Hi Syd, I just updated my fgdata and I noticed that the change you mentioned (in your message below) is not yet in de git repos. Should it not be in?
Apart from that little remark, I can still not get the Aerostar700 AP to hold altitude. I have set the altitude on the dashbaord, armed it, activitated alt-hold with a altitude difference (between actual and desired) of less that 1000 ft (far less in fact, I switched to alt-hold on the desired altitude), but the plane keeps climbing anyway. The only way to keep a more or less stable altitude is by selecting pitch-hold and setting the pitch to a value close to 0.3. m Op 07-07-10 04:48, syd adams schreef: > I can't update my aircraft at the moment , but to fix the ALT hold > problem , change this starting at line 205 in aerostar-autopilot.xml ... > > <input> > <prop>instrumentation/altimeter/indicated-altitude-ft</prop> > </input> > > Must have been a left over experiment.
