2 axis Autopilot options for steam gauge S7?

[atc310r]

Hey guys,

So I have made the decision that I am going to purchase a new Factory built S-LSA standard package from the factory. The standard package has everything I need with the exception of lights which I am going to pay the extra money to get. Down the road I would like to get it instrument certified but that is something that can be done at a later date obviously.

the one thing I cannot get from the factory without the addition of the Garmin system that adds about $20,000 to the purchase price, is a 2 axis autopilot. So, being that this will be a steam gauge aircraft I am curious what you guys have installed for two axis autopilot on your aircraft and what you recommend? Also the approximate costs.

I just looked on barnstormers and found this. I am putting a single axis tru trac AP in my Kitfox 4, and it can either be hooked to a GPS or go where you point it. I think the one in the add is the same in that regard. Google the manual and do some reading... JImChuk

I'm not sure what your legal options are with an S-LSA, but the TruTrak that Jim found would probably be a fine A/P.

I’m fairly certain that with an S-LSA you’re restricted to options approved by the manufacturer. You might want to reconsider your purchase plans if you want the freedom to equip to your personal tastes.
