Elevator control following A/P disconnect


Recommended Posts

Hello Pete

 

Well after your lesson in word definition and delta values I now know fully what you mean and after a few tweaks I'm happy with the results.

 

I do however have one more question for you.

 

On approach, just after glideslope capture, A/P disconnected, descending nicely, a short time after following the F/D cue the aircraft nose dives.

 

Is this anything to do with calibration?

 

Thank you

 

Regards

I'll answer seeing as Pete is away for a few days

 

If you fly straight and level, trim the aircraft properly and have no wind, let go of the controls ie no autopilot - what happens?

 

You don't have an assignment for your throttle also assigned to elevator? I had this once so as i was reducing/increasing throttle the nose pitched down/up too!
