Flight Panels has released its latest Stream Deck profile, the A339X Autopilot Panel, designed specifically for the Headwind A330-900 Neo in Microsoft Flight Simulator. This new release allows you to control essential autopilot and aircraft systems using the Elgato Stream Deck Plus, integrating touchscreen and rotary dial inputs for a more immersive flight experience. The A339X Autopilot Panel provides intuitive management of flight control systems. The first flight control panel (FCP) features dedicated buttons for key autopilot functions, including Flight Director, Auto Pilot 1 and 2, Auto Throttle, and Approach Mode. The rotary dials and LCD touchscreen allow real-time adjustments to speed, heading, altitude, and vertical speed, with options to toggle between selected and managed modes at the press of a button or tap of the screen.
The second flight control panel (FCP) extends the functionality further, introducing controls for SPD/MACH and HDG/V/S selection. It also enables direct tuning of communication frequencies for COM1 and COM2, using rotary dials for standby frequency adjustments and a simple tap or press to swap active frequencies.
