AP_MAX_BANK_INC KEY_AP_MAX_BANK_INC

N/A

Increment the AP max bank angle index.

Note that if there is only one index possible then using this event will do nothing. However if there are 2 or more available indices, this event will increase the index by 1, and when the number passes the maximum available indices - 1, it will loop back around again to index 0. For example, if you have 3 indices, the maximum index is 2, and incrementing past that will go to index 0.

NOTE: for further information on indices, please see the AP_MAX_BANK_SET event.
AP_MAX_BANK_DEC KEY_AP_MAX_BANK_DEC

N/A

Decrement the AP max bank angle index.

Note that if there is only one index possible then using this event will do nothing. However if there are 2 or more available indices, this event will decrease the index by 1, and when the number passes 0, it will loop back around again to the max index - 1 position. For example, if there are 4 indices, and you decrement from 0, the new index will be 3.

NOTE: for further information on indices, please see the AP_MAX_BANK_SET event.
AP_MAX_BANK_SET KEY_AP_MAX_BANK_SET

[0]: the index to use for max bank angle.

Sets the autopilot max bank angle index to the parameter [0] value, where the value is clamped between 0 and the number of available indices. The indices correspond to the number of values set for the max_bank table, plus index 0 which corresponds to the auto banking system. When auto_max_bank is enabled, setting the index to 0 will turn on the AP auto banking.

To give an example, if the max_bank table has 2 values and auto_max_bank is enabled, then the indices for this event would be:

  • 0: use auto banking
  • 1: use the first value in the max_bank table
  • 2: use the second value in the max_bank table.

If auto banking is not enabled, then setting this to 0 will have no effect.

[0]: Value between 0 and 16384

[1]: Index

Set the heading hold reference bug. This is the same as the HEADING_BUG_SET event only it permits a much greater degree of precision by permitting the input of a larger integer value that is then transformed by the simulation into a floating point heading. The way this works is that the integer value you supply is multiplied by (360/16384) to give the correct higher precision value, for example if you supply the value 477, you're heading would be calculated like this:

input value: 477
