Since each Autopilot Tiller Arm is custom machined for a tight fit to your rudderpost, please email our or give us a call at (508) 995-9711 to order. Information on Bronze and Aluminum Autopilot Tiller Arms can be found below.IMPORTANT - Edson highly recommends installing an autopilot independent of the primary steering system. This provides for a redundant/backup system in the event of steering gear or cable failure—in effect an “Electronic Emergency Tiller”.

Specifically designed for use with linear drive autopilot systems. Keeps Autopilot independent of Steering System. Makes Autopilot an “Electronic Emergency Tiller”.
- The proper way to attach to the rudder shaft is a tiller arm – typically about a 10” long piece of cast bronze that is clamped around the rudder shaft, above or below the radial drive or quadrant. Edson and PYI’s Jefa manufacture them, as well as Buck-Algonquin.
- Edson has me on a wild goose chase for the precise diameter of the rudder post for the bronze tiller arm. Challenge is that I cannot find a caliper wide enough to go around the post.
