Optional Rudder Feedback Unit

One of the most complex and time-consuming aspects of autopilot installation is fitting the rudder feedback unit, ensuring that the geometry matches the full range of rudder movement. The Octopus rudder feedback unit solves these problems as it mounts directly to the drive unit itself.
