perfect thanks for this info. I *think* I might be able to get around this with a flywithlua script....if I'm successful I'll post back. Thanks!

yup, understood, this is what I have. again it's the only command I'm having the issue with, strange... ; ********* AP Button ****************************************** ;Ap Button remapable = 0 default | = 1 remapable command | = 2 remapable datareference | = 3 remapable datareference toggle Ap Button remapable = 1 ;command for AP button ap_button_remapable_cmd = CL650/FCP/ap_eng

sorry that was my fault, I am using CL650/FCP/ap_eng which I can see via the dataref tool is correct. One interesting thing I noticed using DRT is that if I push the AP button in the virtual cockpit, I see command CL650/FCP/ap_eng being used, and I see a dataref for CL650/FCP/ap_eng changing to a value of 1. When I assign the same command to a button on the saitek panel and look at DRT, I do see the command being activated, but there is no corresponding dataref for CL650/FCP/ap_eng being changed to 1. This AP engage function is the only one I'm having this issue with...

any luck getting the AP engage button to work? I'm having the same issue but with the Saitek panels, using the CL650/FMC/ap_eng command..
