The Jumprope

There is some key that turns on a jumprope that shows your plane's flight path in the sky.

 

I'd love to map that function to no key at all, because it's a useless function to me, and I'm always accidentally turning it on. Does anyone know,

 

(1) What that key is, by default, and

(2) What is the name of that function is settings/joystick options/keys?

Hey Wayne,

 

The key(In V8 anyhow) is: "O"

 

No idea about the other one.

Hi Alex! Good to see you. Thanks for the key. At least I can turn it off now. What an incredible destroyer of illusion it is to make a turn and find my plane has been pooping a giant jumprope...

 

Now to find the function so I can permanently unmap it.

And you X-Plane guys wonder why us MSFS users won't switch over.

 

Sorry, couldn't resist.

It's a safety feature! Two words should explain what it's for: Guam & SXC
