Hello,

In the Piper Warrior, for example, how do you display the autopilot controls? In the aircraft config file, it indicates that there is an autopilot available, but I can't find any cockpit controls for it. Can an FSX default-type autopilot 2-D display be brought up somehow?

Regards.

Worked it out myself, by trial and error! You have to edit the panel config file for the particular JF plane:

- Add a line in the [Window Titles] list for your new panel.
- Copy a Radio Stack Window from a default plane panel config file (eg from the Mooney Bravo), and paste it into your JF panel config file, giving it an appropriate new Window number and ident name.

You can change the size of the panel by changing the windowsize_ratio

I tend to prefer the JF Flying Club planes to the default ones, as they handle so much better.
