I believe the Piper and century autopilots use the AI. The fact that the

STEC uses
the turn coordinator was a large factor in selecting that A/P (Stec-20)

for my
airplane.


Does anyone know the ratio of failures of electrically driven instruments
compared to vacuum driven?

I don't know what the STEC-20 has for fault protection, but the 2100 does
have cross-checks to the other instruments and internal checks.
