CWS? What does CWS mean?
Anyway, i'm not touching my joystick after engaging the AP... usually i use FSP keyboard shortcuts to tell my FO what to change like heading or
altitude. Regarding the vertical speed i rotate the knob near the indicator (or in an appropriate way depending on the panel i'm using)...
I can't understand if the problem is in the autopilot or in the gauges... i think in the AP because i used the stopwatch to see if the climbing rate
shown on the VSI was correct and it is. Of course even the altimeter gauge might be corrupted in some way but i don't think so... Different planes,
with different panels (both stock panels or custom ones) using different gauges behave the same way...
