Default GRT servos

I am installing the GRT EFIS, eng inst and auto pilot in my new (to me) RV6.
The installation instructions in the GRT A/P installation manual are somewhat limited and general in nature.

Does anyone have a picture of their roll and/or pitch servo install, preferably GRT in an RV6, but any pics would be welcome and inspiring.

Thanks,

I was told by GRT (via phone) to use the TruTrack instructions. That was weird to me but I used those instructions and it worked fine. I was also told to use their brackets.

Default Autopilot servo

I have pictures of the lateral GRT servo under the pilots seat in my RV6A. PM me your email and I will send them to you.

Default 6a GRT servo install

Hi Dewy,

Did following the Tru Track work ok for you? I just got my servos, harnesses and brackets in, and am going to do this for my 6a. Any report would be appreciated.
