Or check your controls profile for the Autopilot Automation feature... This will allow you to make it do what you want. I've set mine so that when I skip from cockpit to gunner station, the autopilot doesn't kick in for flight and I'm still watching the AI move the gun around. I have to click my mouse wheel to enable or disable autopilot for flight control of gunner control to enable/disable my input.
