•
GDL 90
(1) – A digital data link transceiver designed to transmit, receive and decode ADS-B traffic information,
as well as FIS-B weather information. It broadcasts aircraft position, velocity, projected track, altitude, and flight
identification to other equipped aircraft in the vicinity, as well as to FAA ground stations. The GDL 90 receives
FIS-B weather information which is displayed on the MFD as NEXRAD radar and METARs.
•
GSA 80, GSA 81
and
GSM 85 (
or
GSM 86)
– The GSA servos are used for the automatic control of pitch, pitch
trim, roll and yaw. These units interface with each IAU.
The GSM 85 (or GSM 86) servo mounts are responsible for transferring the output torque of the servo actuators
to the mechanical flight-control surface linkages (not displayed in Figure 1-1).
