Right now, I think the Garmin G1000 is going to be better supported than
the system in the Cirrus. And just what makes you think that ? I think you are confused, or maybe you work for Garmin's marketing department. I don't work for Garmin. My opinion is based on the adoption rate of the G1000 and my own experiences flying the SR-22 and aircraft with the G1000. The KAP-140 is an excellent 3-axis autopilot. Sure it is, if you don't like GPS roll steering, and you enjoy retesting your static system every time you pull it out for repair or adjustment. The KAP-140 is a two axis autopilot and the variant that comes in the 182 is two axis with altitude preselect, not 3 axis. At least on the Cirrus the autopilot's altitude preselect is on the PFD. I mis-spoke, you are of course correct that the KAP-140 is a 2-axis system. Personally, I haven't had any issues with regard to the static system in my plane. Can you go into futher detail? |
