AP Help

Sorry I'm such a novice with this stuff, but I'd like to configure the autopilot of the FSX M-18A to just level the wings when I press Z. No turn to heading or altitude hold. Here's the current AP which doesn't work Thanks!

[autopilot]
autopilot_available=1
use_no_default_bank =1
use_no_default_pitch =1
flight_director_available=0
default_vertical_speed=1000.00000
autothrottle_available=0
autothrottle_arming_required =0
autothrottle_takeoff_ga =1.00000
autothrottle_max_rpm =90.00000
pitch_takeoff_ga=8.00000
default_pitch_mode =0
default_bank_mode =0
max_pitch =10.00000
max_pitch_acceleration =1.00000
max_pitch_velocity_lo_alt =2.00000
max_pitch_velocity_hi_alt =1.50000
max_pitch_velocity_lo_alt_breakpoint =20000.00000
max_pitch_velocity_hi_alt_breakpoint =28000.00000
max_bank=25.00000
max_bank_acceleration =1.80000
max_bank_velocity =3.00000
max_throttle_rate =0.10000
nav_proportional_control =9.00000
nav_integrator_control =0.25000
nav_derivative_control =0.00000
nav_integrator_boundary =2.50000
nav_derivative_boundary =0.00000
gs_proportional_control =9.52000
gs_integrator_control =0.26000
gs_derivative_control =0.00000
gs_integrator_boundary =0.70000
gs_derivative_boundary =0.00000
yaw_damper_gain =0.00000

These entries are redundant:


use_no_default_bank =1
use_no_default_pitch =1

default_pitch_mode =0
default_bank_mode =0


The first two are from FS2002 and shouldn't even be there at all.

Change the default_bank_mode to 1:

default_pitch_mode =0
default_bank_mode =1

This will allow the "wing leveler" to be active whenever the AP is engaged.

Thanks a million!  :)
