Category Navigation Setup Navigation Setup Setting Navigation Gain Navigation Trim Gain Description Allows you to adjust how aggressively the autopilot eliminates cross-track error while following a Route-To pattern. If this value is too high, the autopilot can oscillate back and forth across the course line over long distances. If this value is too low, the autopilot may respond slowly in eliminating cross-track error. Allows you to adjust the acceptable amount of long term cross-track error while following a Route-To pattern. Only adjust this setting after the navigation gain has been set. If this value is too high, the autopilot will overcompensate for crosstrack error. If this value is too low, the autopilot will allow a large long term cross-track error. NOTE: Advanced configuration settings are available when using the advanced configuration procedure (page 13). Other settings are available during normal operation of the GHP 20. See the configuration section of the GHC 10 Owner's Manual for more information.
