MGL2T2- Ray Allen T2/T3 servo emulator

Post by sparxfly »

The MGL2T2 connects a Ray Allen trim servo to an MGL EFIS as if it were a standard MGL servo.
For well-behaved aircraft this means you can fly the AP using trim rather than directly driving the control surface with servo.
Still in the early days of testing as pitch control on a mate's Tecnam Bravo (he already has an MGL servo for roll).
It is intended for holding attitude in cruise configuration- S&L or gentle turns/climb/descent- rather than circuit manouvers or in significant turbulence.
Once we are happy with its performance and reliability I will make it available, and hope to build up a database of confirmed installations and setups.
There is a PDF user guide on my dropbox
here.
