So - flew my instrument cross country with my instructor today. It was decided to make the 3rd approach an autopilot coupled ILS. The Skyview autopilot flew a perfect glideslope (at least down to the last 100 feet or so) but it also flew the localizer with precisely a 1 dot offset to the right on the HSI (aircraft was right of course). There was a pretty strong crosswind from the right on the approach, but the autopilot maintained exactly the 1 dot offset all the way from before the FAF to the MAP with no apparent attempt to correct the deviation. Guidance is from an Avidyne IFD440 interfaced to the Skyview via ARINC-429.
Anybody observed this behavior before?
