Garmin Hydraulic Autopilot Reactor 40

Our autopilot system with greater responsiveness in the water

• 9-axis solid-state course and position reference system (AHRS)
• It reduces course errors, route deviation, rudder movement and energy consumption, while offering a comfortable trip
• Simple commissioning and calibration
• The patented Shadow Drive™ technology allows you to stay in control even when the autopilot is activated

Garmin provides advanced nautical technology for users in the field of navigation previously available only for commercial boats in a complete package designed for sailing and motor boats. The Reactor 40 series of autopilots provides the most responsive autopilot system we have offered so far.

Reactor 40 automatic pilots are very versatile. In the corepack, functions are offered for sailing and motor navigation, including course control, wind control, turn/trash, step turns and many more. You just have to select the autopilot compatible with your boat's steering system.

The Reactor 40 hydraulic autopilot corepack is perfect for any type of motor boats with hydraulic steering systems with inboard, outboard, mixed and diesel engine, or sailboats with hydraulic steering system. This robust design unit offers users of motor boats a simple autopilot system of high reliability during navigation. Thanks to its 9-axis solid-state AHRS system, Reactor 40 can be installed in virtually any place and orientation, and has a very simple operation. Our patented Shadow Drive technology offers navigators the security of knowing that they have control even when they use the autopilot.

9-axis solid-state AHRS technology

The advanced 9-axis solid-state AHRS system allows you to install the Reactor 40 unit in virtually anywhere and orientation. In addition, this new system significantly reduces course errors, route deviation, rudder movement and energy consumption, while offering a comfortable trip for all passengers.

Ability to react to sea conditions

In fact, this excellent autopilot responds to the state of the sea to stay the course. Even when pitching and swinging movements occur, the Reactor 40 autopilot guarantees that you maintain the desired course.

Simple commissioning and calibration

All autopilots, without exception, require a commissioning and calibration process. We know that what you want is to get into the water, that's why we have streamlined and simplified this process as much as possible. That's what the concept "The Power of Simple" consists of.

Full integration with Garmin plotters

When combined with a compatible Garmin plotter connected to the network, you can have full control over the Reactor 40 unit from anywhere on the boat. The system is capable of maintaining the course in practically all types of weather and wind conditions, as well as carrying out a series of pre-programmed procedures for fishing for fishing and searching in a fluid way. In addition, with a network-connected compatible Garmin plotter and the optional BlueChart g3 Vision charts (sold separately), you will get industry-leading coverage, clarity and level of detail, with updated coastal charts that include integrated content from Garmin and Navionics®.

Stay in control with Shadow Drive technology

The Reactor 40 autopilot incorporates the patented Shadow Drive technology. This gives you the security of knowing that you will maintain control even with the autopilot activated. The Shadow Drive system automatically deactivates the autopilot if the rudder is turned, giving you the freedom to maneuver the ship. The autopilot is automatically reactivated when a fixed course is maintained.
