-
Hi…in lots of situation i am having problems…
I switch autopiilot, but its not steering aircraft - i select steer mode, altitude hold- but aircaft is not flying on auto? I think i am in parameters and connstraint unless i am missing somethingAlso there are times when my TFR autopilot is acting - i-e- its just giving me clues, pull up cue, and fr box on HUD but its not flying the plane…Like i am in blended mode, and cant activate the full auto mod? PPlease help me

Have you pressed the ADV pushbutton on Misc panel? Note that if you also set the autopilot right switch on (alt or att hold) than TFR autopilot disengage. You can read the TFR autopilot status on the ADV button, witch is double labeled (Active/STBY). That’s what i remember…

What TFR mode do you use? I believe you are in STBY… First choose one mode (for example Norm) into TFR MFD page. Then choose between Steering SEL or HDG SEL Autopilot steering mode and finally press the ADV button that will lights Up the ACTIVE label. It should work now!

Yep thats probably it…didnt engage str sel nor hdg sel mode ! Thanks

Are you sure that ALL parameters are ok (Landing Gear UP, AOA limits…)?

Just type HTTP: instead of HTTP (without : ). -
Now it is ok.

Here’s the steps i use. (note the need for minimum speed, and for the left hardpoint on.).
- On start, select TFR on one of the MFCD’s.
- Turn on power with OSB4,
- On sensor panel, RDR switch to ALT, and Left Hard point switch to ON.
- Switch the AUTO fly ON from the FLCS panel (back left panel).
- Select TFR ride options with OSB2
HARD (2g, -0.9, flies closest to obstacles)
SOFT (2g, -0.5,)
SMTH (2g, -0.9 peak to peak, less aggressive) - Select Mode with OSB20, 19, 17
NORM, Highest accuracy, but biggest radar signature. AP allowed. Manual or Auto VERTICAL.
LP1, (low probability of intercept, reduced turn rate, and no AP allowed.
WX, during rain only. Can be enabled with the WX switch on the ICP. - Select clearance with OSB 11,12,13,14. Get warning if 75ft below.
1000, 500, 300, 200,
VLC Only over water or flat terrain, reduced turn rate, and AP disabled. - In flight SET speed to > 0.55 Mach
- Switch the ADV MODE switch on the MISC Panel (AP) from STBY to ACTIVE
