The KFC300 Flight Director/Autopilot is a complete 3-axis integrated system with
large, 4-inch electric (or 3-inch vacuum/electric) Flight Command and Horizontal
Situation Indicators. An all solid-state Flight Computer provides computed Flight
Director commands along with complete 3-axis Autopilot control. The system
provides all standard operating modes plus altitude preselect capability. In addi-
tion to the KFC250´s modes, the KFC300 also provides two modes to hold a cer-
tain airspeed via pitch correction.
This chapter describes only the differences to the KFC250 Autopilot & Flight Di-
rector, mentioned previously. For complete Autopilot reference, refer to Chapter
AUTOMATED FLIGHT (page 50).
