Hello!I have a simple question for you guys. (could not find a 100% reassurring answer on the forum..)I've loaded the APM HIL onto my APM, it flies great in xplane, but...Can I fly my rc plane with that software?? Or is it only for simulated testing, meaning I should reload the standard software("non" hil) an set it up again?Thank you for your help!

You should load the standard software (non HIL) on your plane to fly it in real life. The HIL software bypasses all of APM's sensors. Yes, do go through the setup process again for safety.
Hardware In Loop is for use with a simulator like XPlane. When you have everything working as you wish in XPlane then you disabled HIL and put the APM in your plane confident that it works. All you have to do is setup the planes control surfaces and charge the battery.
