No matter what I try, using the default autopilot setting I can set and hold Altitude,Heading etc, but not Airspeed. I have tried adding payware autopilot panels to the aircraft also, but I cannot for the life of me get any AP speedhold with this model.

As there is no Auto-pilot on the Real T1, I doubt it will be supported here.

Hi Hotzoner, 

I can't think of anything that would stop you modding an autopilot into the Hawk. I don't think there is any code in there that would stop you from doing so. 

Did you add the autopilot_available=1 line to the aircraft.cfg to enable autopilot systems?

Hi Rich, Yes I did take a look at that. I believe it is enabled as default. I also tried "autothrottle_arming_required" to =1 also.
I have tried to set speedhold Via FSUIPC also to no avail. This paywear Autopilot I bought, just for a few quid mentions in it's writeup that it should enable autospeedhold to aircraft that has no AP. *Shrug*    It's not the biggest deal though, This is still a magnificent a/c ;)

WEll, I managed to hold speed via the "Fsuipc Speed Hold Toggle" in FSUIPC, and not the "AP Panel Speed Hold" in FSUIPC. That will do for me :)
