I've recently installed a G3X system with AP and Garmin servos. I'm not totally happy with the performance yet. The altitude and VNAV seem pretty good. The tracking seems very robotic. It will roll a little and then level the wings then a few seconds later it will repeat or it will reverse the roll and then level again. It's very noticeable to me.
This can't be normal for a Garmin AP. It's nothing like my prior AP which made micro adjustments and you never really noticed any track adjustments - even in turbulence.
G3X Settings ...
The roll servo settings are: Torque 50%, Gain 0.80
The pitch servo settings are: Torque 50%, Gain 1.00
If I set the roll gain above 1.00, the plane rocks left&right.
