I have a Tru Trak ADII AP and experienced the same symptoms when I first en
gaged the thing in flight - except both axis were screwed up.. Called Tru T
rak and very quickly (about 2 seconds) was told to check the wiring polarit
y. Reversed the connections on both servos and the thing has worked fine.
It takes real inattention to detail to screw up both servo connections - an
d I obviously was the man for the job!

Boo, I figured out the bank problem. Wired correctly, just needed to change
CW to CCW and it worked. Last night I tried again and now the pitch isn't
correct. Plane went into a shallow dive and stayed in it until reached 780
fpm decent and I disengaged the AP and pulled up. Not as scary as flipping
over, but I'm losing faith in automation. I'll have to find out what and h
ow much to adjust, Thanks, Bill
