HAP.CFG
How do you know that the path for the HAP.CFG is correct?
Using the lift off function, you get a hover, then transition out to 40 kts. At 40 kts the VS & IAS functions activate. However, if they set themselves to 0 Kts & 0 Feet per second the path is not correct and the HAP.CFG is not loaded.
PATH
The path to the HAP.CFG needs to be in the old DOS style.
