Running out to do some fishing so I don't have time for a long response. We had the same issue with the ST4000. We upgraded to the ACU-200 but still ran the wheel pilot. This gives us the ability to upgrade to a below deck in the future if needed.
Don't connect a below deck unit to the quadrant. Add a tiller arm. This can be difficult because you have to drill through the rudder post.
But first try adding a rudder position sensor. These can make all the difference.
Good luck
