Sure,
In the sim, on the opening screen, from the top heading, select “Options”
In that screen you will see, in the middle, “Assistance”.
In there you will see, on the left, “Piloting”
In that section, ensure everything is “Off” This will make the upper heading read “Hard” which is also known in simming as “true to life”.
Having said that, you can leave the bottom setting, “Delegate ATC to AI” in the “on” position if you like. It is convenient and does not affect the issue. You will then get “Custom” as the top heading. That is OK.
Now, once you start up the sim, and are in a plane, call up the in-sim menu by clicking on the “wing” icon.
On the right hand side of the yoke icon is the AI Icon. In there, at the bottom, is “Control Aircraft” it must be off. (switch towards the left) That is the AI Co-pilot, which as yet isn’t fully developed.
PS: Above that, you will see “Manage Radio Comms”, this is another way to “Delegate ATC to AI” which we discussed above
