Hi Folks,



I'm still considering a panel refurb - out with the pneumatic system and 

in with an EFIS - I really like the Dynon Skyview.



Anyone installed autopilot servos? I think I've seen some roll servos 

installed under the seat but I've not seen pitch servo installation.



Does anyone have any drawings/photos?



Regards,

 One of the best altitude hold (dual axis) autopilots is the Trio Pilot Pro.  Excellent full details are on the Trio web site.  

  

 I was in correspondence with Paul Mitchell, the UK agent for Trio last December and he was in touch with Andy Draper of the UK Light Aircraft Association which were in the process of giving it approval for the Europa.  The relevant correspondence copied to me was:

Are you a Europa Club Member?  Ian Rickard has been putting the final

touches to a standard Altitude Hold Mod.  As you suggested, the pitch servo

is mounted under the seat.  I have one similarly mounted under the left hand

seat, driven by my Trio Alt Hold.

Hi Martin



Ian Richard, the Mods rep on the Europa Club has done full drawings of both

roll and pitch servo installations and has been trying to get them issued as

standard factory mods.  I am sure if you rejoined the Europa Club he would

be delighted to send you some drawings

Have a look at Mod 75 (roll Autopilot) and Mod 76 (Altitude hold).  These

are now up on the Europa Web site.



At the moment they do not cover the Dynon but the servos are about the same

size. As I wrote them, if you have any further questions let me know.

Gents,

 Now that mod 75 and 76 are LAA/factory approved, If  I can be of any assistance in getting the Trio kit into your aircraft, please  contact me off line.
