AP70 Autopilot Controller
The AP70 is Simrad's flagship autopilot controller, embedded with the most comprehensive technology from over 60 years of experience. This state-of-the-art, commercial grade autopilot combines an unrivalled adaptive autopilot system with a bright and clear, color display and a user interface designed by captains for captains.
The AP70 Autopilot Control is ideal for both simple installations where International Maritime Organization (IMO) approval is not required, yet can be configured (by matching with an approved computer) to meet the IMO requirements for a Type Approved autopilot. Install the AP70 as a stand-alone display, or network it as a second or third station for ultimate vessel control.
