If I had to complain about anything on the Dynon ap(not sure if this is true with any of the others) is the fact that you feel the bumps in the servos in the stick when moving them with the system shut down. I hope I don't feel it when flying.
I'm about a month away from taking my plane to the airport. I just finished hooking up the ap. I have the 74 and I have to say, it's cool. I can turn on the D180 and rotate the knob for alt. I like that, because the first thing I do is reach to the alt and adjust the altitude, now I can do that without thinking on the rv. I guess gadgets can be plain out cool sometimes.

I hope I don't feel it when flying. It's like having that bumpy detent feel in the radio volume and you want to be inbetween the setting but it's on the top of the bump thing.
just my thoughts at the time being.
....for all of you builders, go ahead and at least install the servo mounting brackets while the fuse and wing is still open. I've had to crane and twist and grunt to crawl back in my fuse to drill out rivets in order to put in my autopilot now, three years after completing my airplane..aaaargggh, what a pain. Never say never, that you're not going to have an autopilot....the next guy might and I'd even consider having the mounting plates a selling point
