S-Tec 55 Autopilot (From 172 Premium Panel)

[richdmoore]

Hello. I purchased the premium 172SP panel, and have a small issue with the S-tec 55 autopilot on xplane.

In order to both be in heading mode, and arm the nav for an intercept, in the real aircraft you press on both the HDG and NAV buttons simultaneously. Because this is not possible with a mouse pointer, Xplane 11 has you press a "hidden" button between the HDG & NAV buttons on the autopilot to simulate the dual key press.

I tried to use the autopilot in AirManager today, the premium S-Tec 55 included with the 172 premium panel, but it appears there is no way to simulate pressing both buttons at same time, and the instrument does not include any "hidden" button to simulate the dual key press like xplane 11 includes in the 3d panel.

Am I missing something? Or is there going to be an update to fix this oversight?

Thanks,

Rich Moore

Any update?

Not yet, but I'm gonna work on it today.

There's a new version online. I have to upload a new panel design because the new version has the original Stec55 size. I also noticed some errors in the layout which I'm going to correct.

Thank you so much. I am glad it was an easy fix (at least adding the function.)
