Hobby Eagle A3 Pro Standard Edition 6-Axis Airplane Gyro - HEA3PRO
The new A3 Pro is a high-performance and functional 6-axis gyro and
stabilizer designed for R/C airplanes. This gyro can be used with nearly
any size and type of R/C airplanes and its primary function is to make
flying as easy and as comfortable as possible for the pilot by using
stabilization technology that keeps your model flying as it works to
counter the effects of variable wind/weather by making slight
adjustments to the control surfaces.
Why use an airplane gyro? - Gyros (also called
flight stabilizers) help keep your airplane stable during take-off,
flight maneuvers, and landings which can be helpful during windy days or
when learning how to fly RC planes. Gyros also help you master
aerobatic maneuvers like knife edges and hovering as the system can
"lock" in a planes position / trajectory. Once thought to be for
beginners only, Gyros are now common in all classes of aircraft and are
utilized by all levels of flyers. Gyros are great for learning, they let
pilots practice advanced aerobatics, they give you piece of mind in
less than ideal flight conditions.
Features:
- 32-bit MCU, High-Precision 6-axis MEMS sensor
- Improved hardware platform and new firmware
- 6 Pre-programmed flight modes:
-
Gyro Off Mode - When this mode is selected, the gyro will be deactivated completely.
-
Normal Mode (2D Mode) - This is the standard flight stabilization mode.
-
Atti-Lock Mode (3D Mode) - The gyro will attempt to hold your
last position by making constant corrections to rotational movements on
each axis. An example would be holding a knife edge maneuver.
-
Trainer Mode - In this mode you can only tilt the plane to a certain angle and rolls and loops are not allowed.
-
Auto-Level Mode - The plane will be brought to normal, level flight automatically when releasing the sticks.
-
Auto Hover Mode - Provides the same functionality as the
Auto-Level mode, except when you release the sticks, the plane will be
brought to the vertical position (nose up) and hold a hover.
- 3 Wing Types: (Standard, Delta, and V-Tail)
- Compatible with most standard, PPM single-line and Futaba's S.Bus and S.Bus 2 receivers
- Separate gain adjustment for aileron, elevator and rudder
- Remote master gain support
- Sub trim and travel limit support

IMPORTANT - Please Read This Carefully
- Proper setup of the Hobby Eagle Gyro is crucial. Read the gyro
instruction manual completely before attempting to fly your aircraft.
Failure to follow setup instructions can result in loss of control and
inevitable damage to your aircraft.
- Ensure the gyro is installed in the proper orientation (see manual)
and is mounted to a hard surface near the aircraft's CG point.
- When you first plug in your aircraft battery DO NOT move your aircraft for at least 10 seconds to allow the gyro to perform self-calibration.
- It is crucial to verify that the gyro is moving the control surfaces
in the correct direction BEFORE attempting to fly your aircraft.
Failure to do so could result in loss of control during flight.
- Setup one of your gyro control switches (3 position switch on your
radio) to activate Gyro Disable. This safety feature will allow you turn
off the gyro if you encounter any issues during flight.
-
ANY warranty claim for Hobby Eagle gyros applies to the gyro only, not the aircraft in which the gyro was installed.
