Gyros

Electronic Gyros, including Piezo
The Etronix CSG Countersteer Gyro allows you to drive your RC car with more confidence, the CSG's hold effect manages the steering output by automatically keeping the car’s tires aligned in the direction you choose. With heading hold, the car is more manoeuvrable and controllable. R/C driving is a skill and for some can take years of practice. It can be frustrating trying to control your vehicle in low traction conditions or when trying to master drifting or other cornering techniques without the vehicle spinning out. The Etronix steering gyro is the perfect electronics aide for you to perform all your maneuvers like a pro! Whilst not legal for competitive racing, the gyro “damps” or reduces unwanted movement, movement that you didn’t input with the transmitter such as the rear tyres sliding and losing traction. The gyro senses this un-commanded movement, and compensates by sending a signal to the steering servo to counteract it. This new Etronix unit is small enough to mount anywhere and great value for money.

Gyros are critical to the stabilisation of Radio Controlled Helicopters, and can also be utilised in Radio Controlled Aircraft. A gyroscope or gyro for short is a high precision electronic device. Using piezo technology the gyro senses the direction of flight of the model aircraft, and makes subtle adjustments to the rudder Servo if it recognises any deviation from it's course. In helicopters the gyro will automatically apply extra rudder to the model when the head rotation speed increases, which creates counter-torque in the body. If rudder or aileron is applied by the operator, this overrides the function of the gyro until that control is released, then the device will recalibrate itself to the new heading. For complicated stunt flying, or competition flying a heading hold or heading lock gyro is a must, giving far greater levels of stability in this fast moving environment
