    Looks good Mike. I copied your pictures and put them in the future ideas folder. Maybe someday . . .

    just looked a your posting of your Dynon autopilot in your kit fox. Did you make your servo pan or did purchase it. I have kit fox that I want to put a Dynon autopilot in.

    Kitfox sells a mounting kit for Garmin Servos. It works just as well for Dynon servos (It's what I used.)

    The mounting bolt pattern for Dynon and Garmin servos is the same. Garmin servos have through-holes, and Dynon have threaded, so you'll have to buy some extra screws, but everything else from the Kitfox kit will work just fine.

    Just bent it up out of .040 thick 6061-T6 aluminum. Simple and works well.
