INTRODUCTION
Thank you for buying a Navaid Devices autopilot. We appreciate your business, and we
will support you in whatever way we can to make sure you get years of service from our
product.
We are quite confident that, after you read and follow the installation and checkout
instructions contained in this manual, your autopilot will become one of your most valued
flying tools. We like to think that you will soon come to regard it as one of your better
investment decisions. Experienced pilots often make go or no-go decisions on a trip
based on whether or not they have a working autopilot.
Should you ever change airplanes, you may want to use the autopilot in the new aircraft.
This can be done, but you may need to change it from 14 to 28 volt operation, or vice
versa. In this case the unit must be returned to Navaid for installation of the appropriate
motor and solenoid. Otherwise you just need new mounting hardware.
If you have any unresolved problems after reading this manual, give us a call. We do not
pretend to know all the answers, but we have been able to make the system work in every
type of airplane in which it has been tried so far. And we can usually refer you to
someone who has successfully installed the autopilot in a similar airplane.
Good luck. Give us a call if you run into a problem.
