CSM ICG 180 Piezo gyro 

 
The ICG 180 has been designed as an easy to use beginners/sport gyro and is an 
economic option to the high performance heading hold gyro. 
 
This is a totally new design which features: 
 

1. 

Durable, state of the art surface mount technology

2. 

Internal vibration damping

3. 

All new intelligent anti drift software

4.

 Small, lightweight, single box

 

design. 

5. 

Built in Pilot Authority Mixing lets you stay in command through the most 

strenuous manoeuvres. This eliminates the need for two gain settings.

 

6. 

Superior performance to any other gyro in it's class. 

 
The wiring on this gyro is compatible with JR, Futaba, Hi-Tec, Graupner, Robbe and the 
new style only (Blue Plug) Sanwa/Airtronics radio systems, to use this unit with other makes 
of radio please check with the service centre in your country or e-mail the CSM service 
centre. 
 

Installation 

To connect, simply plug in-line between the receiver and the appropriate servo. For tail 
stabilisation this will be the rudder servo.

Make sure the gyro is mounted parallel to the axis being sensed. For tail stabilisation yaw 
movements are detected and the gyro should be mounted vertically (parallel to the main 
rotor shaft)
