Century III Autopilot ./

As of January 1, 2001 the Century III
Autopilot System is no longer in production.

The Century III is a two axis roll/heading/pitch autopilot consisting of the lighted directional and attitude gyros, control console, computer/amplifier and servos. Standard features include separate roll and pitch engagement, altitude hold, roll and pitch command, and automatic and manual electronic pitch trim. The optional radio navigational coupler is identical to the Century IIB's coupler.

The Century III is the preferred altitude hold autopilot for dealer- installed, retrofit installations in a wide range of single and
multi-engine aircraft. Its fingertip control of roll command of constant bank angles up to 30º, smooth pitch command
for exact climb and descent attitudes, and outstanding altitude hold performance has given the Century III an enviable reputation for excellence. Unlike many competitive systems, the custom-manufactured cable harness is included to reduce installation time and expense.

Options: Either square or round gyros may be chosen to accommodate your cockpit panel. The Century NSD slaved or non-slaved HSI system or other compatible HSIs may be substituted for the directional gyro. The optional glideslope coupler is armed and locked when the autopilot is programmed for an approach and the radio is set up to the localizer.
