  Welcome to the community, @stereospell.
  
  Indeed, that's the correct setting to change through script.  What you'll want to do is make use of the OnGrabMoveable custom event.  Custom events are a way of hooking custom code up to common AC events - in this case, when a moveable object is grabbed.  More on custom events can be found in this tutorial as well as the Manual.
  
  This ought to do it.  Paste the following in a C# script named MoveableEventTest, and attach it to a GameObject in your scene:
  
  using UnityEngine;
  using System.Collections;
  using AC;
  
  public class MoveableEventTest : MonoBehaviour
  {
     
      private void OnEnable ()
      {
          EventManager.OnGrabMoveable += GrabMoveable;
      }
     
      private void OnDisable ()
      {
          EventManager.OnGrabMoveable -= GrabMoveable;
      }
     
      private void GrabMoveable (DragBase dragBase)
      {
          Debug.Log ("Grabbed: " + dragBase.name);
          if (dragBase is PickUp)
          {
              AC.KickStarter.settingsManager.disableFreeAimWhenDragging = false;
          }
          else
          {
              AC.KickStarter.settingsManager.disableFreeAimWhenDragging = true;
          }
      }
     
  }

  Thanks Chris! That did the trick.
  
  One small correction in case anyone else wants to use this.
  I was getting a namespace not found in line : "if (dragBase is PickUp)"
  I changed "PickUp" to "Moveable_PickUp" and it works just fine.
  
  I was thinking of a way more complex way of doing this so your help is very much appreciated. I guess it's time for me to study custom events a bit more.
  
  Once again thanks for your time and for making such a great tool.

  Right you are - sorry for the typo.
