Description
The Futaba GYA440 is a high-performance, lightweight single-axis gyro designed specifically for RC aircraft. Whether you are looking to stabilize your aircraft’s Elevator (Pitch) or Rudder (Yaw), the GYA440 offers a level of precision and ease of use that is synonymous with Futaba’s stabilization technology. By utilizing a high-density MEMS (Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems) sensor, it provides rock-solid stability even in windy conditions, making it an excellent choice for scale models, high-speed jets, and beginners looking for extra flight security.
Key Features:
- Dedicated Flight Modes: Features AVCS (Heading Hold) for precise maneuvers and 3D flight, and Normal Mode for traditional stabilization that corrects for wind gusts without fighting the pilot's inputs.
- S.Bus/S.Bus2 Compatibility: Can be connected via a single cable to S.Bus systems, drastically reducing wiring clutter and simplifying installation in tight fuselages.
- Remote Gain Control: Allows you to adjust the gyro's sensitivity (gain) directly from your transmitter during flight, ensuring you can find the perfect setting for different airspeeds.
- Digital & Analog Servo Support: Compatible with both servo types via a simple selector switch, allowing it to be integrated into almost any aircraft setup.
- Ultra-Compact Design: Its small footprint and 3.7g weight mean it can be installed in even the smallest park flyers without affecting the center of gravity.

Setup & Installation Tip:
The GYA440 is axis-specific depending on how you mount it. If you are using it for Yaw (Rudder), mount it flat. If using it for Pitch (Elevator), mount it vertically on its side. Always ensure the gyro is mounted away from the motor or engine to avoid vibration-induced "jitter," and use the provided high-quality mounting tape to dampen high-frequency interference.
