Works clean and flawless. However, I use "only" the normal autopilot function, so the device is not yet connected to the navigation instruments.

Damaged packaging

The double packaging saved the product, which had clearly already been opened and repackaged. UPS's logistics were subpar.

Aside from that, it's a very good pilot, though perhaps we'd prefer it to be 100% waterproof.

In the middle of our sailing vacation, our Autohelm 1000 tiller pilot stopped working. When I called SVB, they recommended the successor product, the Raymairne 1000 plus. When I asked if I could replace the 11 without any additional tinkering, they answered yes. So I ordered the product, and it was delivered to the harbor within less than 24 hours. Unfortunately, there was still some tinkering involved. The plug wasn't compatible with the old tiller pilot. Since the workshop facilities on board are rather limited, the problem was solved with Wago terminals and lots of insulating tape.

First tiller pilot

Easy to fit (measurements are critical)
Lost control in flukey gusts using fully reefed mainsail,
Lake sailing, think I just pushed too hard? Otherwise a great help to a solo sailor.

Tiller Pilot for serious long distances

I have installed a Tiller pilot in the past on a telstar Trimaran and have just installed one on a corsair 24 Trimaran. Installation was simple when you learn to measure and extend it fully and retract it fully then set it to the middle extension before drilling holes to set it up. This was not mentioned in the operation Instructions! I have not had the opportunity to test it yet but am sure that it will be a great help on long passages just as in the past.

Funciona como o previsto.
As conexões com o NMEA 183 são difíceis é necessário cortar o cabo e ligar á tomada do piloto automático ST 1000 juntamente com o NMEA do GPS, gerando muitas ligações numa ficha pequena

Raymarine radio remote control S1000

So, the remote control is an additional gain in convenience, especially when sailing one-handed. You don't always have to do gymnastics backwards when you are at the bow and have to correct your course. The assembly is actually quite simple. When you have found out what the connection assignment is on the tiller pilot. This is not evident in the instructions. You have to note that when the remote control has gone into standby, it has to reconnect again and again, that always takes a while, that is an unfortunate solution. Otherwise great
