Auto hover engaged, suddenly goes forward like ALT autopilot


KungFu

Recommended Posts

Had the weirdest experience with the Gazelle today, flying single player and get into auto hover. About 5 sec later, the bird starts moving forward like I have alt hold on or something at about 100km/h.

 

I think, must be fluke, so I disable auto hover and then get back into it....happens again.

 

Never had this happen, autopilot is off all systems appear normal as every other flight I've made. Just earlier in that mission I was able to auto hover properly. Not sure what changed, I took no damage.

 

Anyone ever have this happen?

Maybe irrelevant but, did you assigned fuel lever on any axis on your HOTAS if you have?

 

And if you can provide a track, it would be very easy to determine the problem.

I think it's because your master Auto Pilot is not engage. Can you confirm that?

 

If you enable master AP, auto hover works like a charm.

 

Winner Winner Chicken Dinner :) I must have accidentally turned of the main autopilot switch somehow as that is something I don't turn off. I don't have that mapped to any controls because I don't use it.

 

Turning off the individual auto pilot modes didn't seem upset the bird and it remained in auto hover with only a slight movement.

 

I tested by getting into an auto hover, made sure it was stable and then turned off auto pilot and viola the bird started moving, except this time it went starboard at about 30km/h

 

Tried several other scenarios with differing results. It seems to be related to the structure of the ground you are flying over, which I'd expect.
