Since most AP's control roll with aileron only, right aileron causes a roll to the right with a yaw to the left. It is so noticeable with the SenecaII (with no auto coordination) that the ball is eventually pegged at one extreme and then the other and you see the yaw response and aileron inputs from the AP almost 180 degrees out of phase. If you turn on auto coordination, the oscillations disappear. I tried Jon Berndt's suggestion of adding a scaling value. It had only minimal affect. Even with this set to 0.0, the yaw problem persists.
