Is anyone using the av80r to run their trio auto pilot and if so, how is it working for you?

Hi Andrew,

I am the Product Manager from Bendix/King and will contact the folks at Trio to determine compatibility. Can you please tell me which Trio autopilot(s) you are most interested in?

Thanks and regards,
Clark

Clark,

Both the Trio EZ-Pilot and Pro-Pilot should accept the same "generic" NMEA data string. I've flown both with a Lowrance Airmap 1000.

What I have

I have the Trio EZ pilot. I did speak with Chuck at Trio who has been extremely helpful. He believes it will work with a firmware update to the auto pilot unit. I was hoping to find someone who was using this set up and to see how happy they were with the Trio's ability to stay tightly on course.
