Hi. I have SkyView touch with Dynon autopilot and servos. It's great. I have 2 small issues with the AP:
(1) When it's holding a steady heading the wings don't stay level, it slowly rolls from side-to-side, especially when there's a crosswind .. i.e. one wing drops a bit .. then the AP compensates and it rolls to the other side .. and then back. If I put a little pressure on the stick I can prevent it but that's not really the idea of 'autopilot'. Does anyone have an idea what to adjust to make the AP a bit 'tighter' and stop it rolling side to side ? All the functions of the SkyView seems to be just fine.
(2) It reports 'roll slip' very easily i.e. even when there's not much wind. This was not always the case. Previously it only did that in really strong winds. I have not changed any configuration, but the flaps system in the aircraft has been modified recently, which I suppose may have disturbed the AP setup. Any way to make the roll servo more authorative ?
If anyone with some experience can advise, I'd be very grateful.
