I don't know about the ST5000 series, but the ST6001 is only remote
control for the course computer (S1 or S1G). For example the compass
gyro hook up is directly to the computer, not to the ST6001.


Thanks!

That is what I wanted to know...

Bob,

What you might have been thinking of was the Raymarine Sailpilot. This
device looked like the ST6000 control head but had all the electronics
in it. It was discontinued about 18 months or more ago. They still make
the ST4000 tiller pilots that way but they have very limited drive
capability.

We just installed an ST4000 tiller pilot into a new Benneteau 31.
