My D180 lags when I do an aileron roll, someone asked me if this is normal and I said yes since it has done this since I first flew back in December. I had never actually looked at my D10A at the same time it is usually up on the HSI page, well the other day I did a roll and the D10A rolls just like one would expect an attitude indicator to work no jittery lag.
I started checking this because I had some recent issues on a long cross country where first thing in the morning my D180 has a slight list to it, disconcerting to say the least as you fly up into a low overcast deck, it seems to work itself back to a normal attitude with a few minutes of lever flight but I am loosing my confidence to fly actual instruments with it.
So what is the answer, might I have something wrong with my D180? My auto pilot flies a GPS approach just fine but cant' seem to keep the course on and ILS or VOR, the compass is calibrated but wonder if the two issues are interconnected.
This video shows what is does, this was one of my first flights.
