A3 MINI 6-Axis Airplane Gyro Standard Edition from HobbyEagle - HEA3MINI
A3 Mini is a high-performance and functional 6-axis mini gyro and stabilizer designed for R/C airplanes. The smaller size and more compact design make it more suitable for the small electric airplanes. With the new feature of multi-protocol serial receiver support, it's compatible with most single line mini receivers on the market.
Why use an airplane gyro? - Gyros (also called flight stabilizers) help keep your airplane stable during take-off, flight maneuvers, and landings which can be helpful during windy days or when learning how to fly RC planes. Once thought to be for beginners only, Gyros are now common in all classes of aircraft and are utilized by all levels of flyers. Gyros are great for learning, they let pilots practice advanced aerobatics, they give you piece of mind in less than ideal flight conditions, and they can often help you avoid costly crash damage.

IMPORTANT - Please Read This Carefully
- Proper setup of the HobbyEagle Gyro is crucial. Read the gyro instruction manual completely before attempting to fly your aircraft. Failure to follow setup instructions can result in loss of control and inevitable damage to your aircraft.
- Ensure the gyro is installed in the proper orientation (see manual) and is mounted to a hard surface near the aircraft's CG point.
- When you first plug in your aircraft battery DO NOT move your aircraft for at least 10 seconds to allow the gyro to perform self-calibration.
- It is crucial to verify that the gyro is moving the control surfaces in the correct direction BEFORE attempting to fly your aircraft. Failure to do so could result in loss of control during flight.
- Setup one of your gyro control switches (3 position switch on your radio) to activate Gyro Disable. This safety feature will allow you turn off the gyro if you encounter any issues during flight.
- ANY warranty claim for HobbyEagle gyros applies to the gyro only, not the aircraft in which the gyro was installed.
Receiver Connection
A3 Mini supports PPM and multi-protocol digital serial receivers which allows you to connect the receiver to the gyro with one single wire on the slot [Serial RX]. Depending upon the receiver type selected, A3 Mini uses the preset channel assignment to recognize the channels from the receiver. Refer to the table below and check if your radio transmits the channels in the correct order. After each time you have changed the receiver type the current channel settings will be reset to the default. Choose 'None' for those channels you do not use.
