Whenever I start a flight with my H-1, the autopilot is active, and since it doesn't have a lichted switch, I don't notice it most of the time.  Is there some reason why this is happening? ???

If the H-1 is a add-on, its just a lttle programming somewhere. Just make a switch in the panel for it or get used to hitting Z whenever you get into it. Tongue

Or if it's your 'default' flight (ie the one you always start with) start the prog, switch off the AP and anything else you want (eg engine(s) - wots an H1 how many engines as it got ???) put it at the stand or parking place you want at the airfield of your choice and then re-save the flght and set it as your default.

Voila - you've got the best of all worlds Wink

Thanks guys!

Saratoga, one of the best things about the H-1 model I have is the cockpit.  Very intricately put together, so any change would upset everything in there.  I am incredibly hesitant to change anything in there, so I think I'm gonna try Rollerball's idea.  Thanks much, tho!

Rollerball, the H-1 is the aircraft you see to the left of this post.  It was built by Howard Hughes in the late 30s and then rebuilt by James Wright and his team in the early 90s.  Still holds the record as the fastest single-engine prop over land.
