All captains require a co-pilot. The Reactor 40 autopilot is specifically made for both powerboats and sailboats, providing the assistance needed to navigate the waters smoothly and enjoy a stress-free experience in beautiful destinations.
The versatile Reactor 40 corepack can be paired with a range of steering systems, offering flexible mechanical, retrofit, and solenoid options.
This device comes equipped with a 9-axis AHRS that utilizes solid-state technology, allowing for versatile mounting options and unrestricted placement.
Regardless of whether you're angling or tilting, this autopilot is designed to respond to changes in the sea's dynamics to ensure you maintain a steady course.
Pair your Garmin chartplotter with your autopilot system, and enjoy seamless control from any location on your vessel.
Looking to elevate your autopilot experience? Consider the GHC™ 50 autopilot instrument, a valuable addition to your system.
This corepack is suitable for use with both direct and cable-actuated steering systems, providing assistance for maintaining a specific heading, wind direction, executing step turns, and switching between tack and jibe modes.
The Reactor 40 can be installed in various positions thanks to its advanced solid-state 9-axis AHRS technology. This feature helps to lower power usage, decrease heading inaccuracies, and offers other benefits.
Feel secure navigating through rough waters, as this autopilot adjusts to changing water conditions, ensuring a stable course.
Basic Calibration - Every autopilot needs to be set up 40 simplifies this fast and straightforward.
Experience greater flexibility when navigating your vessel. This corepack offers the option to install Shadow Drive technology, which disables the autopilot function when the wheel is turned, giving you more control and freedom to navigate tight spaces with ease.
You can pick from three different class drives for your steering system, including class A, compact class B, and class B drive units (sold separately). Every Garmin linear drive features integrated rudder feedback sensing as a standard feature.
Enjoy the freedom to control your boat's autopilot from any location on board using your Garmin devices, such as the Reactor autopilot remote, select quatix® marine smartwatches, and other compatible devices (requires a Garmin chartplotter or GHC 50 autopilot instrument).
Link all components of your vessel together. Consider the GHC 50, which pairs the Reactor 40 corepack with the GHC 50 autopilot instrument. This combination provides a specialized, touch-operated autopilot interface for your control station. Additionally, the GHC 50 enables data and configuration sharing with Garmin MFDs and other connected Garmin gadgets.
The Reactor 40 corepacks provide powerboat and sailing capabilities when linked to your Garmin chartplotter. These include features like heading hold, step turns, wind hold, and tack/jibe when used with a wind sensor (available for purchase separately). By connecting these corepacks, you can access advantages like follow route and Auto Guidance+™ features.
Enhance your autopilot's capabilities by adding the optional GRF™ 10 sensor, which provides additional reassurance and improved performance. This upgrade is compatible with the GHC 50 autopilot instrument or a Garmin chartplotter.
