Hello Sean, hello all,
I ordered Pypilot boards a few days ago and they are now on the way.
I have now to find the right actuator for my need (My boat is a 40”, 10Tons with a tiller.) and we have discussions about this on the french sailing forum hisse-et-oh.com.
We had a look on chinese 30$ actuators, Pelagic-like HB actuator, and we also found a taiwanese brand, Hurd, which seems to provide an interesting product named ELA45 (rated IP68).
These references could fit with autopilot needs
ELA45-300-070-12 (700N, 30mm/s loaded, 84mm/s unloaded, stroke 300mm)
ELA45-300-210-12 (2100N,stroke 300mm, 9mm/s loaded, 24mm/s unloaded, stroke 300mm)
Do you have any advice or feedback on such an actuator?
We are waiting for a quotation from the supplier and will give you some feedback
Thank you and again congratulations for your job on pypilot!
