Narrative:
We were cleared to enter class C airspace on a heading of 270 degrees and 2000 ft. Autoplt on and heading selected; the aircraft made a hard right turn and climbed to approximately 2800 ft. I canceled autoplt and manually descended and turned back to a 270 degree heading. We seen the helicopter at our 1:00 - 1:30 O'clock position. Jzi is an uncontrolled airport just outside class C airspace.
