no sir,
I using the Milviz 530/430. when I attempt to engage the autopilot, I can push the buttons but nothing happens. The only thing that seems to work is setting the BARO and ALT on that panel. :o

I have 170829 build installed.

Have you pushed the "baro" button first? If so, have you waited until the AP stabilizes and then have you pushed and held the "AP" button down for the required 3/4 second? This AP will not turn on by simply pushing the "AP" button, you must hold the power button down for approx. 3/4 second before the AP will come on.
