Accessors

isActive

Get Signature

get isActive(): boolean

Defined in: src/sdk/autopilot/calculators/GenericFlcComputer.ts:52

Gets if this computer is active

Returns

boolean

if this computer is active.

---

isClimbMode

Get Signature

get isClimbMode(): boolean

Defined in: src/sdk/autopilot/calculators/GenericFlcComputer.ts:68
