Thank you for sharing that with us, I'm sure it will be of immense help to HiTech in tracking down this possible bug.
If there is the slightest amount of joystick input as you spawn on the runway, auto-take off will become disabled. Take hands off joystick and feet of pedals as you hit the button to spawn and auto-take off will not disable itself. That's what I've found out through testing.
Fixed the issue for the next version it will start with the 10% auto pilot shutoff, I.E. as if you started it manually.HiTech
Thanks.One thing I've noticed now though is I can't hit one of my autopilot modes to turn the A/P off of auto takeoff on the ground unless the engine is running. Before when I spawned I could disable the autopilot by hitting the command for level and it would turn off. Now it tries to turn off but immediately turns back on.
Just move your stick and it will turn off and not come back on unless you have Auto engage auto pilot enabled.HiTech
