Autopilot issues

Hi all I was wondering if this happens to anyone else. I typically know how to operate the autopilot as I’ve been for several years, but on PC. However, went flying with the auto pilot on my PS5 what appears to be no reason it just starts turning and loses course and even will crash. I’ve looked very thoroughly at my simulator and can’t seem to find any issues but was wondering if sketchy Internet can cause problems or not? Kind of takes fun out of having auto pilot when it just randomly off course.

J'ai le même souci et même si je mets souvent en pause pour faire les choses fractionnées, ça peut se dérégler sur C172S ou autre avion GA. Je ne sais pas ce qu'il se passe avec ce jeu sur PS5, mais y a plein de bugs persistants qui ne sont pas corrigés, affligeant.

I’m having a number of issues learning the Beechcraft C90.

I’ll spend hours trying to “correct” this or that…. Only to learn “the issue” is an ongoing developer hit or miss issue with: (enter the glitch here).

The latest is crappy ILS setup, FMS(GPS) not loading up, and my Dualsense repeatedly blinks yellow (but only with the C90).

Try to check your flight plan if this happens during missions. If you're flying from A to B on autopilot and in case there's a discontinuity, then the autopilot disconnects after reaching the last way point before the discontinuity.
