Garmin Compact Reactor 40 Hydraulic Autopilot with GHC 20 Corepack

Garmin Compact Reactor 40 is an ideal Entry-level Autopilot System Includes Compact Reactor 40 starter pack and GHC 20 marine autopilot control unit Recommended only for single-engine outboard boats less than 30-foot-long1 Solid-state 9-axis Attitude Heading Reference System (AHRS) Minimises heading error, course deviation, rudder movement and power consumption while providing a comfortable ride Minimal commissioning and calibration Offered in 3 different corepacks, this autopilot lets you configure your autopilot setup, depending on the features you need and how much you want to spend. Buy the starter pack (compatible chartplotter required2), add a GHC™ 20 marine autopilot control unit, or add both GHC 20 and the Shadow Drive™ attachment. The autopilot is easy to install with flexible mounting options and quick, easy commissioning. Choose a corepack with our patented Shadow Drive technology, and simply turn the wheel to take control of the helm; hold a constant course to re-engage. It integrates with compatible Garmin electronics to control the autopilot from the chartplotter display. And it can be engaged to follow an Auto Guidance path3 (requires BlueChart® g2 Vision® HD charts). Solid-state 9-axis AHRS With its advanced solid-state 9-axis AHRS, Compact Reactor 40 provides you with more flexible mounting options. In addition, this new system greatly minimises heading error, course deviation, rudder movement and power consumption while providing a comfortable ride for all on board. Reacts to Conditions This amazing autopilot actually reacts to the sea to hold your course. Even when the boat is pitching and rolling, you can remain confident that the Reactor 40 autopilot will keep you on your desired course. Minimal Commissioning and Calibration All autopilots require commissioning and calibration — all of them. We know you just want to get on the water, so we made this process as fast and easy as possible. That’s the power of simple. Full Integration with Garmin Electronics Combined with our compatible networked electronics, you can have full control of Compact Reactor 40 from wherever you are on the boat. In addition to holding its course in virtually all weather and wind conditions, the system can smoothly perform a variety of pre-programmed trolling and search procedures. Plus, with BlueChart g2 Vision HD charts (sold separately), you gain optional features such as Auto Guidance3, which automatically steers GPS paths. Stay in Control with Shadow Drive Technology The Compact Reactor 40 autopilot supports optional patented Shadow Drive technology. This gives you the security of knowing you maintain control, even when the autopilot is engaged. The Shadow Drive system automatically disengages the autopilot if the helm is turned, giving you the freedom to manoeuvre the boat. The autopilot automatically re-engages when you hold a steady course. Connect to Networked Devices Compact Reactor 40 can be operated directly from your compatible Garmin chartplotter1 screen or by using up to 3 GHC helm control units. GHC communicates with the autopilot system via your NMEA 2000® network, so autopilot heading data can be shared easily with other devices. This enables MARPA and chart overlay when connected to a Garmin radar and chartplotter. An optional handheld wireless remote control is also available. *Not recommended for fishing or applications that require holding heading while trolling or at low speeds. For applications that require precise heading control while trolling or at low speeds, our higher-performance Reactor 40 models are recommended. **Requires echoMAP™ CHIRP 5x/7x/9x chartplotter/sonar combos; ECHOMAP Plus 6x/7x/9x chartplotter/sonar combo; GPSMAP® chartplotter series 7200/7400/7600/8000/8200/8400/8500/8600; or GPSMAP chartplotter/sonar combo series 7x2/9x2/10x2/12x2 ***Auto Guidance is for planning purposes only and does not replace safe navigation operations.
