Garmin Reactor™ 40 Steer-by-wire standard corepack excluding GHC™ 20

Our most responsive autopilot system on the water

• 9-axis solid-state AHRS (Attitude Heading Reference System)
• Minimizes direction errors, course deviations, rudder movements and power consumption while providing a comfortable sailing experience
• Minimal commissioning and calibration

Reactor 40 for steer-by-wire provides robust autopilot capabilities for SeaStar Optimus systems, Yanmar Marine ZT 370 stern drive electronic power steering systems, and ZF 2800 Pod Drive systems.

With a complete package designed for powerboats and sailboats, Garmin is making advanced marine technology available to recreational boaters that was previously only available to commercial boats. The Reactor 40 autopilot series is simply the most responsive autopilot system we've ever offered.

Reactor 40 autopilots are highly versatile. Powerboat and sailboat features are available in all corepacks, including course hold, wind hold, tack/beam, incremental turns and more. Simply choose the autopilot that is compatible with your existing steering system.

9-axis solid-state AHRS

With the advanced 9-axis solid-state AHRS, you can mount the Reactor 40 virtually anywhere and in any orientation. In addition, this new system significantly reduces heading errors, course deviations, rudder movement and power consumption, providing a comfortable sailing experience for everyone on board.

Responds to sea conditions

This amazing autopilot actually responds to sea conditions to keep you on course. Even when the boat is pitching and rolling, you can trust the Reactor 40 autopilot to keep you on the desired course.

Minimal start-up adjustment and calibration

All autopilots require initial adjustment and calibration – without exception. We know you want to just get out on the water, so we made this process as quick and easy as possible. The Power of Simple.

Full integration with Garmin chartplotters

When paired with our compatible network chartplotter, you have complete control of the Reactor 40 from anywhere on your boat. In addition to staying on course in virtually any weather, the system can easily execute a variety of pre-programmed trolling and searching routines. And with a compatible Garmin network chartplotter and BlueChart® g2 Vision® charts (sold separately), you get additional features like Auto Guidance 1 , which automatically steers GPS courses.
