I was close to ordering a GX autopilot system. But, now it looks like I could order 2 Garmin servos and the GMC305 control head to get a complete 2 axis autopilot sytem controllable through the G3X and/or GMC305.
Is my thinking correct?
Thanks, Mike

I just installed the TruTrak servo mounts and ran the wiring for GX auto pilot servos, do I need to change anything out for this nice new cheaper (price wise) setup?
Thanks Mike

Search "G900", you'll find them there.

GMC305.
Hi Matt
Reference the GMC 305, is there any thought of making a vertical mounting module?
It will probably simplified the installation in an RV-4..
Is there anyone looking for a complete Skyview system?? 
Thanks
Bruno

Jake,
Take a long hard look at this in how they would be mounted and how you would use them. You may find that multiple portrait style screens are just as efficient or more so in terms of actual installation flexibility, usability and redundancy than larger screens.
Other larger screen systems typically divide the screen up into smaller sections anyway that essentially reduce that large screen into smaller functional areas.
Take a 10" Skyview that has 1024 x 600 resolution. In 50/50 split mode, that is 512 x 600... In 40/40/20 mode it gets split up even further. Just remember that a two screen G3X system has 25% more pixels than a 10" Skyview screen and will be very close to the same price....
The point is that there are many more factors to consider other than raw screen size. RV panels are not that big and finding the room to stuff it all in can be a challenge.
