Fantastic product btw, I love being able to use the GTN 750 externally on my small vertical touch-screen monitor, works AWESOME!
The Microsoft Pilatus PC-6 steam gauge version is fantastic and I really enjoy flying it, the only problem is that even though MS/Asobo stuck GPS units in the cockpit it has no autopilot. At first figured I would simply edit the aircraft's systems.cfg file as most of the aircraft already have an autopilot section near the bottom and you simply have to change autopilot_available =0 to autopilot_available =1.
It doesn't work. :/
Could this be due to the fact that the Microsoft_Pilatus_PC6_Gauge_Wheels and Microsoft_Pilatus_PC6_Gauge_Skis version lack an autopilot gauge in the virtual cockpit? Or could be something as simple as a msfs sim variable edit? I do know that unfortunately FS2020 no longer supports 2D popup gauges so it's not as easy as adding one to the panel.cfg like in the old days. I use the Garmin/Saitek multi-panel for autopilot and COM2/NAV2 control so I don't need a gauge to interact with to use the AP commands... I'm stumped at this point and any input would be greatly appreciated.
Here's the location of the aircraft's on my system for example:
