"Michael 182" wrote in message news  DtBc.126215$3x.55034@attbi_s54...Sounds like you have a Cessna 300A. A Century 31. It's a good autopilot and flies smoothly even with a fair amount of turbulence, and holds altitude to within a few feet. But its nav following isn't great. I think it could be fixed with some tweaking, but I've given the avionics shop enough of my money as it is, and it isn't a practical problem.

In fact I never use NAV mode on my autopilot, I just tweak the heading until the track matches what it should be (and keep an eye on it obviously). Much better than the autopilot zigzagging its way down the airways.
