Input utility?
Author: Valoran      809 Posts  Status: Living Legend    Date    10-28-08 04:07

Hey guys. Is there a freeware input utility out there that allows one to input directly from the keyboard to the radio stack, autopilot, etc... like
we can from fspax? Or barring that, is there a way to do it in FSX/FS9 that I don't know about?

What I mean is: ATC tells me to turn to heading XX, I punch into my PC's keyboard H+XX and the autopilot turns me that way.

I'm going to go look on AVSIM but I don't remember anything like that available. I keep getting yelled at by RC4 for not turning quickly
enough since I have to pan down or call up the panel, adjust the knob manually (like in RL, I know, shut up), and then turn off/on the
correct autopilot switch. It's been so long since I had to do that I get out of sorts. Hurry up Dan, I'm forgetting how to fly right. ;)

CTRL+H

Turns on and Off heading, then do the turn yourself, and when its on the desired heading press CTRL+H again, and the plane will
automatically turn to the heading you selected....

Not the best way but thats one way

Any other ideas guys? Without real gauges I can touch with my hands, it's pretty fakey even in the virtual cockpit.
