REFLECTOR: BMA Autopilot

[Tom Martino]

I am also having trouble with my BM Auto Pilot.  If I engage it, it
simply disengages immediately.  No rhyme, no reason.

Craig, if you contact me on doug at customstudio.com I can relate my
experience with the BM auto pilot so far.

Anyone out there with Blue Mountain Avionics Autopilot experience?  I
tried engaging for the first time today and the servos came to life as
soon as I applied power to the controller, which is in direct conflict
with the book.  It says it shouldn't do anything until you "engage" it.
When I do try "engaging" it, the servos just jump around, and the
display flashes "DISENGAGE".  I have a EFIS LIte with 2.23 software.
This was all on the ground, although it does the same thing in flight
also.  Any suggestions?
