Autopilot Altitude Error - MehaWatt - 01-28-2026

I'm running MSFS2020 and I typically fly the JPLogistics Cessna 152. With the TDS GTNXi on the panel, the setup closely resembles my actual panel (except I have a GTN375 in RL). The autopilot works fine with this plane in the sim, but if I select the JPLogistics 152 with wheel fairings, on the ground, the altitude setting reads 86458.69 ft, and I'm unable to change it anything else. Rebooting the autopilot with the pad doesn't help. If I select the C152 without the fairings, there's no problem, but my actual plane does have fairings, so I'd rather fly the model that matches. Any ideas on why this is happening and tips on solving the issue would be appreciated! TIA

Hello,

Unfortunately there is no official JPL 152 integration of the TDS GTNXi Pro, because of this, behavior such as what you have described could occur; they do have some custom autopilot coding. From TDS we do our best to solve any bugs that are on our end, but in this case, we recommend reaching out to JPL for an official TDS GTNXi Pro integration.
