| Subject: | SL-30 problem - on to the next phase |
Thanks to those that responded to the initial post.
Looks like reseating everything got things working - now I need to learn what it
does and how to use it.
Here's my configuration:
S-Tec 30 dual axis autopilot with GPSS steering module.
Century NSD 1000 HSI
SL30
GNC420W
Anyone else out there with a similar configuration?
I am now able to get the SL30 NAV portion to display on the NSD 1000 which sends
the signal to the GPSS module for tracking and I can get it to turn using the
needle pointer. It doesn't seem to track very well in either the LO-TRK or
HI-TRK modes. After getting back from my test flight and reading...the manual
says something to the effect of starting within 10 degrees of the selected radial
and within one needle-width before engaging either of the TRK modes. I didn't
get this close before engaging the LO-TRK and it didn't seem to track well
at all. Is it really that sensitive in the setup requirement? Does it really
track well if it is set-up properly first?
Following a GPS course is really tight and I am really happy with that feature
- it does a real good job with the set-up and intercept all by itself. I am hoping
that the VOR/LOC tracking is as good...even if I have to set it up first.
As before, your input is appreciated,
Ralph

I have a bunch of noise in my headset, which is not ambient noise.- I hav
e isolated it to the regulator and/or alternator.- I built a SeaRey with
a 912 UL Rotax engine which has an intenral alternator.- I would have pre
ferred to use one of the Radio Shack filters but they are off the market.
- Is there a good substitute?- Ameriking?
