Autopilot

posted 09-12-2008 by Bob Fliegel

Installing autopilot on the H260 is fairly straight forward. Objective was to have everything portable. I did not want to worry about theft or damage from the salt air and some of the units - like the GPS - I use for other applications like camping or hiking.



Note cockpit mounts for wires. Lower wire mount came with the Raytheon ST1000 Autohelm. Upper mount for the Garmin 76 GPS wire is the plastic bottle neck of a Poweraide bottle glued in place with 3M 5200.
