Under these wind settings, it is impossible for me to land on the carrier by ACLS. Manually or if the wind is switched off, it is not a problem.

Seems for me that the ACLS can't handle the burble effect.

Strange that wind off would eliminate burble problem, when lower natural wind (thus higher carrier speed) results in stronger burble. Higher natural wind (thus lower carrier speed) should reduce burble effect.

I'd expect similar burble strength with same WOD thinking as carrier moving through the air mass. btw: Tests should be repeated now - last time I tried ACLS in 2.8 it might have killed you.

I don't know the science behind it but I've heard it mentioned on the Fighter Pilot Podcast. It does make some sense though, as natural winds would be angled down LA, putting that turbulent airflow more to the starboard rather than directly behind the superstructure.  Stronger winds might even just blow that dirty air out of the way. I wish I could find a written source.

...and ACLS does not work with FFB sticks.  Pressing the A/P ref/NWS button results in a non-recoverable nosedive into the sea.

Dropbox it? I have spent all my storage on this forum, so everything I post is from other places. Tracks/files from Onedrive, pictures from Imgur etc.

I adapted. It's actually better in a way. At least with the screenshots, (no ridiculous "null" ever), and large attachments.

How do you do this with One Drive?  I have uploaded the Saved Track to my One Drive, but don't understand how I can post a link to that on here.   The file is 65Mb.

Hi Joe! Open Onedrive on your browser. Right click on the file and choose share or similar. Then you choose people who has the link have access, not edit. And then you copy the link and paste it here.

Here is a Track file (thank you @MAXsenna), that may feature previously unidentified problems with the Autopilot.  Please note that I use a Microsoft Sidewinder FFB2 stick. 

Just after take-off ATT-HOLD wouldn't work. Cycling the three SAS modes managed to restore some functionality, but pressing A/P Ref still resulted in an un-commanded nosedive.  Very similar to what happens when you try to use ACLS with a FFB stick.  

A Zone 5 mission out of Nellis: Saved Track.trk  Unfortunately this track does not show exactly what I witnessed whilst flying the mission (I didn't get shot for a start), but may still give some clues.  You'll see some shaking occurring when trying to engage the A/P for example.  This is not what I saw at the time, but may represent the problem.  

I've also noticed if you have A/P on and jump from RIO to Pilot's station, the plane nosedives and will not recover unless you disconnect A/P.  I believe this might also be related to ACLS not currently working with FFB sticks.

Perhaps better representative of a problem with ACLS and FFB sticks will be this saved track, where pressing the A/P ref button results in certain doom (last 30 secs of the track):

Could @IronMike, @fat creason, @Naquaii, or whomever take a look at this please?  Thanks.
