The vertical accel gain can often be left set at 1.00, but can be used to improve altitude captures when
climbing or descending in VS or VNAV mode.
1. Climb to an altitude target in VS mode and note the altitude capture.
2. Set the vertical accel gain higher if the aircraft objectionably overshoots the altitude target before
leveling off at the correct altitude.
3. Set the vertical accel gain lower if the aircraft objectionably undershoots the altitude target before
leveling off at the correct altitude.
Similar to the vertical speed gain and vertical accel gain, the airspeed gain and airspeed accel gain can be
used to improve airspeed hold performance when needed.
Pitch Gain has advanced and expert settings that can be adjusted to achieve the desired performance. These
settings are detailed in Appendix H.4.5.9
and should only be adjusted after studying the description to
properly understand their effect on pitch gain. See preceding note
to access the advanced/expert settings.
