9) Select the Autopilot Pitch Servo configuration page to configure the servo
direction.
a) The Servo Direction should be set to Normal. The servo arm should
move clockwise to cause a nose down elevator movement and the
servo arm should move counterclockwise to cause a nose up elevator
movement.
b) The Servo Direction should be set to Reverse and the servo arm should
move clockwise to cause a nose up elevator movement and the servo
arm should move counterclockwise to cause a nose down elevator
movement.
10) Select the Yaw Damper configuration page to configure the servo direction.
a) The Servo Direction should be set to Normal. The servo arm should
move clockwise to cause a nose left rudder movement and servo arm
should move counterclockwise to cause a nose right rudder movement.
b) The Servo Direction should be set to Reverse. The servo arm should
move clockwise to cause a nose right rudder movement and the
servo arm should move counterclockwise to cause a nose left rudder
movement.
11) Set the Trim Motor Control to Disabled using the Autopilot Roll Servo,
Autopilot Pitch Servo, and Yaw Damper configuration pages as applicable.
NOTE: Initial autopilot tuning is done with the trim control disabled to avoid the
autotrim function from interfering with the initial autopilot tuning.
a) By disabling the trim motor control, this will disable autotrim and
airspeed scheduled trim, but the pilot can still control trim in the aircraft
using the normal manual electric trim inputs. Autotrim and airspeed
scheduled trim will be setup later in the autopilot setup procedure.
12) The proper minimum and maximum airspeed limits for the pitch servo can
be set in the Autopilot Pitch Servo configuration page. The pitch servo
will lower or raise the nose of the aircraft to try and keep it inside these
airspeed limits.
a) The minimum airspeed limit should be set above the stall speed of the
aircraft with some margin.
b) The maximum airspeed limit should be set below the never exceed
speed of the aircraft with some margin.
