I have a Skyview installed in an RV-12. For the last 15 hours, the autopilot has work perfectly. Today, however, it refused to hold altitude or descend. The servo was engaged; I could feel the clutch slip and received the 'slip' annunciation on the display when I overrode it.
Once on the ground, I tested it again. No matter where I put the altitude bug, it just kept pulling into a climb. Disconnect worked fine.
I'm wondering if anyone can provide me with a troubleshooting plan. Is this more likely to be something happening in the wiring, the servo, or the Skyview?
