Courseplanner Set Autopilot

From Myoddweb.com

Jump to: navigation, search

With this dialog you can change your autopilot[1] basic settings[2].

Change the autopilot default settings.
  • Vertical Speed (fpm) - Set your target climb/descent rate.[3]
  • Altitude (feet) - Set your target altitude.
  • Heading - Set your target heading.
  • Airspeed (Knots) - Your target speed, (in knots[4]).

Note: Your aircraft has to have an autopilot in order for those settings to actually change. Some autopilot also only manage heading and rate of climb, (airspeed is typically only managed by the jets and/or bigger aircrafts).
