THANK YOU for getting straight to the autopilot instructions and not going through all the tedious cold & dark/pre-taxi/taxi checklists. Can't wait for the anti-crabbing control to be implimented. Thumbs up given👍🏽
The Sim is very basic in how it can do Radio Altitude station keeping, the sims radio altimeter looks straight down so has not idea how rapidly terrain height is changing. In the real world a terrain following radar is used that looks forward of the aircraft. The crash dive you went into was due to the condition of the aircraft when you activated the Baro Hold. You were at 3100ft in a +3000fps climb. The aircraft was at 4000ft before the climb leveled off then dove trying to get back to 3100ft, at that point it was at +3000fps decent and doing 200kts. The documentation is pretty clear the Alt Hold modes should be engaged in stable level flight.
Yes I knew what I did wrong, I also know how a Rad Alt works, I had all of this when figuring out the IFE Tornado "TFR" but thank you for putting in the effort to make me look as small as possible!

Just tried the RADALT HOLD for the 1st time, its insane, yes the crabbing is an issue at the min but im sure the guys will be right on that asap.
I use Rad Alt Hold when transversing over water.
Hoping for a new cold start and shut down 😉 autopilot tutorial
the built in interactive checklist is very very easy to follow
