Hi!
I've read on the forum that other folks have experienced issues with the autopilots alt sel mode, saying that it sometimes works and some don't. The same thing goes for me.
I do the following before use:
- select altitude
- press alt sel and vs
- adjust vs climb rate
I then activate the autopilot. The times it doesn't work the vs button goes off about 300 ft before selected altitude and the alt sel button changes from arm to cap. But trim doesn't move, causing the aircraft to overshoot target altitude. I trim it myslf and press alt hold to level out. I haven't found out what I do different when it work, but maybe I do something wrong... If so, please tell how it should be.
But, and here is the next issue: The aircraft can't keep the altitude even when pressing alt hold. It goes up and down by 500-1000ft. Looks like the trim is struggling to balance the plane.
I hope you Flysimware guys can check out if this is bugs to sort out!
Regards
Jan Ove
