Exploring the idea of adding an autopilot to my 26ft Single outboard hydraulic steered boat. I currently have an eS127 and Axiom MFD both running LH3 as well as a EV-1 sensor core.

From reading I would also need the following components to complete my autopilot:
ACU-150
Type-1 Hydraulic Drive Unit (M81120)
Evolution Cable Kit (R70160)
Now would I need a p70s (E70328) or p70Rs (E70329) autopilot control head?

Am I missing anything?
Thanks in advance.

Welcome to the Raymarine Forum MSjack,

For most powerboat / Evolution autopilot use cases, an autopilot control head would not be required if the system features MFD running LightHouse 3 software. However, should it desired to use the Evolution autopilot's Fishing Patterns feature, then it would be necessary to add an autopilot control head to the system. This said, it is considered to be a best installation practice to install an autopilot control head at each steering station to support the quickest interaction with the autopilot.

Thanks Chuck.. I appreciate it.

You're welcome.
