Eagle A3-L V2 Airplane Flight Stabilizer / 3 Axis Gyro - HEA3LITE

The Eagle A3-L airplane gyro is the new upgraded version of the top selling Eagle Pro SE. Major updates include a new light-weight protective shell, updated v2.7 logic software, remote master gain control, and automatic gyro calibration at start-up. The Eagle A3-L has three gyro modes: normal/2D mode, 3D mode, and gyro deactivated mode. Additionally it supports both analog and digital servos and provides separate gain adjustments for each flight mode. All functions of the Eagle A3-L are easy to setup via a simple on-board button and indicator LED. The A3-L provides excellent stability for any size electric RC plane, offering an incredible advance in airplane gyro technology for an affordable price.

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. 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, and they can often help you avoid costly crash damage.

FEATURES:

• Works with all major receiver brands including Spektrum, Futaba, Hitec, JR, and more.
• 3 Pre-programmed flight modes:
• Normal Mode (2D Mode): this is the standard flight stabilization mode.
• 3D Flight Mode: this mode will attempt to hold the LAST position the aircraft was in. For example, if you put the airplane into a knife edge and then activate 3D mode, the airplane will hold the knife edge.
• Gyro Deactivated Mode: this turns the gyro off to allow unassisted/non-stabilized flight.
• 3 Wing Types: standard, delta, and v-tail.
• One-key setting mode with colored LED indicator light
• Remote master gain
• Supports 50Hz, 125Hz, and 250Hz servo frequencies
• Separate gain adjustment for each flight mode
• Automatic gyro calibration (auto stick centering) at start-up
• High Voltage (7.4v) compatible
• Futaba S.Bus and S.Bus 2 compatible
• Easy to use, extremely well-suited to beginners.
• small, lightweight form-factor

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.

WIRING

The new A3 series provides 5-channel inputs and 3-channel outputs. You only need to connect the receiver and servos to the corresponding pins on the side of the controller. The knobs are used to adjust the gain for each flight mode, clockwise to increase, anti-clockwise to decrease. Futaba's S.Bus and S.Bus 2 are supported by the new A3 series.

A3-L SETTING MENU

When the controller is working, press and hold down the button for more than 2 seconds which will allow you to enter the settings menu as all settings are completed by the button. Please consult the manual for more details.

PACKAGE CONTENTS

The box contains 4 receiver wires and 2 pieces of double-sided tape in addition to the A3.
