CWS

[Henk Werner]

Hi, I have a problem with the AP 150 KFC. during use, when I use the CWS, the AP does not come back to pitch mode, Heading mode does come back. Resetting in flight doesn't help and after parking and a few hours it's back to normal until I use the CWS again. Does anyone have an idea where to look.

Regards, Henk

What does "when I use the CWS, the AP does not come back to pitch mode" this mean? 

If the ALT button is not on, the AP should retain the pitch of when you released the CWS button. The CWS is most commonly used to change the pitch quickly/easily. It certainly won't recall where pitch was before you last pressed CWS and go back to it if that's what was expected.

A rare M20L in Germany - nice!

I mean when I disconnect the roll servo, the pitch servo  and the trim servo with the cws button, only the roll servo connect again when I released the cws button.

 

The M20L is in the Netherlands, German registered
