4000B ARINC-style Directional Gyroscopes
This instrument was developed for those pilots that prefer the distinct, professional look of an ARINC-styled cockpit. It is identical to the standard 4000B model differing mainly in aesthetics. Besides its distinct bezel and airplane, the display graphics and colors differentiate it from the standard model. A heading reminder bug is available as an option.

AC Calibration Standard
1U647-001
The 1U647-001 is a low cost calibration standard used to determine if a 1U632-100 or a 1U663-100 DMU requires factory calibration. Its portability makes it ideal for field-testing. The standard generates signals that simulate the aircraft’s resolvers, rotary variable transformers (RVTs), and linear variable displacement transformers (LVDTs). The unit also generates a pulse width modulated (PWM) signal, and routes the output of an ARINC 429 source to the different DMU input channels. The calibration standard connects directly to the DMU and replaces the output signals of an active extender card. Discrete switch settings simplify testing. The unit is housed in a rugged aluminum case.

Autopilot Directional Gyroscopes
4000C/D-series
The 4000C/D is an air-driven directional gyro with A.C. autopilot pickoffs. Left turns produce clockwise dial rotation and right turns produce counter-clockwise rotation. Two knobs control the gyro. The left knob is used to cage the unit, and the right knob is used to select the instrument’s heading. To change course, the right selector knob is pressed and turned to disengage the dial shaft and set the pointer to a new heading. Releasing the selector knob re-engages the pointer with the dial shaft. As the aircraft turns onto a new course, the pointer returns to its original position. The on-course position of the pointer is always at the top of the azimuth circle (0° on the dial with the aircraft headed north).

Heading Reference Directional Gyroscopes
4000HR-series
The 4000HR air-driven directional gyro offers some of the best features of our other popular models. It inherited all of the functionality and reliability of the industry standard 4000B upon which it’s based, and it picked up a heading reference bug from the 4000C autopilot model.

Breakout Box and Data Logger
1U643-001
The 1U634 Breakout Box and Data Logger was developed for the Cessna Excel to serve as the main diagnostics tool for the aircraft?? electronic modules. It allows access to the module pins, and its internal microcomputer digitizes the signals and transmits them to a PC-compatible computer. Advanced software in the computer displays pin voltages either in numerical or graphical form. Data files can be recorded on disk, and played back at a later time for detailed analysis.

ARINC-style Attitude Gyroscopes
1U367-series
The 1U367 has a pictorial horizon mask and a fixed airplane. The mask moves to indicate climb, dive, and bank. Bank and pitch attitudes are diaplayed so that the pilot's sensing of the gyro's horizon indication is the same as the interpretation of the relationship between the wings of the aircraft and the natural horizon during visual flight.

Electric Attitude Gyroscopes
5000EG-series
The 5000EG gyro is based on our air-driven 5000B model, whose proven reliability has made it the industry standard for many years. There are two models available: 14 and 28 VDC. The rotor is precisely machined from a heavy-metal tungsten alloy, which has a higher mass than brass, contributing to the instrument’s demonstrated stability. The electric motor is driven by a built-in power inverter, and has an integrated air-erection mechanism. A warning flag is deployed upon loss of primary power. During acrobatic flights or short stops, the gyro’s mechanism can be caged whenever the knob is pulled.

Multifunction Engine Gauge
1U378-series
This 3” instrument combines the three essential engine parameters in a compact package. Rugged D’Arsonval meter movements with two jewels are used to indicate cylinder head and oil temperatures. A brass bourdon tube mechanism precisely indicates oil pressure. A selection of fittings is available to simplify installation.

5000B-series Attitude Gyroscopes With Warning Flag
This gyro is a variation of our popular 5000B air-driven attitude gyro. It includes a warning flag that drops into view upon the loss of vacuum. This can be a life saving feature during an emergency in a busy cockpit. The horizon mask moves to indicate climb, dive, and bank attitudes, which are portrayed against a fixed airplane. The fluid movements and intuitive presentation provide the pilot with a realistic sense of the aircraft’s attitude in relation to the natural horizon.
