You'll find it very difficult to perform a good CDA doing that. It's a bit agricultural and priorities speed over descent rate. Not great for CDAs. Youre better of using VS and then you have direct control on your ROD and speed at the same time rather than a wishy washy variable rate because the AP is going for speed first.
