been made to disappear and there
has been no speed change, the
bars can be ignored if they

Power Loss

If there is a momentary loss

of electrical power, the autopilot
will disengage. When this
happens it is necessary to do a

GYRO SET

before re-engaging

the autopilot. To accomplish this,
the aircraft must be held very
straight during which time the
encoder knob is pressed to do

GYRO SET

.

After this, engage

the autopilot and note the extent
to which

TRK

differs from

SEL

.

If this is more than 15

° repeat the

gyro set procedure. The
difference between

TRK

and

SEL

will be reduced at the rate of 8

°

per minute by the automatic gyro
centering system within.
