I know there are some V-drivers with BMA EFIS systems ... So any ideas?
I tested my auto pilot exactly as the manual instructs. I also changed out
the Ethernet cable (yes, I used a crossover cable). I also checked to make
sure the AP disconnect pin was not grounded. In fact, I do not even use the
DB-15 encoder plug ... so the socket is dormant.
Still the AP disengages immediately.
I also checked my servos (with direct voltage) ... they work.
In my opinion, there are only two other possibilities: A bad AP controller
or the serial port on EFIS is not sending correct data.
What seems more likely?
