My 400A is still working, thanks to Auto Pilots Central. When I was last there, I asked what was next when it quit and was told the 55X. The 2021 MSRP was $21K just for the A/P. So who knows, maybe the 400A will outlast me.
I have the 60-2 with electric trim, altitude and vertical speed presets. Very nice to fly behind.

My understanding is that AP Central can repair just about anything on a 400A - Why not just let them keep it flying for you rather than spend $30k on a new AP + install???

It may not be a modern digital AP, but its certainly better than nothing!
