Futaba GY401 Gyro SMM Stability Unit  [GY401]

Futaba GY401 Gyro Tail Stabilisation

For RC helicopter enthusiasts seeking enhanced stability and control, the Futaba GY401 Gyro with SMM Technology offers a refined solution. The unit is compact yet capable, suited to pilots who demand reliable rudder behaviour in varied conditions.

Advanced Flight Aids

The GY401 features an Angular Vector Control System (AVCS) that helps simplify rudder inputs by compensating for attitude shifts caused by wind or aggressive manoeuvres. This makes it useful for pilots flying 3D or precision routines.

Built with Silicone Micro Machine (SMM) technology, the gyro reduces trim drift during a flight so rudder settings stay consistent. The GY401 is also designed to work with Futaba digital servos to take advantage of fast servo response.

In-Flight Gain Control

The GY401 supports remote gain adjustment, letting pilots tune sensitivity from the transmitter. The option to switch between AVCS and standard gyro modes adds flexibility for different flying styles.

Robust Lightweight Construction

Using high-density mounting techniques, the GY401 keeps weight low while remaining sturdy. Its conductive resin casing improves resistance to electrostatic and electromagnetic interference for dependable operation.

The Futaba GY401 Gyro is a practical upgrade for pilots focused on precise tail control and reliable performance. Its feature set and compact design suit competitive and recreational flying alike.
