Cessna 172 Skyhawk autopilot bug ?
After many hours of gameplay i've found an possable issue with the autopilot button in the cockpit next to the mfd display in de Skyhawk.
When on ground you can activate the autopilot with the button next the the mfd but if you takeoff and then will use that button the autopilot doesn't respond. When using the keybinding for the activation the autopilot turns on without an problem strange, i've the impression that the clickable buttons in the cockpits are not proper tested in beta.
I've found more strange stuff in other planes for an example the daimond. When turning off the fuel pumps the engines keep running as if nothing happened same as the throttle to cutoff pos, when switching off the elektricals the engines finally shot down.

Are there more people out there who want to use clickable buttons in the cockpit, and expiriencing the same issues ?
I'm currentley playing normal but want to go VR like in DCS world thats the main reason for using clickable buttons in the cockpit.
The main reason why not using VR is thats it runs even worse than the normal version.

I haven't used the clickable AP button in the C172, but I do use the HDG, NAV, and FLC buttons on a frequent basis. I also use many of the map buttons, adjust my altitude, HDG, and barometric pressure, etc. So many of those clickable buttons do in fact work.

I haven't tried the clickable AP button because I do in fact map that to toggle from my Joystick. I'll have to try that one when I fly today.

Checked while I was in the game today and my clickable AP button does work.
Evereyboy thanks for the info, my one still does not work i'm able to switch the autopilot off with the button inside the cockpit but switching it on after takeoff is still not working.
