PRO PILOT JOYSTICK CONTROL SYSTEM

THE PROPILOT is an optional accessory that can be added to most existing and any new Glendinning control systems on boats with inboard propulsion and bow/stern thrusters.

The ProPilot system is suitable for installation on all inboard power boats with bow thrusters (or bow and stern thrusters) and sailboats with both bow and stern thrusters fitted.

An integrated thruster control keypad provides the capability to control the thrusters directly without the need for a separate thruster panel.

Manoeuvring and docking is made easy using the single joystick control and installation is easy since the ProPilot joystick can be added to existing helm stations control heads with a short CANbus cable and connected to the helm station thruster controls with plug-in connectors for any brand or type of bow/stern thruster.

The joystick function is customised (balanced) for each vessel using an easy-to-use PC program.

ProPilot is suitable for power boats with inboard propulsion (single or twin engine) and bow thruster (optional stern thruster), sail boats with bow and stern thrusters (compatible with retractable thrusters) and works with mechanical or electronically controlled engine throttles, transmissions and trolling valves. It is compatible with all thruster brands and types.
