The RCA-11A series of vacuum directional gyros utilize and air driven precision gyro that controls a vertical rotating azimuth gimbal. The R.C. Allen Model RCA11A has been designed to provide a long life of accurate opperation even when subjected to severe operating requirements. This instrument is engineered with a minimum of machined parts, providing lower initial cost and lower maintenance cost throught its lifetime.
The RCA15 Series electric directional gyro employs and electrically driven gyro motor and is a direct reading, azimuth indicator. Rotor run up time is 3 min. They have a built in inverter which converts aircraft DC power to the required AC voltage and frequency. May be used in both fixed wing and rotor wing aircraft and is easily installed in standard 3 1/8
A 1/4 inch-18 NPTF nylon tube slip fitting is recommended for vacuum hose installation.Meets of exceeds all requirements of FAA TSO C5c and Aeronautical Standard AS397.
RCA 15 Series Gyro heading Bug and Autopilot Output have a push to set knob, AC brush less motor, & power failure flag. These are unlit. Choose from 14 and 28 volt Directional Gyros with heading bug or 400HZ, 5K autopilot output. Autopilot output needs to be specified at the time of order.
