Pilot accessories

A autopilot, components and accessories

Compass, power unit, electronics unit and rudder angle sensor make up the autopilot components. The compass transmits the boat's course to theelectronics unit. When the pilot is on autopilot, the ACU electronic computer stores the course and sends instructions to the power unit to right the helm if necessary. The rudder angle sensor measures all rudder movements to avoid the rudder veering off course.

A multitude of tiller accessories autopilot

Tiller pilot accessories such as extensions, elbows and pedestals come in handy.

• Extensions allow you toadapt the length of your cylinder to your boat, and you'll find models of different lengths.
• Elbows are ideal for adjusting the height of your tiller and rectifying horizontal alignment.
• The pedestal, another mounting accessory for the tiller pilot, raises the mounting on the bench to make up for the gap between tiller and cylinder.
• The cantilever allows the pilot to be mounted on a vertical part rather than on a bench.
• The rudder angle sensor helps to measure the position of the rudder to provide information to the electronic control unit. This ensures precise navigation and improved course keeping.
• The bulkhead socket for autopilot, installed on the cockpit bulkhead, enables connection of the autopilot. You can connect the power supply or other interfaces at the rear.
