Enhanced safety and
performance
The M2 is equipped with a fully digital, dual-channel autopilot system (AP) equipped with many features for added safety, redundancy, and reliability. Integrating data from the avionics system, the AP is built to inspire confidence while ensuring optimum smoothness and comfort.
The system is powered by the Garmin GFC 700 scalable architecture and uses prestored airspeed-limit data along with autopilot gains that are scheduled to optimize performance to offer excellent stability and control. The AP maximizes aircraft performance with precise lateral and vertical navigation guidance for all phases of flight. It can maintain attitude, altitude, airspeed, vertical speed, and heading, in addition to flying VNAV descent profiles, automated Takeoff/Go-Around procedures, and more.
The M2’s AP system is simple and straightforward to operate yet sophisticated and state-of-the-art, which makes flying the M2 easier, safer, more consistent, and more enjoyable.
