- Up to a total of 16 channels
- 24-bit resolution
- Input current: 100 pA, Chopper Stabilized
- Instrumentation amplifier
- Scalable input span (bipolar/unipolar): 25 mV, 55 mV, 100 mV, 1 V, 2.5 V, 5 V
- Built-in noise filter
- 5 Hz sample rate
- 3.8 cm x 3.2 cm
COMPASS
The MicroPilot compass is a 3-D compass that compensates for pitch and roll. This accessory is useful when flying in high winds as it gives an accurate indication of where the nose of the plane is pointing, unlike the GPS heading which is the direction the plane is heading.
- Provides heading information
- Provides wind velocity and direction
- Allows for greater tolerance of high winds
- Provides dead reckoning capabilities
- Provides heading information with no speed — used for hovering applications
- 3-D aircraft capable — it provides accurate heading information even during banked flight, unlike the accelerometer-based 3-D compass
- 2.6 cm x 3.2 cm
