I have my gyro mounted onto a graphite plate in my chopper and am seeing some slight drifting. Is there anything I can do about this?
Yes. We believe the graphite is slightly affecting the sensor's readings. The later shipments of GY240, 401, 502, and 601 gyros all include a small steel plate to resolve this mild drift. You mount the steel plate between 2 pieces of double-sided tape and mount the sensor onto the top side tape.
Please note that MOST helis have no need for this added plate, nor the space it takes up and added complexity of mounting as well as extra mobility of their sensor, so use it only if needed in your heli. If your GY501 did not come with a plate, please fax or mail us a copy of this FAQ with a copy of your proof of purchase for the gyro and we will send you a plate for your gyro.
