The autopilot I used had no sensor for speed. Does any? It would

proportional to your speed underway.

Haven't been paying attention to this thread, but my tiller AP will
"read" some NMEA speed sentence and the swing can be adjusted.

Do you know if reading the NMEA sentences replaces the fluxgate compass
or is used for longer range navigation (plotting a course with
waypoints). Thanks
