I'm thinking that adding a second indicated-turn-rate property that is
filtered with a higher bandwidth would be a good solution.
I just tried this, and the control system performance boost was quite
noticable.

Out of curiosity, why do you think that the responsiveness should be
better?

and I've never seen a turn indicator in action so I don't know how
resposive these instruments are, so maybe increasing the responsiveness
isn't a good idea.

I am currently in the process of implementing the Bendix/King KAP 140
autopilot. This is a rate based autopilot, it uses the turn rate and rate
of climb as its primary inputs. The turn indicator instrument implements a
low-pass filter so that the

I've flown briefly behind two small-plane autopilots (one newer, one
older) and they

Hmmm...does the KAP140 run right off the gyro? And is the lag in the
realworld turn coordinator by design for smoother indication?
I remember reading that it was, but I no longer remember the source. It
might have been an article about gyros on AvWeb (but then again, it might
