Subject: Recommendations for autopilots
Info: (10366 views) Posted: Thursday 2-14-13 09:54:08 PM
I have the X5 and purchased it because the gyro, which I wanted for down wind ocean swells. Plus, you can easily plug in a sensor for a hand held remote. Once in while the main display registers "no signal" which I solve by pressing "auto" again.

A few other single handed expresses also have the X5.

Contact me via the roster if you want to talk.
