Once the
nke
rotary rudder angle sensor is correctly installed, the measurement of one
degree of rudder rotation will be automatically converted by the GyroPilot 3 calculator into
one degree of rudder in the autopilot.
Analog linear rudder angle:
The GyroPilot 3 system also integrates linear rudder angles. To take such a sensor into
account, it is necessary to measure the triangle of the steering system (see picture below). 5
measures are required:
