Autopilot

When Aetos system is extended with one or two servo motors, than Aetos
can be also used as a main autopilot controlling device. In general, no other
electronics, but servos is needed.

This section describes basic operations with autopilot system.

10.1

System Description

Autopilot system shown on Figure 45 consists of Aetos, power supply switch
and two or more servo motors units called

Seru

. All these units are connected

via CAN data bus which enables the communication between them. The
Aetos is used for autopilot control and configuration. The Seru units are
servo-motors which are moving the aircraft control surfaces. Power switch is
used to cut the power to the servo motors – this quickly disables servo motors
and frees the aircraft commands. It is also possible to install a quick autopilot
disable switch which can be placed on the command stick of the airplane.

Figure 45:

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.
