The Futaba GY520 Heading Hold Gyro paired with the S9257 High-Speed Digital Servo provides a compact, precise solution for RC helicopter tail control. This combination is suitable for pilots who demand stable heading hold in both precision and 3D flight regimes.
The GY520 combines sensing and control in a single, lightweight module to reduce mass on the airframe. Its high-speed PID control gives fast corrective action and the MEMS-on-chip implementation improves reliability and long term consistency.
Compatible with analog and digital servos, the GY520 offers operation at 280Hz in 1520uS mode and 506Hz in 760uS mode. These options allow users to match response characteristics to their chosen servo for firm tail holding under load.
Configuration is available through a single-button interface with multi-colour LED feedback, or via PC using the Futaba CIU-2 USB adapter for more detailed setup. This gives a straightforward path for pilots to dial in settings.
Overall, the Futaba GY520 and S9257 form a compact, reliable pairing for pilots who want improved tail accuracy and swift servo response on their helis.
