Hi guys,

Is there a shortcut key to turn on/off the mouse yoke? Because whenever I'm flying my plane, and I want to set autopilot, my stick turns when I move the mouse, which puts the plane at an angle and at a descent or ascent. And whenever I pause the game and turn the yoke off, and then I un-pause, the plane goes straight up. It's getting me VERRY angry, because I don't really like to use shortcuts to turn on autopilot and stuff.

Simplest way is to buy a joystick. I'm guessing you don't like taking shortcuts for the AP because its not realistic, yet your flying with your mouse  ;)

Lol, you do have a point there
But flying with a mouse is pretty simple for me. But does a shortcut for the mouse yoke exist?

Not sure if you already have this, but mine is set to toggle it with Ctrl+y. I think that's the default. Hope this helps.

Get a joystick.

I bet it'll take you 5 minutes of joystick usage to wonder why you went so long without one.  BTW, get one with a hat switch and a throttle.  Trust me on this.

Alright, you guys have convinced me to but a joystic  :D I'll try the one cunning mentioned. Thanks guys

Lol i'm ambidextrous (both-handed) so I guess either one will work. But I love Logitech stuff, I have a set of their speakers

Well then...I've been using the LOGITECH EXTREME 3D PRO joystick for over 2 years for various sims with no problems...12 buttons + throttle and point of hat...not very expensive either. It is "right handed", but sounds like that shouldn't be an issue for you.

right click anywhere and then at the very bottom of the menu that comes up you should see mouse yoke.. if there's a checkmark by it then click it and you should be good to go. I had this problem before
