065-0065-01 is the exact BendixKing Part Number for this KAS 297B altitude and vertical-speed selector. The panel-mounted unit gives the crew a dedicated interface for entering a target altitude, selecting a vertical speed where the approved system supports it, arming altitude capture and monitoring the related annunciations. The -01 suffix must be retained during ordering.
The KAS 297B is not a stand-alone altimeter or complete autopilot. It works with the approved flight-control installation and depends on compatible air-data, altitude-sensing, annunciation and autopilot equipment. Its display presents selected values rather than replacing the aircraft primary altitude or vertical-speed instruments. The aircraft flight manual supplement remains controlling.
The official BendixKing pilot guide describes altitude selection with the inner knob in the altitude position. The outer concentric control changes the selected altitude in 1,000 ft increments and the inner control changes it in 100 ft increments. The documented selection range extends up to 35,000 ft. Pressing ARM prepares the compatible autopilot to capture the chosen altitude.
As the aircraft approaches the selected level, the KAS 297B computes the appropriate round-out point using vertical-speed information. The display changes from ARM to CAPT when capture begins, and the compatible system transitions to altitude hold at the selected altitude. This sequence depends on proper sensor inputs and the configuration described in the aircraft supplement.
Pulling the inner knob places the selector in vertical-speed entry mode. The pilot can preselect a climb or descent rate and engage vertical-speed hold with the ENG control where the installation permits. The selected rate is shown on the display, while up or down indication distinguishes climb from descent. The actual aircraft response is controlled by the connected autopilot, not by this panel alone.
The guide also notes that a mechanical vertical-speed indicator can differ from the selected value because of instrument accuracy and lag. This is an operational consideration rather than a product fault by itself. Troubleshooting must evaluate air-data input, autopilot response, display behavior and aircraft performance using approved procedures.
The KAS 297B provides altitude alerting independently of whether the autopilot is engaged. Official operating information describes an ALERT indication and a two-second aural tone at 1,000 ft from the selected altitude. The alert remains until the aircraft is within the configured inner band, normally 300 ft or 500 ft depending on installation approval, and warns again if the aircraft departs the selected altitude.
The authentic photographs show ENG and ARM buttons, the central display, vertical VS and ALT labels, the SET control and PULL VS function. The main view shows the complete long housing after removal of the partner label, while the gallery view preserves the original face for condition reference. No values have been invented on the inactive display. Display brightness, annunciation timing and alert-audio routing depend on the aircraft installation, so these functions should be checked with the applicable flight manual supplement and approved test procedure.
This 065-0065-01 KAS 297B is offered in Serviceable condition from partner stock with a six-month warranty. The price follows the agreed rule and applies the required multiplier to the exact same-condition public comparison. The serial number, release documentation and bench status for the unit supplied are confirmed at quotation and dispatch.
For an inquiry, state Part Number 065-0065-01, model KAS 297B, aircraft type, autopilot installation, quantity and paperwork requirement. Rack, connector, harness, aural alert hardware and associated flight-control units are included only when expressly listed. Related avionics are available in the Garmin / BendixKing / Honeywell / Collins category, but compatibility requires approved technical confirmation.
