It's a legit 2-axis autopilot, not just a SAS.
No, it is stability ie rate damping in the VFR one with some very limited upper modes (which don't include yaw) in pitch and roll.

It's a SAS plus but not a real autopilot.

Don't get me wrong - it will add a huge amount to the handling qualities of a light single but at cost $100K according to the reports - what proportion is that of the aircraft cost?
