Tomcat Rolling

IN the last few days, my Tomcat will suddenly have a tendency to roll to the right, even with hands off the stick.  I hit Right Ctrl Enter and the scale there shows the stick dead center but the Tomcat still rolls right.  If I let it roll, it will actually do a full barrel roll--that much roll!

Switching to the Hornet, nothing like that happens.  A friend of mine flew the Tomcat on his rig and he experienced the same thing, but the roll was to the left.  And his Hornet was fine.

We both checked our flaps etc and nothing was out of the ordinary.

Anyone else experiencing this?

Yes, this is a bug.  Have a report in here:

The fix action at this time is to engage/disengage autopilot.

As in flip the autopilot switch up then down, or hit the pinky switch then hit it again?

Thanks, I tried that and it did at least make her more manageable.  I think for good measure I also hit the pinky switch a few times.
