The latest YF-23 pending update (note name change from 'yf23') has an auto take-off function in the AP that does pretty much that just by selecting 'TO' mode. It does wallow a bit, at first though. The take-off sequence finishes by leaving the a/c in a mach-hold climb. trouble is that the last time I tried it, it was at > 100,000ft and still climbing at > 50ft/s - whoops:( You shouldn't need to set anything else, although you can set a series of waypoints as long as you hit ctrl-h a couple of times to disable true-heading-mode beforehitting 'TO'. It'll switch to the waypoints, if set, after it's finished it's initial climb-out.
