vic008 17 Posted February 15, 2018 Share Posted February 15, 2018 Put a trimtab on back of rudder with idea that autohelm can hook up to it, and be very low on power consumption. Is it possible this will work?(No windvane) Meanwhile it operates the tiller fine. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ex TL systems 63 Posted February 15, 2018 Share Posted February 15, 2018 Should work but operation will be in reverse from if working on tiller, and will need to make sure the tiller pilot is not swung off center too much as the rudder moves. The pilot can be mounted in line with the boat if that works better. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
