December 1, 200916 yr Hi :Every time I engage the autopilot , the throttle and yoke go "crazy" , moving up and down . Is this normal? Or is this a trim problem?Thanks, Kaue Freire. :(Maybe you could try extending the null zone of your joystick or yoke via the flight simulator setup? Not sure of the exact answer. Have seen it happening on some youtube videos of the md-11. Hope someone will have a definite answer for you soon.Regards,Pete Smith, UK
