AFC001AC
The Archangel Systems Automatic Flight Controller Alternating Current (AFC001AC) is designed to modernize legacy aircraft with analog instruments by integrating digital avionics. It converts data from a Hi-Speed ARINC 429 Buss into ARINC 407 signals, facilitating the operation of autopilots and analog indicators.
Features
- Seamless interface with ARINC 429 ADAHRS.
- Certified for Part 23, 25, 27, and 29 aircraft.
- Provides accurate Synchro signals for autopilot use.
- Equipped with Mil Spec 38999 filtered connectors.
Certifications
- DO-178B Level A software.
- FAA TSO C9c.
- DO-160E Environmental certifications, including EMI, EMC, and HIRF.
Exporting
The AFC001AC is exportable worldwide without requiring an end-user statement.
