GYROPILOT2 / GYROPILOT3 IMPROVEMENT
•
CFP/RP configuration without hardware modification.
•
6 LEDs on the front panel to indicate the status of the autopilot.
•
New high-performance electronic components.
•
Faster algorithm with more accurate steering control.
•
Enhanced pilot problem diagnosis.
•
Securing of the steering system.
•
Improvement of the tacking algorithm.
•
Improved MOB algorithm with gybe "heave to" logic and logic for use of all sensors
regardless of the configuration preceding the new order.
•
Suppression of the rudder stroke if the rudder angle sensor is no longer available.
•
Wind tables are taken into account in the autopilot's calculations.
•
Message on bus when none execution of initialisation is detected.
•
In case of overload, the processor keeps steering. It limits the intensity to 25A for the
duration of the overload. However, if this lasts longer than 10 minutes, the GyroPilot 3
stops steering.
•
Linear rudder sensor management.
•
Improved Tiller algorithm with speed feedback control.
•
Polar mode.
•
Heel angle mode.
•
Gust mode.
