I have the DigiFlite II VSGV; when I was building I specifically asked TT whether the AP should be off on the buss while cranking. I was told the AP could be on while cranking. Experience has shown and TT has confirmed that the AP should be off during cranking and the aircraft should remain stopped for about 30 seconds to allow the internal sensors to determine the parameters for straight and level flight. At the next annual I intend to switch the pullable breaker for the AP to a toggle breaker.

That is what Stein recommended with my panel. It also gives you a switch to turn off if the AP goes crazy and tries to crash the airplane. J
