I added the rudder sensor to the autopilot later. This makes the autopilot even more accurate. It is easy to connect. However, a diagram would be appreciated so that it is clear which color wires go to the connector.

Questions & Answers
Can I reuse a Raymarine rudder feedback unit with your autopilot system?

Asked by F**************
Yes. The Raymarine rudder feedback unit can be used with the system.

Is the rudder reference unit compatible with a Cetrek 801 rudder position sensor?
01 Mar 2026
Asked by Á***************
Probably yes, if it behaves like a standard variable resistor. Check whether it has 3 or 4 wires. If a multimeter shows a resistance across the wires that varies with rotation, then the autopilot can use it.

Is a rudder reference unit essential, or can the autopilot work without a separate rudder angle sensor?
12 Feb 2026
Asked by M************
A separate rudder angle sensor is not always required. The tiller drive already has an integrated position sensor, so there is no need for a separate one in that setup. In general, rudder feedback improves steering performance and reduces power consumption.
