Do pilot skills stay active if you get off the helm?
DJ Tipz N Trix:
Say for example I'm on a Junker and my balloon is out. I use Drogue Chute to slow my fall. If I get off the helm to repair the balloon and get back on, drogue chute is already selected. Does this mean Drogue Chute is active when I am repairing the balloon?
Tanya Phenole:
Pilot tool effect disappears on dismount.
Dementio:
Pilot tools deactivate the second you get off the helm. Soem pilots tools stay active after deactivation for a bit (e.g.: Hydrogen stays active for 3 seconds).
When you mount the helm and the tool is selected you are activating it again.
Why it remembers that you have that tool activated is beyond my understanding for it could prove rather unconvinient if you activate, say chute vent again...

Isn't it supposed to be deactivated immediately? You sure it is not staying because of ping delay?

All pilot tools which stay active after deactivation for another few seconds do so as well if the helm is left. Leaving the helm has got the same effect on the steering tools as selecting the neutral tool-slot.
