Seam Control with Garmin Chartplotters
When paired with a networked Garmin chartplotter, the Reactor 40 system offers complete control from anywhere on the vessel, allowing you to easily navigate through of weather and wind conditions. The system can also execute-set trolling and search maneuvers with ease. Furthermore, when combined with a compatible Garmin chartplotter and optional BlueChart g2 Vision charts, users can advanced features such as Auto Guidance automatic navigation along GPS
Regain Confidence using Shadow Drive Technology
For hydraulic steering systems, the 40 autopilot corepack offers an optional, patented Shadow Drive feature. This innovative technology provides peace of mind, allowing you to maintain manual control needed, even when the autopilot is active. Should you need to adjust course, the Shadow Drive system instantlyengages the autopilot, allowing you to take the helm. Once a steady course is re-established, the autopilot-engages, resuming control.
Select from Three Class Drive Options
The Reactor 40 can be paired with three different linear drive models (available separately) that are compatible with a wide range of steering systems found on mid-sized to large boats (dependent on specific installation Each Garmin linear drive rudder feedback sensing for enhanced performance.
Drive units are available in three classes with varying displacement capabilities: Class A can handle up to 28,500 lbs, Compact Drive Unit in Class B can handle up to 48,400 lbs, and Class B Drive Unit can manage up to 79,000 lbs. These drive units can be connected to networked devices for operation. The Reactor 40 autopilot is controlled using up to 3 GHC helm control units, which communicate with the autopilot system through the NMEA 2000 network. This allows for easy sharing of autopilot heading data with other devices, enabling features like MARPA and chart overlay when linked to a Garmin chartplotter. Additionally, users have the option of using a handheld wireless remote control or controlling the system through a compatible quatix 3 or quatix 5 marine multisport smartwatch for maximum convenience.
Enhance your Reactor 40 autopilot's performance even more by incorporating the optional GRF 10 rudder feedback sensor for added peace of mind
