xCruze 110 Autopilot for Experimental Aircraft
The xCruze 110 is one of the best stand-alone autopilots that we have ever created. The xCruze 110 takes our already simple and intuitive user interfaces and takes it a step further by adding a new industry standard joystick, allowing a clean look without becoming too convoluted.
The xCruze 110 autopilot was created with both, the VFR and IFR pilot in mind. The new emergency level mode was designed primarily for the VFR pilot that inadvertently finds himself in IMC. The operation of the altitude select and altitude preselect modes were designed to be extremely useable and useful in IFR flight, even to the extent that an altitude select can be entered and the vertical speed is easily adjusted to any desired value. This feature is extremely useful when initiating approaches or during step down approaches.
The main display of the xCruze 110 autopilot contains a PFD flight instrument. This consists of an attitude indicator, airspeed indicator, altimeter, VSI, slip/skid indicator, bank angle indicator, turn rate indicator, and a track slaved DG.
