In the F15

 

Whenever I engage "A" I always end up descending into the ground

 

Also Alt+6 does not follow the route.

 

Anyone else getting this as well or is it just me not using the A/P correctly?

 

 

edit.

ignore problem solved

wanted to bump this as I am in fact having the same problem.

 

When I fly the f15 campaign here it works okay(even though the horizontal bar is at the bottom of the flight director) and flies the correct altitudes, however just about every other time I use the autopilot the horizontal tracking bar is always at the bottom of the flight director causing the plane to follow it into the ground.

For example I just flew in Multiplier and the F15 tracks the legs just fine until again the bottom bar forces the plane into the ground

 

Is there a way to disable the f15 from tracking the horizontal bar? or am I doing something wrong here

Since you got no answer, i will make a guess about the Problem even if i dont use alt6 or A.

You mentioned route following, so my guess is the Mission Designer did not put a altitude at the planned Steerpoints, so the Route following mode ends up getting on the Deck.

Is this by any Chance the problem?

 

Maybe you can confirm if you set up a short flight in the Mission Editor.

Example

1 Start

2 Speed 300 Alt 2500

3 Speed 300 Alt 6000

and so on. I guess you understand already.

Specs:

 

System: Asus Z170-E, I7 6700K, 16GB DDR4, Asus GTX1070 8GB, 1TB M2 SSD + 2x 250GB SSD,TrackIR, TM Warthog, Saitek Rudder

Modules: A-10C, KA-50, Mi-8, UH-1H, FC3, F5E, M2000, AJS37, AV8b, F18C

Im sure that would be it however that makes the autopilot useless for track following. There needs to be an altitude hold button to fix this.

There is an altitude and roll hold available but that stops heading tracking as well
