I had a Beta unit and flew with it for several hours... Then I went to Springdale and flew with Andrew and Zach at TT.... They incorporated essentially all my comments, and while the Beta unit performed flawlessly, I now have the new software and the user interface is excellent as well....

This autopilot is a tremendous bang for the buck!!!!

With this AP, you can activate the Approach in your G-430, initiate a descent to the initial approach altitude, and it will descend, capture the initial altitude, fly to the FAF, switch to Approach mode, and take you to the fixed distance markers without touching ANYTHING!!! Truly an amazing upgrade to the Digiflight II series autopilots.....

Can't wait to go fly a coupled LPV approach with mine (when my new shoulder heals). Doug, did it switch to 'Approach mode' by itself?

Best,

Yes! Hands off!!! (If you get down soon enough...) In the Rocket I can be going fast enough that I can beat the 7 seconds Alt hold requirement.... Gotta slow down.... I hate slowing down....
