Futaba
GY401 is a High Performance, Compact and Light Weight (AVCS)
Angular Vector Control System gyro developed for model helicopters.
Because the sensor and control circuit are integrated, it is simple to
install.
Features:
- AVCS
System: Since the
rudder trim changes (caused by wind and other meteorological changes);
the front, rear, and other helicopter attitudes change and are
automatically canceled; tail (rudder) operation is easy, making it
perfect for 3D flight.
- SMM
Gyro Sensor: Use of this newly developed technology virtually
eliminates rudder trim changes during flight (see Comments).
- Digital
Servo Compatible (DS Mode): DS mode makes it compatible with Futaba
digital servos. This maximizes the high-speed response performance of
the digital servo.
- Remote
Gain Function and Mode Switching
Function Remote: Gain function allows sensitivity switching from the
transmitter and mode switching function allows AVCS/normal gyro mode
switching. Integrated, compact and lightweight design made possible by
high density mounting technology.
- Conductive
Resin Case: This case improves EMC (Electrostatic and electromagnetic
interference) resistance.

Comments:
Can
be used in helicopters and airplanes (Due to 0-100% Gain Adjust). The
new SMM (Silicone Micro Machine) technology is the integration of
mechanical elements, sensors, actuators and electronics all brought
together on a common substrate chip. This hobby industry first, results
in a gyro sensor with anunprecedented level of functionality,
reliability, and sophistication. This will not work with the JR digital
servos. These have a different pulse.
