As far as I know still Eikert engineering. Brett Mays is the guy that designed but he has left. Give them a call and see if they still have them or if Brett took that side of the biz with him.

Bob,
The system is $4200 on the counter. Don't know what installation would be as I did my own.

Called Eikert's today and they are still open with skeleton crew in receivership. They hope to pull out of it. She is going to have Brett call me so will pass on his phone number when I get it.

Guys,
The only external steering that will fit the Blackhawk is the Mayfair Space Saver. I talked to all the other guys and the transom end of their shortest rams sits right in the middle of the K-planes. If you don't care about getting the inboard end of the ram in line with the gimbal you can get the Warlock system but don't try and raise the drive with the engine running!
