THE KAP 100 AUTOPILOT SYSTEM
The KAP 100 is a single-axis, digital,
panel-mounted autopilot designed to incor-
porate substantial pilot workload relief ben-
efits into a highly affordable system for both
light single and twin engine aircraft.
The KAP
100 is capable not only of fly-
ing the aircraft in a wings level attitude, but
also of intercepting and tracking headings
and courses. It can fly all of the lateral
modes flown by the KAP 150 including
heading hold (HDG), NAV (NAV), approach
(APR) and back course
(BC).
Like the KAP 150, the KAP 100 comes
equipped with the King KG 107 directional
gyro as standard equipment, but an option-
al KCS 55A Compass System with a
KI 525A PNI may be chosen instead. (If
you are unfamiliar with the operation of a
Pictorial Navigation Indicator (PNI) you
should stop here and review the section of
the KCS 55A Compass System on page
The KG 107 is not a slaved system,
which’vneans the gyro must be adjusted
periodically to correct fqr precession.
The KG lOLdispla+s aircraft magnetic
heading, and radio rfavi&ttion course infor-
mation must be read from the associated
CDI to monitor the horizontal navigation
results of autopilot control movements.
