I was asked to upload my RPN script for the MS FS2020 M20 Mooney. Here you are:
As the Flightsim developer forgot a few keybindings in the settings and it takes much more time I expected to add them, I was in the need for making my own scripts. I use FS2020 only in VR and it is a pain in the a.....rotating the duals encoders with that jumping mouse pointer. Of course this sucks in 2d, too.
You need further software for bringing these scripts to FS2020. I recommend Lorbys Axis and Ohs. Thanks to Oliver from AAO for support and your super fast service.
In the scripts you´ll find the Sim variables for all buttons and knobs of the KAS-297 autopilot altitude panel. They work as the real ones, nothing more, nothing less.
- Dual Encoder with Pusbutton for changing Altitude and Vertical Speed in thousands(larger, outer knob) or hundreds (inner knob) of feet. Push changes from ALT to VS input.
- ARM and ENG button
How to use:
Import the script to AAO (you can test AAO with the demo version),bind your buttons and encoders to these scripts, the names of the buttons are easy to find. The folder/group is named Mooney.
As the developers of FS2020 even hadn´t the time for fixing these annoying 10 degress jumps, I included the scripts for binding the Heading and VOR1 bugs. You can turn the bugs left and right in 1 degree steps and of course the autopilot follows your heading as it normally works.
AAO has all variables for the Garmin 530 and they work great, so I didn´t add the buttons and rotaries for the Garmin. NAV/COM can be bind within FS2020 settings.
I will upload some other scripts, next time for the CJ4 (WT) menu buttons and encoders.

I've just tested and these scripts work with the Carenado/Microsoft Bonanza V35 as well!

Thank you for creating this script! I'd actually stopped using the aircraft as I find adjusting the alt / vs so fiddly with the mouse, Great work!

Thanks for these. They helped me a lot finish setting up the Mooney with my new xtouch mini. Note that I found your eng-button script didn't work for me. This code did work "0·(>K:AP_PANEL_VS_HOLD)".

Indeed there are several changes since AAU1. ENG button is now the common VS toggle. Thanks for the hint, I did an update.

Thank you for this!! I'd spent hours trying to get the references for the Bendix before I found your addon!

I have asked Carenado devs for adding MSFS default key assignment to this altitude control equipment, and they answered me that it was good suggestion. I hope they make some proper fix to this in the SU9 or someday. AAO is a great app but I don't want to buy it just for this. It is pretty normal to adjust this equipment using keyboard or gamepad button isn't it? But currently, it is not. We have to struggle to do this job using mouse in flight. VERY annoying.
