Functional testing of the Autopilot

Success!!!

After a few days of building a support structure for the motor drive / gearbox, installing the control unit, the pilot house control and the autopilot binnacle,  I was able to have it correct a simulated  course change.

the chain running to the left is the twin wheel interconnect
the chain running down and to the left controls the port side rudder
the smaller chain running down and to the right is the autopilot drive
