Happens every time. Aircraft was not out of trim. We verified that by having the airplane in perfect trim before engaging the autopilot. Tried that numerous times and got the same result.

A friend has an RV9A with a single screen AFS 3500 EFIS and an AFS autopilot. When he disconnects his autopilot from the EFIS screen there is a very pronounced altitude bump. But when he disconnects...
This has happened two out of the last three flights. #1 cylinder EGT does not indicate any heat until,I reach cruise altitude. I know the engine is running properly since it is running smooth, CHT is...
But you have a slider. That’s what I have and prefer.
I have a 9 with dual AFS 4500 system. Last year we installed the Garmin GPS175. We also purchased the ARINC 429 module. All works without any problems. So yes, the ARINC module does work with a 4500...
Thank you.
After a little more investigation I find that my system does not have the flap position indicator. I found on page 86 of the AFS manual what piece I need to order from Ray Allen. My question is about...
I have a dual screen 4500. My flap indication always shows full flaps down. How do I calibrate to show proper flap positions?
I have an AFS 4500 with an O-360 engine on my RV9.
Went flying yesterday and all was good.
Today on start up I first had an intermittent manifold pressure indication on my EFIS, indication then...
That’s a little confusing. Are you saying that when I have my EFIS in Lat Nav, Vertical will automatically switch to Arm? I understand having Lat in Nav to follow the course, not in HDG. But please...
When flying an LPV approach do I need to manually switch from Vertical Alt to Vertical Arm or will my 4500 switch automatically?
Thank you Shawn. Will check that out tomorrow.
On my last flight the oil temp registered between 117-134F. It was during a three hour cross country flight. Previous flight was 2.5 hours and oil temp was right below 180F. Before I install an oil...
I do,have two questions.
I have SV on my PFD but not on the MFD so I do not get terrain alerts, red, on my MFD which is used for my navigation map. What do I need to install to get terrain info on...
Don’t have any bugs that I know of. Just asking if AFS will be adding any features for legacy units, I have dual 4500’s, like you folks do for the latest 5000 series units.
I understand your focus on the AF-5600 units but is there any chance you will offer software updates for the AF-4500 series? I
Would the GDL-52 R work for ADS-B in with the AF-4500? Right now I
Shawn, are you saying that on the MFD I now need to change the GPS/NAV Data Source 2 (on the MFD) to Remote Nav?
I made the changes to my configuration as you folks suggested to me on a Facebook post. I still have one question. AFS comment said for me to decide how my SL-30 was wired and it should only be...
I should add that the SL-30 is wired to the PFD.
Thank you Shawn. I do have an AF-ARINC module. I think the issue may be the configuration of the Serial Ports. PFD is configured as follows: Port 1 AVTN/AVTN, Port 2 TRFC/ICARUS, Port 3 SL-30, and...
I also have the select switch to control the vizion through the EFIS or the GPS.
I have dual AFS 4500 screens.
I recently installed an ARINC 429, the TruTrak Vizion 385 and a Garmin 175. I am trying to control my autopilot from my EFIS. How should my screens be configured? ...
That is great to learn. I would much prefer to see my geo referenced plates on my EFIS rather than my iPad.
How do you get the geo referenced approach plates to show on my 4500? I have been using my iPad with Foreflight but would prefer to see them on my AFS 4500 moving map. I have a Jeppesen...
