When choosing a power pack, consult the autopilot manufacturers literature for an appropriate power pack to give the required hard-over time. Note: When sizing the power pack, you should size it for the volume of the servo cylinder.

When setting up your autopilot note that there is approx. 1/8" valve shift in either direction. Consult autopilot manufacturer to ensure your adjustments are correct.
