I have a non-touch AFS 5600 that I need to add an autopilot to the panel. I am in the “panel” portion of the built, not a flying airplane. My initial thought was to use the TruTrak Gemini AP thru the ARINC adaptor. The plane will have a remote mount Val NAV 2KR. I was not intending on installing an IFR navigator and only use the GPS off the AFS system. I’m trying to decide if I should upgrade the 5600 (probably $2k) and buy Dynon servos and control head, or just buy the TruTrak. As I have never flown an AP before, I’m not sure if one AP is more capable than the other. I do want the ability to use the AP to fly approaches.
