Figure 85:
Main units of the autopilot system. Some units are optional.
Each Seru unit is controlling one aircraft control surface. In two axis autopilot
system, one Seru unit is linked to the aircraft aileron which is controlling the
roll angle and therefore controlling the heading of the aircraft. The second
Seru unit is linked to the aircraft elevator and is controlling aircraft pitch and
therefore altitude or vertical speed.

Autopilot Status Window
Autopilot status box as shown in Figure 86 can be found on each Nesis screen.
The status box shows state of autopilot axes. A green text next to the axis
indicates that it is active. A gray text means that an axis is disabled. In ad-
dition, selected autopilot parameters are also shown in the status box. When
both autopilot axes are disabled the status box is hidden, automatically.
Figure 86:
An example of the autopilot status box.
A short touch on the autopilot status opens the autopilot menu. A long touch
on the autopilot status disables the autopilot.
