Extended Description

The SPX Wheel Pilot is the successor to the popular S1 Wheel drive system. The new SPX system uses the versatile ST6002 control head combined with the SPX SmartPilot course computer for maximum performance. Permanently installed and fully enclosed, this is a drive system that delivers the convenience and performance of an inboard autopilot. Gone are the obstructive and untidy belts and wires of conventional wheel autopilots. The SPX pilot has a gyro and can be used without rudder feedback transducer.

The innovative SPX-5 Wheel autopilot is equipped with the fully enclosed MkII wheel-drive for simple installation and below deck autopilot performance.

Complete with everything needed for easy installation, the SPX-5 Wheel is quick to fit and simple to use.

Mount the separate control unit where it is easy to reach and see. The patented fluxgate compass is mounted separately for optimum performance. The LCD shows the pilot status and repeats up to seven pages of user-defined navigation data from your ST60 system. It is also equipped with the latest SeaTalkng networking and a standard rate-gyro processor ensuring razor sharp course keeping under any conditions.

The SPX-5 Wheel is designed for yachts with a laden displacement of up to 16,500lbs (7,500kg).



Remember, always take the fully laden displacement weight of your vessel into account. This is often 20% above the designed displacement. Do not choose a pilot which will always be working at the limit of its design capabilities.
