VIOLENTJERKING WHEN ENGAGEING HEADING SWITCH

Featured Replies

Mine here to, even when going from LNAV, scrolling the hdg bug to the active heading at that moment, and then enganging heading mode... There's a short vibration over the planeThinking.gif

Yep confirmed here too. I also see some strange jerky pitch oscillations when in a climb.

I have to say I've experienced some jerkiness when engaging VOR LOC. No stutters either when this happened.
same here and also when engaging heading

Same problem here. PMDG: could you please add this to the issues pinned topic?

jerkiness when clicking on the HDG select button here as well. I don't know if this behavior is true to real life, i guess not.

yes, i get this too. And I noticed when the jerk occurs, when you view the flight surfaces EICAS pages, the ailerons suddenly snap to the extreme ends before tapering off, giving the sudden burst of acceleration going into the roll. Marcus Jian

Yep, me too. When flying in LNAV, and reverting too heading select, there's a sudden jerk toward the new heading instead of a smooth transition. Just a spot of autopilot tuning I reckon. Martin Wilby

yea me too doesnt bother me not that it matters to me any way

Hi, before I open a trouble ticket, just wanted to know if anyone else a seeing a little jerkiness from the autopilot? When it engages it may jerk to correct to the correct heading at first then flies OK; but, on the turns of the flight following the MCP - it jerks at first (to the direction of the turn) them smooths out as it get going through the turn.Also if the plane is on heading and a new heading was selected, it also jerks then smooths out. Thanks,Benny Miller
yea, I reported it too when the NGX came out. Any chance of them fixing this?

Same here. Realistic AP behavior enabled.

Same here. I have oscillations while in command of LNAV or HDG select. VNAV seems ok, although the yoke does oscillate back and forth. Thought it was the IRS but no, re calibrated joystick, deleted FSUIPC.ini, reinstalled FSUIPC, deleted FSX,cfg, re calibrated via FSX, even unpluged joystick. Still have the same problem. I still have yet to complete a flight since the oscillations get progressively excessive to a point where I receive a bank angle warning. PMDG support any ideas? Please? Justin Urban
