:pilotic: hello fellow simmers N7163C here. just got a new sweet ride. the Tecnam P2002 Sierra. very nice and light to the touch aircraft.

comes in many colors but the gps is an optional extra.... nice and sweet plane to fly.... give it a go....... cheers :hat:


on my 3rd flight trying this little beauty. i climbed to 5900 ft as i disengaged the Auto pilot the plane roll to the right with a nose down and began to spin

out of control. i did manage to rescue the flight.... with just 200 hundred feet of the ground.... it was nice not to hit the ground....

on my next flight will disconnect the auto pilot at a higher Alt. and see what happens next......Posted Image

I have had that happen before. Did you trim out the AC before setting the AP? Nice plane and pic's.

Yeep, nice experience. But i think you don´t have to use an AP or isn´t needful on this light aircraft. To avoid surprises, just until the aircraft is configured then use the autopilot. ;)

p.s. only for long-range-trips on top is a useful thing on such aircrafts. :cool:
