Interface to autopilot 400A - found it !
For the most part the autopilot is self-contained within its own harness.

Unable to login to new site
Username and email not found
If I create a new account, I assume my history will be lost?
Should I wait for old history/account to be merged, or create new anyway?
Thanks?

What is required for installation??
I can see the benefit, but $4,500 installed buys a lot of AP time.
How complex to install?
Any installation manual available to get an idea of it?

Add a fuse to protect motors!
The cowl flap arrangement was poorly thought out. It exercises the wiring bundle and mechanism with each cycle.
