Sperry Autopilot
Modern Autopilot and avionics
1. Power indicator light
2. Rudder knob. In the real Sperry Gyropilot this allows the pilot/copilot to control
the heading of the aeroplane via the rudder control surfaces. In this simulation it is
setting the desired heading and the autopilot heading lock direction.
3. Heading indicator. The top scale indicates your desired heading ( set using the
rudder knob ) and the bottom scale indicates your current heading.
4. Cage gyro heading. Push to cage
5. Gyro heading adjustment knob
6. Aileron Knob. In the real Sperry Gyropilot this allows the pilot/copilot to control
the bank of the aeroplane via the aileron control surfaces. Not simulated ( this may
change at a later date ).
7. Arti�icial horizon and wing leveller
8. Cage Sperry AHI.
9. Gyro-pilot power. ( Also is power for the modern autopilot ).
10.
Elevator knob. In the real Sperry Gyropilot this allows the pilot/copilot to
control the pitch of the aeroplane via the elevator control surfaces. In this simulation
works as an altitude hold. It will also set the hold of the Modern autopilot system.
11. Suction pressure gauge. The gyro instruments require a good suction pressure
to be maintained.
We understand that some people
like and/or require a more
modern interface to use the
autopilot to that end we have
made a modern autopilot based
on the stock AS3X.
Please note this is entirely
optional and you do not need to
use it if you dont wish to. It
works exactly the same as the
stock Touch AS3X. It is expected
that you understand how to use
such a unit
