jonsky7 Posted November 13, 2020 Share Posted November 13, 2020 Hi, I've noticed that there are several posts with regards to the "incorrect" implementation of the AFC switch that have been moved to the resolved bugs section in a post that is merged. However, the AFC switch still does not operate as the manual suggests. The AFC switch should not automatically disengage with stick input, even though it will not hold attitudes of more than 60 degrees of roll and 30 degrees of pitch, the switch should stay engaged. Also the heading hold, engaging the AFC and rolling out to less than 5 degrees of roll has lost quite a lot of it's authority. *DO NOT REFERENCE NATOPS CONTENT* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RAZBAM_ELMO Posted December 17, 2020 Share Posted December 17, 2020 AFC is operating as intended and has been checked by the SME. Marking AS INTENDED and moving to RESOLVED. To note, any further posts referencing the AFC not functioning correctly with be deleted immediately unless an ACTUAL bug exists with the system causing a CTD or other catastrophic issue Know and use all the capabilities in your airplane. If you don't, sooner or later, some guy who does use them all will kick your ass. — Dave 'Preacher' Pace, USN. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Added: AFC will disengage when more than 60 knots and more than 15 degree angle of attack Added: AFC will disengage when less than 50 knots and more than +20 degrees pitch or less than -15 degrees pitch Added: AFC will disengage when less than 50 knots and more than 20 degrees roll Added: Implemented AFC WCA logic, if AFC goes fully off, requires momentary RESET to allow it to go back on Added: AFC Advisory will trigger when AFC Alt Hold forced or commanded off, will clear on master caution reset command Added: AFC Advisory will trigger when AFC forced off or commanded off, will clear when AFC reset is commanded Added: AFC Advisory will not trigger when AFC turned off due to weight on wheels Fixed: Corrected AFC Alt Hold to lock in reference altitude when within 500 FPM after being engaged Fixed: Corrected AFC Alt Hold to disengage when leaving reference altitude by more than 250 ft Fixed: AFC will now not operate (but not disengage) when outside of 60 degrees roll and 30 degrees pitch until pilot returns within 60 degrees roll and 30 degrees pitch Improved: Adjustments to Yaw SAS feedback based on SME testing Improved: 30% stick pitch tolerance before disengaged AFC Alt Hold Improved: Adjusted for more representative pitch and roll response during AFC Improved: Adjusted stick behavior while AFC engaged to allow for more representative maneuvering flight during AFC based on SME feedback and testing.
