Autopilot in GA aircraft

[raknal 6]

After 2 years of no problems, today I am unable to have the autopilot follow heading or nav in flight.

have tried with different control settings no difference, so far applicable to the cessna 172, DA162 and Daher

No probblems flying the A32N FBW with the flightstick calibrated to FBW requirements

Any ideas welcome

Thanks

Is this the C172 w G1000?  If so, do you use the WT G1000NXi?

What exactly is not working... please elaborate, and maybe someone can help.

Flightstick calibration should not matter in this regard, I would think..

Using the G1000NXi but the same problem was with the G1000 changed to theNXi today after initial problems with the G1000

The problem is the aircraft starts leaning/tilting to the right on the runway just prior to liftoff. Then after manual flying to some altitude and normal speed when engaging the AP then heading or nav the aircraft ignortes the AP settings and violently turns  right  or left but usually right and without manual interference will crash.

I have calibrated the Logitech extreme 3D pro in win 1o and used the FS control setting I usually use when flying the GA planes, same results as above. 

when flying the FBW A32N today for testing no problems using the FBW ccontrol settings, I use default control settings for GA

Wonderig if the Flightstick which is about 10 years old could be an issue

If the controller is miscalibrated, the MSFS autopilot will do what you are describing. You can try increasing the deadzones a bit.
