Futaba G152 - Manual

The FP-G132/G152 is a single axis rate gyro designed to
stabilize aircrafts. Like full size aircrafts, stabilisation is ac-
complished by detecting angular acceleration with the rate
gyro. Detected motion information is fed to the control
amplifier, which then sends a counteraction signal to the
appropriate control surface.
•The FP-G152 is for Futaba J, M, and SG Series (1520 us,
neutral) digital proportional radio control sets.
•The FP-G132 is for Futaba E, F, G, H, and L Series digital
proportional radio control sets.
•Voltage regulated gyro motor supply maintains constant
motor speed and allows consistent gyro performance. The
voltage regulator is effective only when used with an ex-
ternal 6V. (five cell Nicad battery).
•Direction of correcting mix can be switched at the control
amplifier (internal reverse amp switch).
•Centering of the channel being stabilized can be adjusted
by a neutral trimmer built into the control amplifier.
•A very sensitive magnetic motion sensor with excellent
voltage characteristics, linear sensitivity, high speed
response is used. This results in superior neutral char-
acteristics. Such characteristics make it ideal for use in the
rudder channel of a model helicopter or in the aileron/
elevator channel of a model aircraft.
•Large 2mm diameter gyro motor shaft for long life and
strength.
•The gyro can be bypassed without affecting normal oper-
ation by turning the gyro power switch "off".
•Mount the gyro with grommets and screws or use two-
sided foam tape.
• Gyro output ("sensitivity") can be switched to one of two
preset outputs at the transmitter (use the retract switch if
possible, or any avail, channels).
