I am building an RV-9 and have already installed the Trutrak servos with harness but have not purchased any thing else.
I plan to use Dynon 100 EIFS and EMS and want to use their AP.
Will Dynon work with Trutrak servos?
Can I mount Dynon servos on Trutrak brackets?
Can I use the existing harness?

Also, will Dynon AP work with Avmap IV GPS?

Will Dynon work with Trutrak servos?
No. Our servos use a very different communication protocol and control/feedback methodology.

Can I mount Dynon servos on Trutrak brackets?
Yes. Our servos are mechanically identical in terms of mounting.

Can I use the existing harness?
Yes. Our servos use 5 wires instead of 8, so you'll be able to use a subset of the wires in their harness.

Also, will Dynon AP work with Avmap IV GPS?
Yes. You may need to update firmware in your Avmap. See http://wiki.dynonavionics.com/GPS_Serial_Compatibility_and_Configuration_Settings and the "Yes" link next to the Avmap for a success report.

Thank you for the quick reply.
I assume the AP and the EIFS will work with the Avmap. I don't see any reference to the AP in the information you supplied.

Yes, once you have a GPS successfully talking to your EFIS, the AP will use that as a GPS source.
