The accident thread (and this also) makes comments about stability considerations and SAS kit.
I have only had the one flight exposure to the Cheyenne quite some years ago (can't recall now whether a 1 or 2) and, from that short observation (which was strictly qualitative), it appeared to be a not unreasonable platform.
While I don't have specific knowledge of the system in this series of aircraft, I think I have a handle on the basics of problem and solution ... can I enquire of those with detailed Type-specific knowledge what the perceived deficiencies in the SAS on this aircraft might be ?
I think that, provided the thread doesn't venture into speculation regarding the recent accident and is sensitive to the feelings of those who have been touched by the deaths (and there will be many of us who knew the pilot over the years), then there may be some value in the discussion.
