Yeah...It appears as if autopilot is not getting the altitude info from [EMAIL PROTECTED] The autopilot altitude value stays at it's default 5k and doesn't budge. The only way to set this alt is manually through the ap gui. Any quick fixes would be appreciated... Does the telnet or GPS system work as well? I see the --garmin=params option... I found the garmin protocol, but it appears as if the protocol needs to be in xml format, is this correct?

The plane eventually has it's own mind with regard to what altitude it wants to fly. I also tried the flightplan, but have the same isue. The altitude in the gui autopilot works very stable. So... is there a way to implement a series of waypoints at different altitudes? My next attack was going to cut into the route manger code in try to implement a file read to the autopilot data points, any input would be appreciated... Thanks for your help...

Downside of using properties for these things rather than C++ variables if you change one side and not the other, the compiler won't catch it for you, but the upside is a tremendous amount of increased flexibility and power so we live with it ...
