Not recommended for fishing or activities that require maintaining heading while fishing at low speeds or when working in rough seas. For activities requiring precise heading control, we recommend using our higher-performance Reactor 40 models. The Compact Reactor features a gear pump design with limited performance compared to similar-flow piston pumps. Not recommended for power steering installations, engines over 150 hp, or vessels with heel angles exceeding 12 degrees. For best results, the pump should be mounted within 6' of the steering cylinder.
- Pair the Reactor 40 autopilot with the <a href='https://www.garmin.com/es-ES/p/822114'><span style='white-space: nowrap; font-weight:inherit;'>GHC 50</span></a> autopilot instrument to add a dedicated touchscreen for the autopilot to the helm. Additionally, the <a href='https://www.garmin.com/es-ES/p/822114'><span style='white-space: nowrap; font-weight:inherit;'>GHC 50</span></a> allows you to share data and settings with compatible Garmin multifunction displays and other installed Garmin devices.
- Control the autopilot from anywhere on the boat using your compatible Garmin devices, including the Reactor autopilot remote, select <a href='https://www.garmin.com/es-ES/p/818324/pn/010-02582-60'>quatix</a>® marine watches, and many more (requires a compatible Garmin plotter or <a href='https://www.garmin.com/es-ES/p/822114'><span style='white-space: nowrap; font-weight:inherit;'>GHC 50</span></a> autopilot instrument).
- When connected to a compatible Garmin plotter, all Reactor 40 corepacs offer features for both sail and powerboats, such as heading and wind control, step turns, and tack/gybe maneuvers when linked with a wind sensor (sold separately). You can also enjoy other benefits, such as route tracking and Auto Guidance+™3 features.
- This corepac is the perfect autopilot solution for single outboard engine boats less than 25' (7.6 m) in length<sup>1</sup>. Manual steering input is not required to maintain heading, particularly when sailing at moderate or high speeds<sup>2</sup>.
- The advanced 9-axis solid-state AHRS system allows you to mount the Reactor 40 unit almost anywhere and in any orientation. It also reduces power consumption, minimizes heading errors, and more.
- All autopilots require a startup and calibration process. The Reactor 40 makes it quick and easy. This autopilot is easy to install with flexible mounting options.
- Designed for boats less than 25' (7.6 m) in length, the basic hydraulic Compact Reactor 40 autopilot helps you explore paradise worry-free.
- Hold your heading on the water: this autopilot reacts to conditions, so you can maintain peace of mind even when experiencing pitch or roll movements.
- Maneuver the boat with greater freedom. This corepac allows optional Shadow Drive technology to automatically disable the autopilot when turning the steering wheel.
- The Auto route feature has been created exclusively for planning purposes and does not exempt users from employing responsible behavior in navigation operations.
- All you want is to get on the water, which is why we have streamlined and simplified calibration. This is the essence of the "The Power of Simple" concept.
- Even when experiencing pitch or roll movements, this autopilot reacts to sea conditions to maintain heading.
- Yes, it features a 9-axis solid-state AHRS. And yes, that means you can mount it almost anywhere.
- Pair it with your compatible Garmin plotter and control the autopilot from anywhere on the boat.
- Want more? The optional GHC™ 50 autopilot instrument enhances the autopilot experience.
