I have no luck with the CWS system. After takeoff, I will turn on the AIL channel to control Lateral Navigation and the autopilot just holds the current pitch. This is fine but when I want to modify the pitch it is impossible for me to do so. I nudge it slightly and hold it - nothing. I push it all the way forward - nothing. The elev trim just clicks away contrary to my input. If I turn the elev channel on it does the same. Nothing matters from hdg, nav, or man modes it will not let me modify the pitch.

I like the plane but flying manually all the way to cruise, while changing radios, navigating to way points, changing the course and heading bugs, is all rather taxing. This is compounded by the problem that if I'm climbing at 2000/ft.pm then look away to change a radio or something I can look back and I'm climbing 6000 ft.pm or descending.
