Autopilot issues

[Bert Pieke 7,585]

No, this airplane only has Altitude Hold - so you'll have to handle vertical

navigation by hand..

I am having lots of trouble using the trim wheel to adjust a climb, descent and level flight.  Using the AP and set altitude it flies straight and level.  But when I try to fly without altitude hold, the trim wheel just rolls up and down causing constant adjustment of the pitch control with the yoke.  I pull the yoke full either way and the wheel is just moving constantly.  Love this aircraft, but this problem is creating more work flying than I want to do.  The trim buttons on my yoke will move the wheel, but then the trim wheel starts its up and down adjustments.  Makes it tough to set up a climb or descent.  On an ILS approach with AP on, it will follow the descent to the runway, but turn off AP and then it goes bonkers.  Help please.  Thanks for any responses.  Got to thinking this topic should have been a new topic but don't know how to move to a new topic now.  Sorry
