October 21, 201510 yr Hi, I notice on the product page that the Mindstar G1000 comes with a GFC700 autopilot unit. Could you please confirm whether this GFC700 has (realistically) working FLC mode included (ie.. that adjusts pitch to maintain speed, rather than using an autothrottle workaround) ? Thanks.

So to clarify, if I purchased the G1000, for use in the Eaglesoft DA-42, could I use the GFC700 in place of the KAP140? (earlier G1000 DA-42's used the KAP140, later models use the GFC700).
