Great find!  For others... the relevant portion is 18:00 minutes into the video.
I watch Stevo often.

Aside from people making random changes to the config files for these airplanes, I honestly wonder how many of these issues are caused by people simply turning knobs and never having the airplane in a decent state of trim to begin with. Autopilots are like GPS in cars: they're useful if you know how to use them and understand their limitations. But they will not fly the airplane perfectly for you if you don't have a reasonably stable aircraft when you flip them on. I keep meaning to try the 930 and see if I encounter these problems.

My suggestion for people having these types of issues: turn the autopilot OFF and see what the airplane is doing! If you turn the autopilot off and it immediately makes a huge attitude/airspeed change, you need to start looking elsewhere for the problem, e.g. the mirror.

It's not a secret that MSFS' flight models and the APs arent the best. I'm far away from "making random changes" therefore i am here in the forum trying to gain information before i edit anything.

But thanks for your generous advice!

Honestly, get the airplane to where it's doing whatever it is you don't want it to do - in this case bobbing up and down on the ILS - and then turn off the autopilot. You might be surprised what's going on with the plane.

That's where I'd start if I were having this issue.

No bobbin up and down for me

Yeah great show off but this does not contribute anything to help the OP.

Good point -- the autopilot is not a trimming tool!  And getting an a/c in trim in the sim can be a little more difficult than in a real plane since in the RW you feel the pressure decrease on the yoke as you get the a/c in trim.

Actually it does, it shows that the plane is working just fine. Seems like any little thing out of the ordinary and Asobo is to blame even though it might be user error

I have the same issue everytime i am @FLC and the wind changes in direction/speed. Its a constant wobbling and bobbling.The TBM seems very unstable at the moment.

I just completed a flight using flc, and it was rock solid. If you fly the ils approach correctly, the plane will glide down the glide slope like a stripper on a greasy pole. Lots of tutorials on youtube, maybe go back to the C152 and forget about the autopilot for a while.

Go back? I skipped the C152 directly...

Strange because the TBM was working flawlessly until the last patch. So i assume the problem is not the operator here.

There’s a massive and varied history of autopilot oscillations on a variety of aircraft in the sim. 
 

To suggest it’s not Asobo is complete stupidity. It was on the known fault list for gods sake, and there’s dozens of threads reporting exactly the same all over the forums.

No way to assess unless you provide detail on how you have configured at the time.  Power, airspeed, flaps, gear.  And when and how deployed for each.

Not true. An autopilot should never oscillate in pitch for more than a few seconds. Power/airspeed/config all irrelevant.

OK it could have been there from all the noobs who has no idea what they are doing up voted it or it it could be trolls. You can clearly see in my video that there was no bobbin up and down on the app. I've seen one guy on FB complain about the airbus not following the GPS and turns out the plane wasn't even in managed mode.

You're right, I've done tons of ILS app in the tbm, sr22, king air and c172 and never had a bobbin up and down problem on the ils or glide slope.

If you say so.... 😄
