AVIAWORX - AVIAFLYBYWIRE MSFS

It seemed to work fine when I tested it in demo mode. Hence I bought it to smooth out some of the irks of models with a somewhat twitchy behaviour such as the CJ4 or the like. It smoothes out the flight for sure. It also disengages manual trim control but does not control trim itself. It also does not keep the aircrafts attitude as one would expect from an FBW system. This has two effects: 1. No attitude hold, hence you have to constantly correct the attitude otherwise climb or sinkrate will change constantly very fast. 2. When disengaging the FBW, the "old" elevator trim value takes over again and may cause sudden gain or, what is worse drop in altitude. Which is not a good behaviour during an approach. Both these "features" renders this fly by wire software nearly unusable for me. What it seems to do is a kind of elevator/aileron hold. What it should do is attitude hold unless overridden by yoke input. All in all I do not recommend this software as in the present state.
