Autopilot disengages on first flight
« on: August 14, 2008, 06:29:06 PM »
For some reason, about every other login, My Auto Pilot just disengages itself on take off, In fact, as soon as I open the throttle it shuts off. I don't touch the controls or anything, It just switches off. i have a Saitek X52 if that's any help.
Cheers

Recal and check your dead band. Open up your controllers in AHII and look to see that your axis' are at a constant not jumping about...if there is fluctuations, open up that axis in the advanced and adjust dead band accordingly. Remember though this will also affect responsiveness of your controller.
