Roll AXIS Overview
This procedure tunes the roll autopilot servo and thus, the flight characteristics of the aircraft in heading
holds and turns. This procedure should be performed with the autopilot roll axis in track (TRK+ALT)
mode, where the purpose of the autopilot is to keep the aircraft’s GPS ground track aligned with the track
bug (as well as hold altitude).
The Roll Axis tuning process can be summarized as follows:
Change TRK command by approximately 90 degrees, and observe the results. The AP should promptly
roll into a turn towards the new TRK and smoothly reach the commanded TRK with little or no overshoot.
Note: be sure to observe ground track (TRK) and not heading (HDG) during this procedure.
