Simrad AC10 Autopilot computer

The autopilot computer contains advanced software algorithms and is the brain of the system. They incorporate position and navigation data from the GPS chartplotter and wind, speed and depth data from the instrument system. The output is a smooth proportional control of the rudder with the outmost precision providing excellent steering performance in any sea condition with a minimum of power consumption.

The Autopilot Compass
The performance of the heading sensor is essential for the autopilot. The best steering algorithms cannot compensate for an unstable and inaccurate heading reference.  The Simrad AP25 series of autopilots comes with the latest generation of Mini Gyro (rate compass) as standard to offer you the best steering performance available.

Remote controls
Remote controls are very useful auxiliary equipment for the autopilot. You can power steer the boat from any wanted location, handheld or fix mount, using buttons or a lever.  Remote course change and full follow-up control is also available depending on the model.  By adding the analog Simrad IS15 Rudder display you have an elegant rudder angle indicator to supplement your remote.
