Auto pilot/AI pilot mod for single player aircraft? Also improved UAV control?
I play single player.
I'm searching for improved auto pilot mod for aircraft, with adequate loitering/circling/cruising control. I have tried All-in-One Single Player project, found the 'super pilot' mode satisfied, but I got some compatibility problem with this mod(messed menu, some game can't be saved properly). So I'm here asking for your wisdom.
Also in my game, the vanilla UAV autonomous control is just a mess, AR-2 can't even flight straight while all can't maintain altitude (every one just want to reach outer space after awhile), am I doing something wrong? Or just another improved AI mod needed?
Thanks.

ps-
Thanks for all your replies.
I think I need to make my question about piloting more specific-
I'm searching a mod that can allow me control aircraft while I'm directly controlling the weapon system. The vanilla 'take control' is not an option since you can't access weapons while controlling the aircraft, and when you 'release control' the AI pilot just messes everything. Any more advice? Thanks.

You say '' (every one just want to reach outer space after awhile),''
Open uav control and set way points whit altitude and behavior so he knows to fly around for you.

That's what I did. I did set alt and behavior, but all UAVs just flying higher and higher after several minutes except AR-2.

sst more waypoints and the last is cycle (set it not to far from first waypoint it will connect to the first one).
Try it.

Been there done that. They just went higher and higher, so if you don't encounter this kind of problem then there's maybe some mod conflicting..

Try it in your editor whit no mods and see if it's work OK on there.

If I place that way the waypoints, they all fly on waypoints and altitude whit no problems.

you mean "how I can control that Blackfish while shooting from his big guns"? well, there was one mod on AC-130 which allowed to setup it's center of the circle and move it, but I dunno if it even works anymore. as for Blackfish, no, I do not know any such mods.

Try Drongo's air operations. I've been a gunner with the helo in a loiter pattern; it should work for the Blackfish too.
