Yaw Damper

Product catalog summary

Improved Autopilot Performance
The Genesys Aerosystems Yaw Damper offers a single, integrated system that significantly reduces skid and slip, enhancing autopilot performance. It replaces the traditional rate gyro with a precise accelerometer, minimizing moving parts and improving reliability.

Lightweight Design
This system is designed to be lightweight, reducing the overall weight of the aircraft components, which contributes to better fuel efficiency and performance.

Three Modes for Flexibility
The Yaw Damper features three operational modes: Auto, On, and Off. The Auto mode activates the damper when the autopilot is engaged, the On mode allows independent operation, and the Off mode disables the system. This flexibility is particularly useful in varying conditions such as high crosswinds or rapid altitude changes.

Cost-Effective Solution
Despite its advanced functionality, the system is cost-effective, offering a low-cost solution for enhancing autopilot capabilities.

Advanced Features

Panel-mounted on/off switch available in horizontal or vertical configurations.
Rudder trim control for precise adjustments.
Remote-mounted sensor/computer/servo amplifier with solid-state design.
Single accelerometer sensor that moves only 0.020” per G of acceleration.
Automatic on/off mode integrated with roll and/or pitch autopilot.

Specifications

System weight (including servo actuator): 3.8 lbs.
Power requirements: 14 or 28 VDC; 1.0 amps average, 3.0 amps maximum.
FAA TSO: C9c certified.

Conclusion
The Genesys Aerosystems Yaw Damper is a compact, efficient, and affordable solution that enhances autopilot performance with its innovative design and advanced features, making it an ideal choice for modern aircraft systems.
