Raymarine Evolution EV-200 Sailing Vessel Linear Autopilot Pack with P70S - T70158 Item # 878866
Description
The Raymarine Evolution EV-200 Sailing Vessel Linear Autopilot Pack with P70S, combines Raymarine's autopilot expertise, FLIR Systems' R&D, and advanced aerospace guidance technology to create Evolution Ai control algorithms that deliver a new level of accurate autopilot control.
General Features:
- Consists of a Type 1 mechanical linear drive that attatches to the rudder stock via an independant tiller arm below deck
- Thanks to the intelligent EV sensor core, autopilot automatically evolves and adapts to your vessel's steering characteristics without any user adjustments
- A separate control unit is installed where it is easy to see and reach
- Course computer and fluxgate compass are mounted separately for optimum performance
- Suitable for mechanically steered boats up to 24,000 lbs displacement
EV-1 Sensor Core Features:
- Combines advanced solid-state sensors with the Evolution autopilot processor in a single easy-to-install housing
- Mounted above or below decks, rugged enclosure is fully sealed and built to IPX6 and IPX7 waterproofing / submersion standards
- 9-Axis sensor monitors vessel motion in (3) dimensions
- Precision monitoring of heading, pitch, roll, and yaw allows the autopilot to evolve instantly as sea conditions and vessel dynamics change
- Simple SeaTalk ng connectivity to control head and ACU
- Solid state sensor technology delivers dynamic accuracy to within 2° in all conditions
- Auto-compensation for onboard magnetic fields and reliable heading accuracy in northern and southern extremes
- Fast and reliable heading data for MARPA, radar overlay and heading modes on Raymarine multifunction displays
P70S Control Head Features:
- Push-button controls designed for sailboats
- New LightHouse user interface is easy to learn and use

Questions
What is the difference between the P70S - T70158 and P70S - T70157?
These two packs have several different components (specifically different drive units and different control heads), as the T70158 is designed for sailing vessels and the T70157 is designed to work with power vessels.

There is a Ray Marine Brochure link at the bottom of the EV200 Sail Component list. Page 4 of that brochure indicates the RFU comes as standard. Is that the case?
I purchased the EV-200 Linear T70158 unit and it did come with the Rudder Transducer Unit (RFU). Same as Raymarine Replacement Rotary Rudder Reference Transducer - M81105. Hope this helps
