FY-41AP Flight Stabilization System

Installation & Operation Manual

Dear Customer：

Thank you for choosing FY-41AP as your autopilot system. Please read this

manual carefully to ensure correct installation & operation.

If you are a complete beginner & have never flown one before, we do not

recommend you install this device on your own. Please find an experienced RC

pilot who may provide you with the basic knowledge required to use this

device successfully.

If you are already an experienced flyer, you will find the FY-41AP installation to

be easy & logical. Follow this manual & you won‟t go wrong.

If you need further technical support, contact us at: service@feiyu-tech.com

FY41AP - overview：

a) FY-41AP is an inertial attitude stabilizer for fixed-wing & multirotor aircraft.

b) The FY41AP has an on screen display (OSD) hardware already integrated

into the module, making installation for FPV simple, light and compact.

Critical flight information is displayed via your existing downlink system.

c) Flight stabilization is achieved via an integrated 3 axis gyro, 3 axis

accelerometer, 3 axis magnetometer and a barometric pressure sensor. This

enables the module to accurately measure flight attitude, earth azimuth &

relative altitude to achieve:

Extremely stable conventional flight pattern

Stabilized 3D flight

Automatically return to home (RTL)

Fixed altitude flight

Heading lock flight

GPS waypoint flight

Auto circling over a fixed GPS location.

d) GPS Data –enables the FY-41AP to calculate the flight course & sense the

exact location of the aircraft. GPS Data allows aircraft return to home (RTL),

Auto Circle, Fixed altitude, Heading lock flight and fully autonomous flight

via GPS waypoints setting.

e) Airspeed sensor –enables the system to automatically control airspeed

via throttle management, prevents aircraft stall and ensures flight

stabilization.

f) Integrated OSD with adjustable display - OSD hardware is integrated

into the module. Critical flight parameters are displayed via the video

downlink. The display parameter outlay can be changed via RC control.

g) Power Manager Module - FY-41AP is supplied with an integrated Power

Manager and Current Sensor module. This module provides +5v power to

the FY41AP, RC Receiver and +12V FPV video camera and transmitter. The

current sensor sends battery voltage, Amp draw and power consumption

data to the FY41AP integrated OSD.

h) Altitude control - is achieved using a high sensitivity barometric sensor

which measures relative height. Altitude is fixed via elevator servo control

and throttle management.

i) Heading control –is achieved by utilizing the three axis magnetometer,

which senses the aircraft heading angle. Both the aileron & rudder servo is

used to control flight heading. GPS data is used to automatically correct

heading even in windy conditions.

FY-41AP FLIGHT MODES

With GPS data input, the following are the FY41AP selectable flight modes:

●Deactivated Mode - In this mode, the FY-41AP auto stabilization is turned off.

The aircraft is completely under pilot control.

●Stabilized Mode - level flight is automatically maintained, making flight simple,

especially for beginners. If a pilot feels the plane is out of control, simply reduce

input control and the plane will automatically recover level flight.

●3D Mode –if no input is given by the pilot (all sticks in the middle position), 3D

mode will lock the current aircraft attitude. Therefore the aircraft can be easily

maneuvered to complete a variety of 3D flight with added stability & smoothness.

●Fixed altitude & Heading lock Mode –this mode maintains aircraft flight

course & holds the altitude on activation. By using GPS data, the system

automatically corrects flight course deviation & maintains straight-line flight.

●Auto Circling Mode –On activation, the plane will maintain altitude and flight

speed, while initiating a counterclockwise circle. The centre of the circle is the point

of activation at a default radius of 80 meters (can be changed via FY GCS).

●Waypoint Navigation Flight Mode - enable you to fly fully autonomous, with

up to 20 waypoint settings via the FY Ground Control Station (GCS) software.

●Auto Return To Launch Mode (RTL) –Upon activation of this Mode, the

aircraft will automatically return to the Home point,maintaining is current altitude.

Upon reaching the Home point, it will initiate auto circling.

●GCS software –By using a field computer and connecting the FY41AP to an FY

Data Radio via the UART port, you can set the FY41AP flight parameters, monitor

the flight progress & record / reply the flight via the FYGCS programme. For more

information, please refer to the FY Data Radio manual.
