Currently only Approach Headings -90 to 90 deg. available! When approx 5 Miles from the Airport on Base Leg spawn any stationary Target such as my ILS-Antenna on Runway Threshold via the spawn menu, select the target (Air/Ground) in target menu and and dial in the Runway Heading with VTOL (full down= -180, full up=180 deg, neutral=north). Set Throttle to 0 and press 7 to activate Approach Mode. Green Lights on Tail indicate top to bottom: nominal lateral, vertical, autothrust and Flare mode capture. Red light indicates negative system check (mostly unstable configuration close to runway) -> Manual go around advised. System is WIP.

    @Fighterpilot91 Thank you very much for your feedback! I´m currently in the process of reprogramming the whole lateral control to enable any heading and fine-tune the turns, which should also fix the bug you´ve experienced.

    !his is neat and i would really like to see further development,

    I do have a bug report though, I was at bandit, set the heading to land in the northerly direction, and I was south east of the airport(towards the uss tiny 2) then hit 7 and cut the throttle , bit it wen almost directly away from the airport. any ideas as to what happened there.

    And PID, that's high class...
