December 27, 200817 yr I just got the Saitek throttle quadrant and now have open levers on my CH Yoke.I programmed Z axis for elevator trim and it works.Problem is my autopilot altitude and vertical speed don't work properly now.They don't seem to hold.Disable the z axis trim and they work fine.Any thoughts?Thanks,Ron Bring back Chief Illiniwek!University of Illinois.

I have that axis set to 3 'bands'with the center band = null. Paul
