Transform Your Autopilot

The AV-APA PMA (Analog Port Adapter) is a groundbreaking accessory designed for aircraft with legacy autopilots, enabling a seamless upgrade to the latest digital avionics. This device allows for the replacement of older, vacuum-driven directional gyros with the sophisticated, lightweight digital AV-30. The AV-APA PMA not only enhances navigation capabilities through advanced GPS features but also simplifies the cockpit by potentially removing outdated vacuum systems.
