I could use some help or explanation on use of autopilot systems when it comes to approaches. Im flying the cirrus vision jet. Lets say im doing an ILS og RNAV approach into ENGM. I have clicked APR and caught the glidepath, gear down and 1 notch of flaps doing 150KT. ive got two whites and two red…

I have heard that it is supposed to shut off at like 200ft, but it is erroneously shutting off at 400ft. Seems there should be some kind of alarm also

hmm, im sure i have seen a youtube video of someone autopilot-landing it all the way to touchdown. im trying my bestest to find the video but can’t. This might have been msfs 2020 though. maybe it doesnt let you fully land in 2024.(?) I wish i knew more about the system honestly so i could tell wtf …

You can’t autopilot land in Vision Jet (in sim or in real life). Landing is the most critical part of any flight, you aren’t going to put that in the hands of autopilot. The only exception is for Cat III and you aren’t doing that in a Vision Jet. The vision Jet does technically have an “autoland” f…

I put this in whislist. Cirrus Jet autopilot does not disengage when less than 400 feet from the ground

Wearing my Partner Dev Hat We talked to our owner/operators (O/Os) when we first rolled out our version of the Vision Jet and everyone agreed - the Autopilot WILL fly you to the threshold if you let it. Not advised obviously since that’s not an Autoland Mode (and most of them were flying G1s). I my…

So are you disagreeing that AP disconnects automatically at 400’ ?

I’m saying the O/Os on our jet’s test team categorically state that the AP stays engaged all the way down if the pilot doesn’t intervene, and that’s how we built our jet’s Avionics behavior. MS-Asobo/WT jet has a different implementation. I recommend someone open a Bug Report and add this to the li…

Just as an authoritative bookend to this thread, please see the comments by RISCFuture below. He’s one of our O/Os and was instrumental to getting our version of the Vision Jet as close to real life as possible in 2020. [image] Vision Jet bugs Aircraft & Systems I am a re…
