Default Co-Pilot

I would hope that FMA just sends you a new Co-Pilot. I have two of them now and I keep moving them around to different planes or autogyros. I did have one bad experience on the first flight in the morning but I was able to land and recalibrate, then the Co-Pilot worked OK. On another occasion I had the sensor mounted on the bottom of an autogyro and the Velcro came off and it was just hanging by the cable. That got interesting but I landed OK. At other times I have flown several days with out calibrating but here in Florida it's just hot and humid every day so I suspect if conditions don't change it probably doesn't need calibrating.

Good luck if you try again.
