PyPilot Cetec Benmar

I have two options for controller right now. up to 7 amps and up to 20 amps.  I am also working on new designs to lower price and improve the controller.

Did anybody ever get the Cetec Benmar drive to work with pypilot?

I also have a Autohelm wind vane and auxiliary rudder w/trim tab.  Ideally I would like to setup an old tiller-pilot with this rather than the Cetec/Benmar for downwind and it would use wayyyy less power.  I have an old authelm tillerpilot to work with.  Has this been done yet?
