Today after fixing my fuel pressure problem I took my friend up and went through the auto pilot setup. I had it working pretty good in the plane early on but when I went to version 10 in the Skyview it seemed the autopilot did not fly as well. I did notice that some of my settings were not the same as I had prior to the version 10 install. So we started from scratch and we got it working very well. I'll post my settings here. Maybe they should go in the auto pilot section? I have an RV-6 with a O-360 fixed pitch prop, a Skyview 10" and two SV-32 servos.
