Try spawning on runway, then use whatever keybind is bound to TOGGLE AUTOPILOT MASTER? For me its Z on my keyboard and another key on the Win Cntrl URSA Minor joystick and both work. If that doesn't work, for testing purposes try creating a new controller General Controls and Airplane Controls profile that is blank with only TOGGLE AUTOPILOT MASTER bound. This will help rule out some keybind conflict. 2026-05-01 13-32-52.mp4

The AP1 can be toggled between CMD and OFF using the "TOGGLE AUTOPILOT MASTER" keybind. The Autopilot disconnect (on yoke) can be used via the "AUTOPILOT OFF" keybind. The only one not mapped is AUTOPILOT ON as forcing it on via key event was causing other logic issues with CWS in certain cases. As for the 000 EPR issue, as mentioned above team is investigating the correct behaviour and working on it for a future update. Thanks!

Try this recommended procedure If starting fuel quantity is less than 63,000 lbs: Feed tank-to-engine throughout flight. If starting fuel quantity is between 63,000 lbs and 116,000 lbs: Crossfeed all engines from tank 2 until fuel levels in all tanks are equal. Leave one tank pump operating in tank 1 and tank 3 while crossfeeding from tank 2. Monitor tank quantities to ensure that lateral balance remains within limits. Feed tank-to-engine for remainder of flight, especially when fuel remaining fuel quantity is less than 63,000 lbs. If starting fuel quantity is 116,000 lbs or greater: Crossfeed all engines from tanks 1 and 3 until total fuel remaining is 116,000 lbs. Crossfeed from tank 2 until tanks 1, 2, and 3 are equal. Leave one tank pump operating in tank 1 and tank 3 while crossfeeding from tank 2. Monitor tank quantities to ensure that lateral balance remains within limits. Feed tank-to-engine for remainder of flight, especially when fuel remaining fuel quantity is less than 63,000 lbs.

Thannk suggestion is noted but just for reference you can "right click" or "middle click" on the dial to auto-set current GW value.

There is no default profile, though we do have an "official" one available in the FAQ section: https://forum.inibuilds.com/forum/744-faqs/ You just delete any 3rd party profile you installed and replace it with this one. Restart COUATL after if sim was running at the time.

Repaints (those obtained via iniManager) should not affect this as there are no files included that would affect systems logic. We can't say the same for all community-made liveries however. Changes have been made in v1.0.3, so please let us know if this is still the case now?

Thanks, with 1.0.3 we have made changes to the AP controller, but only added this to "VNAV" for now. We are working to implement the same logic into IAS/MACH modes as well for future update. If you have any additional feedback meanwhile, specifically to how AP behaves with TM/VNAV , please let us know. Yes, see the post attached below. We're investigating the following:

I have split your topic as its a separate issue to the one you had replied to. Thanks we want to investigate this further. Was your AFCS ALT window indicating the mode as "ALT CAP" still when you changed the target? Or was this after it had already changed to ALT? How were you changing the altitude target? click and drag or mouse wheel? Thanks!

While it is correct that TM mode requires FD+AP, we'll have another look at what it should do when conditions are not met (i.e. just disengage TM instead of commanding EPR 000/IDLE thrust). The other thing to note is that both PMS are independent, so need their data entered separately. PMS1 data is only used by AP1 channel.

Hi There is a potential fix in v1.0.4 coming that may address the issue of the spoilers not appearing visually post landing. Please verify and let us know after. Thanks!
-
Hmm. Can't say I'm seeing this on my end. Could you please record a video starting from C&D till after pushback when you notice the offset? This will allow us to observe and possibly recreate the issue better. You can upload the video to youtube or Gdrive and share the link here. Just ensure its public / "anyone with link" can access. Thanks

We believe this may be related to an issue some users encountered, where the electrical generator would briefly reset during flight. This momentary interruption appeared to have a knock-on effect on avionics (GPS/INS/PMS) and other electrical systems. A workaround for this electrical issue has been implemented in version 1.0.4. Please let us know if you still experience it after that update. Can you please make all your links public? Currently there is no permission to access. Hmm, can't repro this. It is correctly illuminating with AVAIL only when GPU is connected via the PFB. Tested both with/without GSX (just to see if it was perhaps forcing it avail).

HI Did you import the waypoints from your OFP/Simbrief at any point? Or were they all always only manually entered? If auto-import was used, there is logic that wipes the INS in order to import the next batch of waypoints, but this shouldn't trigger from fully manual entry normally. Could you please provide some screenshots showing your active modes + AFCS + configuration (flaps/gear) at the time? The team is working to fine-tune autopilot ALT HOLD behaviour particularly during configuration changes (Flaps or Gear) but if you can provide specific examples we can ensure those are specifically checked too. Again, it would be more helpful if you can provide specific examples of scenarios where it didn't work as you expected? This would include steps taken before intercept, and particularly data such as heading, speeds, altitude, weights etc. Specifically with regards to ILS, you should not intercept at angles greater than 45 degree, preferably try less than 30 degrees to avoid massive overshoots or it failing to follow at all. Thanks!
