Fixed:
The cause of the issue was an old software version of the TDS GTN, which auto launched with the sim and was causing issues with the FD. They pushed an update for this late last year, but I had forgotten to update.

Brief description of the issue:
Doing a turn-around causes autopilot issues. Whenever I start a second flight without ending and restarting the flight, the following issues occur:
- A/T does not respond normally to FLC climb/descend. It generally hovers somewhere around 80% for climbs and just under half thrust for descends. This is true for both VNAV on and off.
- VS becomes unadjustable, you can toggle it but it will only lock onto the current value, you cannot change it.
- HDG works normally, but button does not light up when HDG mode is active

Detailed steps to reproduce the issue encountered:
Example flight to recreate: LFKF - EDDM. Spawn engines on or off your discretion. Full simbrief import, or optionally for zero addons just enter BTA DOBIM for the test. Perf calcs optional. TOGA and A/T Hold to depart, and manual flight or with autopilot do a quick stop and go at LFKS (stop on the runway, toggle parking brake, depart, resume flight). No need to change FMS, just manually navigate and land for testing purposes. As soon as you’re airborne the second time, the issues above will occur and remain.
