Do you have a question about the B&G H5000 Pilot and is the answer not in the manual?
Controls rudder application based on course error, affecting steering sensitivity.
Recommends Rudder Gain settings between 0.65-0.80 for IMOCA 60.
Sets pilot parameters and acts as failsafe speed input, influencing rudder response.
Suggests around 12 knots as the optimal Cruising Speed for IMOCA 60.
Allows choosing between automatic or manual boat speed inputs.
Under-estimating speed causes over-steer; over-estimating causes under-steer.
Corrects course errors by learning and adjusting rudder offset dynamically.
Recommends a 60-second setting for AutoTrim.
Learns steering variables for performance, saving values periodically.
Recommends enabling the Adapt feature for IMOCA 60.
Manages the speed of Tack and Gybe manoeuvres by adjusting rudder control.
Suggests 5-10 seconds as a starting point for Tack Time.
Allows selection between Apparent (AWA) and True (TWA) wind angles for steering.
Advises using AWA upwind and TWA downwind, re-engaging pilot for wind angle changes.
Balances course keeping performance against power consumption.
Recommends adjusting response based on conditions; Perf 3 is versatile.
Increases pilot response level to improve course keeping during challenging conditions.
Recommends 'Normal' setting for Auto Response on IMOCA 60 due to sensitivity.
Quickly returns the boat to course after off-course events like wave impacts.
Recommends the 'Medium' setting for Recovery Mode.
Applies pre-emptive rudder corrections based on heel angle changes before course error.
Suggests setting Response Rate to 1 for Heel Compensation.
Reacts to wind speed changes, applying a temporary bear-away.
Recommends Gust Limit = 5kt and Response Rate 3-5, using TWS Response too.
Bears away to a lower target angle when True Wind Speed (TWS) increases.
Recommends enabling TWS Response with a Response Rate between 3 and 5.
Adjusts Gust bear away effect variation between reaching and downwind angles.
Recommends leaving TWA Response setting at or near the default of 1.5.
Details menu options for various steering and response functions.
Outlines parameters for steering, limits, and speed source selection.
Covers installation parameters, dockside, and sea trial configurations.
Encompasses display, alarm, language, and local setup options.
Visual representation of how the pilot selects boat speed from various inputs.
Highlights the manual speed input option within the selection sequence.
