I have a KAP150 Autopilot which says it's supported, with the exception of FD. What exactly does Gyro Attitude support with GI275 mean? 1. Attitude information for when a GS is present? For a full coupled approach? 2. Altitude pre-select? 3. Vertical speed control?

When using the Aspen and EA100 to connect to the KAP 150 are you able to use the Aspen for altitude pre-select and will it fly a fully coupled approach? Do you still need the KAS 297B control to get altitude preselect? I currently don't have the KAS device but want to try and keep my KAP 150 since it's 3-axis autopilot it seems crazy to replace. Originally, I was trying to go down the path of G3x Touch which says it is compatible, but looking deeper it appears to only handle GPSS and not altitude/pitch. I guess one option might be to add the KAS 297B and just step down on approach manually at each fix while using the G3x for lateral guidance. But if Aspen can handle both it might we worth going that route. . . What do you guys think?
