Hi, it can also be used in Sailboats? What’s the difference between that model and the other tiller pilot sold without the drive unit?

This autopilot is intended for sailboats with tiller steering. This EV100 offers the possibility to mount the sensitive compass in a place where the compass can work at its best. The autopilots of the ST1000+/2000+ series contain everything (incl. compass) in one housing, which means that the mounting position is fixed. In addition to the possibility of decentralised mounting, the compass/gyro sensor included in the EV100 package is also much more accurate as it recognises all the ship's axes of motion and incorporates them into its calculations. A compass-only autopilot does not have this possibility.
