cferr59 Posted December 24, 2023 Report Posted December 24, 2023 I have an Accutrak B-12 and Accuflite B-11. The B-12 is connected to a BI-818 unit. When I use only the B-12, it allows the heading to be deflected 30 degrees before it corrects and then it overshoots the heading by 30 degrees in the other direction. If I also turn on the Accuflite without turning the NAV side, it still hunts for the heading but not as badly. Should the Accutrak B-12 be able to be used by itself? I want to troubleshoot this but wanted to make that I understand how it is supposed to work. Also, what does the Accuflite do if you don't turn on the B-12 and don't turn on NAV? Is it only for the manual turn function? Quote

takair Posted December 25, 2023 Report Posted December 25, 2023 The heading should track the heading easily within a couple of degrees. Each system can be used independently or together. A well set up system will track as well as most modern autopilots.
