Hi!

I have an interesting problem…whenever Simlink is running and connected to FS2020, vpilot doesn’t find the flightsim, but anytime I turn off Simlink, vpilot recognises fs immediately.

Also the opposite…if vpilot running and connected with the sim, then Simlink says it cannot detect Flightsim, until I close vpilot.

Did anybody have/had similar problems?
