SECTION 1
GENERAL
The Bendix/King KAP 140 is an all electric, sing le axis (ai leron
I
control) autopilot system that provides lateral and directional control.
Components are a computer, a turn coordinator, an aileron actuator,
a course deviation indicator, and a directional gyro.
Roll and yaw motions of the airplane are sensed by the turn
coordinator gyro. The computer computes the necessary correction
and signals the actuator to move the ailerons to maintain the
airplane in the commanded lateral attitude.
The KAP 140 will provide wing leveler, heading hold, NAV track,
and approach and backcourse lateral modes.
I
A lockout device prevents autopilot engagement until the system
has been successfully preflight tested.
The following circuit breakers are used to protect the listed
