Autopilot Servo Installation, Configuration, and CalibrationFigure 62 - Flight Director - Single Cue (Inverted-V)Figure 63 - Flight Director - Dual Cue (cross bars)For more details on Flight Director behavior, see the SkyView Pilot’s User Guide.To set the Flight Director style:1. Go to the Autopilot Flight Director Adjust Page (SETUP MENU > AUTOPILOT SETUP >FLIGHT DIRECTOR).2. Choose SINGLE CUE or DUAL CUE.3. Press ACCEPT to save the value or press CANCEL to return to the Autopilot Setup Menu.Roll Axis ConfigurationRoll Axis TorqueThe roll axis torque parameter specifies how much torque the servo will exert before slipping.Servo slip is indicated by the word SLIP in black letters in a yellow box on the Top Bar for the rollaxis as shown in Figure 64.Figure 64–Example Roll Axis Servo Slip WarningTorque must be set high enough to prevent any slip due to air loads, but low enough that thepilot can comfortably override the autopilot should the need arise. If the servo slipscontinuously, the autopilot cannot fly the aircraft. Torque is specified in percent (%) ofmaximum the servo is capable of exerting. The minimum is 10%, the maximum is 100%, and thedefault value is 100%. If you can override the servo at 100% torque, use this default value.To test roll axis servo override force:1. Return to the Main Menu.2. Center the aircraft controls.3. Enter the Autopilot Menu (MAIN MENU > AUTOPILOT).4. Press the LEVEL button to engage the autopilot.Now, take the controls and override the servo by moving to either roll left or roll right. Ensurethat you are comfortable with the amount of force it takes to override the servo. If you are not,decrease the roll servo torque value by 10% and repeat the test.10-16 SkyView System Installation Guide - Revision O
