I like this airplane and so I'm trying to work through one glaring problem. . .namely the Autopilot. If I knew how I would make a pop-up with a different AP. The main problem is that it won't hold a set altitude. Airspeed seems to really throw it into a tizzy. . .at or below 180kts it comes real close to working but not quite. Above 180kts. . .forget it, you have to hand fly it and constantly trim to keep it straight and level.

 

I found nothing wrong with the VC although, as you can see in the image above the shadow effect doesn't match the gauge layout. If you're artistically inclined, that can be fixed by simply loading the panel texture into Paint Shop Pro or Photoshop and eliminating the shadow that's there and applying an overall shadow effect to replace it.
