Using latest MSFS and vPilot 3.0.6  I can't switch to Mode-C

I'm flying the Aerosoft CRJ-1000

Are you using the Mode C button on the vPilot window, or the transponder mode switch in the aircraft?

The aircraft is probably overriding it ... try using the transponder mode switch in the aircraft.

It is, which it didn't do with the previous version of MSFS and vPilot 2.x

Something may have changed in the MSFS update. Nothing changed in vPilot 3.x with respect to transponder mode handling.

Can you say what you did to fix the issue? Others may want to know as well.

I think he just used the transponder mode setting in the plane instead of the button on the vPilot window.

Ross is correct. I use the CRJ's systems to switch to mode-C.

At office laptop right now, so no flightsim installed, I'll post pictures later tonight how to change the transponder code and the modes

Yes, it was the switch in the cockpit that engaged the Mode C, the aircraft FBW 320Neo override the vPilot command in the panel. It works nice now, thanks.
