If
you
have
adjusted
the
roll
servo
sensitivity
to
its
maximum
setting
and
are
still
observing
unacceptably
slow
behavior,
contact
Dynon
for
assistance.
7.
Check
if
aircraft
is
“twitchy”
in
ROLL
axis
Observe
if
the
flight
controls
twitch
excessively
or
seem
overly
aggressive.
If
it
does,
this
is
an
indication
that
the
ROLL
SENSITIVITY
needs
to
be
decreased.
Decrease
ROLL
SENSITIVITY
by
1
(SETUP
MENU
>
AUTOPILOT
SETUP
>
ROLL
AXIS
>
SENSITIVITY).
There
is
no
need
to
disconnect
the
autopilot
before
making
this
change.
After
making
this
adjustment,
change
the
TRK
target
90
degrees
from
the
current
target,
and
check
if
the
autopilot
overshoots
the
new
TRK
target.
If
TRK
target
overshoot
is
observed,
disconnect
the
autopilot,
increase
ROLL
GAIN
by
0.2
(SETUP
MENU
>
AUTOPILOT
SETUP
>
ROLL
AXIS
>
GAIN)
and
start
over.
Otherwise,
proceed
to
the
next
step.
8.
Check
if
aircraft
overshoots
TRK
target
Observe
if
the
autopilot
is
overshooting
or
wandering
around
the
track
target.
The
autopilot
should
keep
the
open
triangle
of
the
track
bug
closely
aligned
with
the
small,
magenta
ground
track
triangle.
If
an
overshoot
is
observed
and
you
made
a
recent
ROLL
GAIN
adjustment,
disconnect
the
autopilot,
increase
ROLL
GAIN
by
0.2
(SETUP
MENU
>
AUTOPILOT
SETUP
>
ROLL
AXIS
>
GAIN)
and
start
over
Otherwise,
if
you
have
not
made
a
recent
ROLL
GAIN
adjustment:
1.
If
ROLL
SENSITIVITY
is
maxed
out,
disconnect
the
autopilot,
increase
ROLL
GAIN
by
0.2
(SETUP
MENU
>
AUTOPILOT
SETUP
>
ROLL
AXIS
>
GAIN)
and
start
over
2.
Otherwise,
disconnect
the
autopilot,
increase
ROLL
SENSITIVITY
by
2
(SETUP
MENU
>
AUTOPILOT
SETUP
>
ROLL
AXIS
>
SENSITIVITY)
and
start
over
9.
Verify
acceptable
autopilot
ROLL
performance
At
this
point,
the
autopilot
should
be
appropriately
tuned
in
the
roll
axis.
Performing
numerous
heading
holds
and
turns
will
help
verify
this.
Once
satisfied
with
autopilot
roll
performance,
this
procedure
is
complete.
If
autopilot
roll
performance
is
not
acceptable,
refer
to
the
Roll
Troubleshooting
section
of
this
document.
