Here are the directions on using the Autopilot from the XP instruction manual.

The questioner is correct. You can use ALT on the autopilot to hold the current altitude. You can use VS to set a climb or descent rate. But you cannot set a rate to reach a set altitude. That function works in X-Plane 10. In my experience, it does not work in 11.

I read through the instructions that is the procedure I follow, but the autopilot blows through the desired altitude, both add-on a/c and the standard a/c?
