vertical speed

[the_nick]

somebody asked on a time the question with the vertical speed , that it goes only with the autopilot max -700 and +700 and what to do
about it , and someone said check the aircraft cfg. in autopilot and check the vertical speed , now I fly with a king air and there is
the standard vertical speed 1800 , just after taking of he accept the 1800fpm but from the time reaching the first level of altitude he doesn't
do this anymore and he stays with the +700fpm and with decending it is always -700 witch is to slow to reach te assingd level on time. I
found out now that I can help the airplane goes faster down but then I have to play all the time with the trim , witch is getting anoying after
a while because you have to watch the angle of attack , and then you get the instructions where you have to respond on, and if you stop
fast with the trim the airplane make a drastic move back where the passengers aren't happy with.
I hope somone have another solution for this because he doesn't accept it in the aircraft cfg.

i presume you're using fsp's keyboard input for the altitude change... when you do an altitude change, start it manually with the mouse
and the AP altitude window, dont use the "a" key until climb / descent is already established... or use something like FSnav for Vnav.

ok I've tested it , and like you said it works
but isn't there a way that it will also function with the FSP input, it is such a luxury
