Autopilot not working on Modern

[MatthewM]

There is no clickspot for the autopilot switch in the modern version, so the kings autopilot doesn't work

Hey mate, any luck if you press and hold down the AP Button on the panel for a second or two until it engages? If you just click it, it won't engage.

So it does...

 

Cheers XD

From the KAP-140 Pilot's Guide:

We simulate the software versions 03/01 and later, so you have to push and hold the button for more than 0.25 seconds.

The autopilot in the Classic DC3 works fine.

In the Modern DC3 the Autopilot lever at the pedestal does not work.  No click region.  

Clicking the Autopilot button on the radio panel does not work either.  Should you hold it as suggested above?

As already pointed above, you must press and HOLD for at least 0.25 seconds the AP button on the radio panel (KAP-140 unit).
