A couple of notes on requirement
NavII controller needs be on firmware 13.00 or higher. I'm not sure the adapter cable was to go between the navII and the ezpilot harness was ever sold in North America. The guide for APMD show the cable and a part number but it doesn't seem to be available. Generally you can get decent performance out of the system even if you don't calibrate with Autopilot toolbox.

Is this the setup that will allow you to go to zero speed and even into reverse? If so, that would be spectacular when planting.
Yes, it functions the same as autopilot. You can completely stop or reverse and the system will stay active. It also comes back onto a guidance line much faster after a turn the same way an autopilot system with a steering valve does.
