    if the direction is reversed. For dual aileron, dual elevator, and dual rudder aircraft, check the operating direction of each second aileron/elevator/rudder.

  • Neutral position setting for each servo.

Product Usage Instructions:

  1. On the home screen, basic information such as gyro operation mode, sensitivity, battery voltage are displayed.

  2. To set the wing type/tail type of GYA553, navigate to the appropriate menu and select the desired option.

  3. Select the servo type according to the servo you are using.
    Navigate to the servo type menu and choose either %JHJUBMTFSWP%()[ or OBMPHTFSWP/)( depending on your servo type.

  4. Check and adjust the operating direction of each second aileron/elevator/rudder for dual aileron, dual elevator, and dual rudder aircraft.

  5. Set the gyro direction by navigating to the gyro direction menu and selecting the appropriate option. Make sure the direction is set correctly to avoid crashes.

  6. If the SB/R2 port output is set to S.BUS(HS) or S.BUS(STD), navigate to the setting menu and adjust the neutral position for each servo.

By installing the latest software (Ver. 3.7 ~) on the T32MZ, you can setting the airplane gyro GYA553 on the T32MZ.

Config 1/7 Servo type

Select the servo type according to the servo to be used.
Digital servo → DG : 285 Hz
Analog servo → AN : 70 Hz
The stability of digital-servo mode of a flight increases in order to perform a high-speed control action.

This is the limit setting for each servo. The position of the maximum operation is read into the gyro in the first setting.

Aileron example

Config 6/7 Holding Power

It is a function to adjust the posture holding force of the aircraft in AVCS mode.
Decreasing the value weakens the holding power and makes the operation feeling closer to the normal mode.
The current rate numbers C1 to C5 are displayed by operating the channel of the transmitter.
Like the flight condition function of the transmitter, you can set up to 5 different data for the attitude holding force rate of the aircraft in AVCS mode by operating the switch from the transmitter, and switch between them. You can set the holding power rate selector switch to the channel with the AFR function of the transmitter, and set the point for each rate on the AFR point curve to switch. It is also possible to use the flight condition function to work with the flight condition switch.
