Revolutionizing RC Helicopter Control: The Futaba GY401 Gyro

In the world of RC helicopters, achieving perfect control is an art form that requires precision and advanced technology. Enter the Futaba GY401 Gyro, a high-performance, compact device that has become a favorite among enthusiasts for its cutting-edge features and reliability. Designed specifically for model helicopters, this gyro incorporates the Angular Vector Control System (AVCS) and SMM Technology, setting a new standard in the hobby industry.

Unmatched Stability with AVCS

The GY401 gyro employs the AVCS, also known as the heading hold gyro, which automatically adjusts for changes in rudder trim caused by wind or other environmental factors. This technology ensures that your helicopter maintains stability without constant manual corrections, making it ideal for 3D flight enthusiasts who demand perfection in tail (rudder) control.

SMM Technology: The Heart of Precision

At the core of the GY401 is the SMM Gyro Sensor, a pioneering technology that integrates mechanical elements, sensors, actuators, and electronics on a single substrate chip. This innovation minimizes rudder trim changes during flight, providing an unprecedented level of functionality and sophistication. The result is a gyro sensor that offers exceptional reliability and precision, crucial for complex aerial maneuvers.

Seamless Integration and Compatibility

The GY401's design is both compact and lightweight, thanks to high-density mounting technology. It includes a conductive resin case to enhance resistance against electrostatic and electromagnetic interference. Additionally, the gyro supports Futaba digital servos through its DS Mode, maximizing high-speed response performance. The remote gain and mode switching functions allow pilots to adjust sensitivity and switch between AVCS and normal gyro mode directly from their transmitter.
