No calibration required!

Engineered for simplicity, Evolution autopilots eliminate the need for complicated set up and calibration. Once Evolution is installed, getting started is as easy as switching the autopilot on.

Thanks to the intelligent EV sensor core, the autopilot automatically evolves and adapts to your vessel’s steering characteristics without any user adjustments.

Evolution AI™

The culmination of Raymarine’s 30 years of autopilot expertise, FLIR Systems research and development, and advanced aerospace guidance technology, Evolution AI™ control algorithms deliver a new level of accurate autopilot control.

This innovative breakthrough in autopilot intelligence enables Evolution autopilots to perceive their environment and then instantly calculate and evolve steering commands to maximise performance. The result is precise and confident course keeping, regardless of vessel speed or sea conditions.

The EV Sensor Core

At the centre of every Evolution system is the intelligent EV sensor core, a 9-axis sensor that monitors vessel motion in all three dimensions. The innovative EV sensor core combines advanced solid-state sensors with the Evolution autopilot processor into a single easy-to-install housing.

Mount the EV sensor core above or below decks, the rugged enclosure is fully sealed and built to IPX6 and IPX7 waterproofing and submersion standards.

EV Sensor Core Benefits

Precision monitoring of heading, pitch, roll, and yaw allowing the autopilot to evolve instantly as sea conditions and vessel dynamics change.
Flexible installation options. Mount above or below deck.
Simple SeaTalk^ng connectivity to the control head and ACU.
Solid state sensor technology delivers dynamic accuracy to within 2 degrees in all conditions.
Auto-compensation for on board magnetic fields and reliable heading accuracy in the northern and southern extremes.
Fast and reliable heading data for MARPA, radar overlay, and heading modes on Raymarine multifunction displays.

Autopilot Control Unit (ACU)

The rugged ACU (Actuator Control Unit) delivers reliable autopilot drive power and also provides power to the SeaTalk^ng bus. Choose the ACU that fits your steering system type:

Supported Drives
ACU-200	Type 1 Raymarine hydraulic, linear and rotary mechanical drives
ACU-300	For solenoid controlled steering systems and Raymarine constant running hydraulic pumps
ACU-400	Type 2 and 3 Raymarine hydraulic, linear, and rotary mechanical drives

EV-1 Systems with Raymarine Drives

The EV-1 is designed for Evolution mechanical and hydraulic autopilot systems. SeaTalkng networking enables a single cable connection for power and data to the Evolution ACU (actuator control unit) and extended SeaTalkng and NMEA2000 networks.

Raymarine P70RS Autopilot Control Head (With rotary control)

The new control heads are available in two control styles. The Raymarine p70s autopilot control head is a push-button operation controller designed primarily for sailboats, while the Raymarine p70Rs autopilot control head, with its combination of push-buttons and rotary control dial, is aimed at powered craft.

Key features:

3.5” super bright oversized LCD for maximum visibility
All weather, low power, optically bonded display technology delivers brighter colours, sharper contrast, and a wide viewing angle
Button or rotary control options for sail and power applications
Supported autopilot modes: Auto; Standby; Pattern; Track; Wind Vane; Power Steer and Jog Steer
Display the pilot information in different formats with automatic 3-step setup for leisure, cruising and performance
Simple system and group dimming / illumination
Easy to use Lighthouse user interface with sculpted rubber keypad for precise operation in all conditions
SeaTalk^ng networking for seamless connectivity to Raymarine systems and NMEA2000* networks
New glass bridge industrial design compliments Raymarine eS and gS Series multifunction displays
Supplied with both black (eS Series style) & (e Series style) gunmetal bezels and protective suncover

Superior Viewing

Advanced LED backlighting offers low power consumption and delivers vibrant colour and contrast. Wide horizontal and vertical viewing angles ensure the display can be seen clearly from acute positions.

Raymarine Evolution Autopilot c/w p70Rs Control Head. ACU-200 & Type 1 Hydraulic Pump Frequenty Asked Questions:

Q. Which Raymarine Evolution Autopilot pack is right for my boat?

A. Choosing the correct pack depends on your vessel type and displacement: EV-100: Ideal for tiller, wheel, and small hydraulic systems (up to 7,500 kg), EV-150 / EV-200 / EV-300 / EV-400: Suited for larger yachts and powerboats with hydraulic or mechanical steering.

Q. Is installation of Raymarine Evolution Autopilots difficult?

A. Installation is straightforward for most DIY-savvy boat owners. Each pack includes: EV Sensor Core, ACU, Control Head, Cabling Kit. Mounting the EV Sensor Core above or below deck is simple, and SeaTalkng/NMEA 2000 connectivity ensures plug-and-play integration. For complex setups, professional installation is recommended.

Q. Do Raymarine Evolution Autopilots require calibration?

A. Minimal calibration is needed. The system auto-learns your vessel's handling characteristics during initial use. You can fine-tune rudder response, hard-over time, and vessel type via the control head or Raymarine MFD.

Q. Can I integrate Raymarine Evolution Autopilot with my chartplotter or MFD?

A. Yes. Evolution Autopilots are fully compatible with Raymarine Axiom, Element, and older MFDs via SeaTalkng or NMEA 2000. This allows route tracking, wind-based steering, and control via touchscreen.

Q. How does the EV Sensor Core improve steering accuracy?

A. The EV Sensor Core uses solid-state gyros and accelerometers to monitor vessel motion in 3D. It instantly adapts to sea state, speed, and helm input, delivering smoother course keeping than traditional fluxgate compasses.

Q. Is the Raymarine Evolution Autopilot suitable for UK coastal and offshore cruising?

A. Absolutely. Evolution Autopilots are engineered for UK waters - from Solent sailing to North Sea crossings. They maintain tight heading control in tidal streams, cross swells, and gusty conditions, making them ideal for solo or long-distance cruising.

Q. What power requirements does the Evolution Autopilot have?

A. Most Evolution systems run on 12V DC. Power draw varies by drive unit: EV-100: ~7A max, Larger ACUs may require up to 15A. Ensure your battery bank and cabling meet the system's amperage needs, especially in rough weather.

Q. What are common troubleshooting tips for Raymarine Evolution Autopilots?

A. If your autopilot isn't performing optimally: Check software updates via Raymarine MFD, Recalibrate compass if heading is erratic, Verify speed input (SOG preferred), Adjust hard-over time for better rudder control. For persistent issues, consult Raymarine's troubleshooting guide or contact our support team.

Q. Does Raymarine offer warranty and UK-based support for Evolution Autopilots?

A. Yes. Raymarine provides a 2-year standard warranty, extendable to 3 years upon product registration. UK-based support is available via authorised dealers and service centres. All units sold through CactusNav are covered under Raymarine's manufacturer warranty.
