Title: B24 Aouto takeoff/Autoclimb bug
Post by: Mugzeee on November 02, 2004, 08:55:31 AM
The thing takes forever to stablize its constant climb.
It bobs up and down for a long time trying to find the proper aoa and to acheive proper climb angle/speed. The stall buzzer never stops it seems. Maybe auto climb speed too low by default?

much like the b26 for me also.

the way i get around this is to manualy set a climb with shift x thats good, then once its stabilized at a the climb speed (or close to it) i hit auto climb.

i also set high climb speed too, 160 seems to be good, until about 15k then i slowly have to set it lower and lower to gain alt.

OK further study. Take off sea level base...in Auto Climb....no problems. Hit Auto level....build speed to 200+ hit Auto Climb...and presto the never ending yoyo.
This problem hit the 262 in AH2 early stages. I think the symptoms are the same. Maybe the repair is too? :)

That effect is called porpoising (ya know, like Flipper?). I experienced the same thing. Try taking off fully loaded and see how bad it gets.:confused:

Have noticed that IF you take off in auto takeoff and let it automatically turn off everything is fine. But when you go level for a period then hit autoclimb the yoyo is back. All alts i have been at so far.
