Hello. Recently I have not been able to get Vpilot to squawk Mode C. It will do it if I press IDENT but it won't just turn on. I''ve tried restarting my PC and reinstalling Vpilot but it still doesn't work. I have it set to set mode C after departure. I press it and it goes blue then immediatly goes off again. In the sim the transponder is turned on.

Try it in a default aircraft like the C172. That'll tell us if it's a problem with the add-on aircraft taking over the transponder.

Just tried the trike and it still doesn't go mode C. It lights up but never actually stays on.

My best guess is that you have some add-on that is messing with the transponder values in SimConnect.

As I said it's just my best guess. If that guess is correct, then you'd have to identify which add-on it is that's interfering with the transponder.
