the FD activated before engaging AP. Then select the desired altitude/ FL to be reached and press the button to arm. Same with heading. Once airborne and established in the desired flight phase you can press the AP button.
It works perfect for me without any problem.

@alh Thanks. That maybe why it disconnects so many times almost making it unuseable.
