Here is what you need to do
I dont have autopilot and it is something I would lke to add.................I would need a chain drive to the wheel...............I would like to purchase used but I have not been able to find a complete used system...............If I was to go with new...........what would you purchase....keep in mind that I am bit cheap...(430 Hunter)
thanks
I believe the 430 was designed like the 40.5 insofar that it was meant to have a rotary drive in the cockpit wine cooler locker that extends from the wheel shaft with an extra gear & chain.
If this is the case, do not consider a linear drive. Only go with the rotary.
To confirm this, contact Hunter, and get the specs for the original autopilot install.
Next,
Go with either the Raymarine S3g or X30x
Do not consider anything else. You will be wasting money, and it will never work.
I'm at Rcyc, and I'm glad to help you with advice if you need
