It's not so much a how to as it is a how to and an complete systems overview at the same time.  Literally goes over every button, switch, etc. is my understanding (I'm only about 40 minutes in)

Geez,  barley can take of with this plane ,I’m always fighting with the plane. Wants to go left, wants to go right..... Also the last 2 flights , when in cruise, auto pilot on , all off a sudden starts to turn sharp right and eventually just dives into the ground.

Use the Working Titles mod, follow the instructions, and you'll be fine

Mod conflict maybe?

Have you hit the SPACEBAR yet? Will gain a few inches and be a tall(er) astronaut 🙂

Likely but have same issue (coupled with A/P won't stay on when engaged). Interestingly the only other mods installed are scenery/airports.

I don't fly this jet a whole lot...but do you guys think it's capable on vatsim or Pilot Edge?  Or is that still not really possible with the avionics?  The Longitude, which I prefer because it looks cooler and is faster, is basically a screenshot aircraft lol... the navigation is worthless online.

Check your controller assignments...   have a look when you start the sim and see if the rudder pedals are twitching in the cockpit.   If so, you have a controller conflict.   It could also be that if you are using twist for the rudder on a joystick, the contacts have got dirty..  just twist the joystick left/right a number of times to clean it...   but my guess would be controller conflict.

I had the same, and cleaning the conflicts and making sure the contacts were clean stopped all the faffing around in the air and the A/P disconnecting.

You will see.. if you look that there are assignments on the keyboard for rudder..  things like auto-center, etc etc.. remove them ALL if you are using a rudder controller 🙂

Another indication that you have a conflict or dirty contacts, is suddenly veering left or right when taxiing before flight.

Have an older CH yoke and pedals, and I am sure it needs to be cleaned (or more). Do not get any twitching, however the right pedal looks depressed a bit when viewing down. At slow speed rudder works ok, but gets totally wild after about 20kts.  Unfortunately the new Honeycomb replacement arrived DOA 😞
