PC6 - Autopilot won't disengage

[tom-preston]

Hi,

I’ve searched everywhere for an answer but unfortunately no luck. I purchased your pc-6, which I used to have on prepar3d and a few of your other aircraft and it was fantastic. I’m having a slight issue with the autopilot though. About 80% of the time when first loading up the moment I turn the avionics on and the autopilot is in HDG+ALT mode. It quite simply can't be turned off/disengaged. I’ve tried mapping alternate buttons, holding down the ap switch, cycling the power on and off… you can't take off in this situation. If you slew up and attempt to fly all you get is a suicidal left bank that cant be corrected. I read somewhere in someone else's post a similar banking issue with autopilot.

Hello Dear Support Team

5) The Autopilot is - imho - currently completely broken. If I create a flightplan and let the plane follow the GPS (NAV-Mode), following happens:
The plane would gradually go sideways... I have to "release" the AP - the plane then "snaps back" and it starts all over. If you speed up by 4x
you can literally see it happen. In rare cases this does NOT happen and the plane does kinda "autocorrect" itself to face the course head-on.

For me, if the plane loads up normally with autopilot off, I get zero issues, autopilot or otherwise including what is quoted above.

I’m sure it's something simple but I don’t know what that is. Any help would be much appreciated.

Regards,

Tom

This sounds like a controls conflict or interference from another addon. Please try it a few times with only the PC-6 in your community folder and double check your control assignments.
