Setting
The GSA 28 pitch servo has a configurable maximum torque setting.
This determines how much torque the servo will output before the
electronic slip clutch begins to slip.
Maximum The Maximum Torque setting should be set high enough to not slip
Torque* during in-flight air loading, but low enough for the pilot to override
the autopilot if required.
The Maximum Torque setting can be adjusted from 15% to 100%
in 5% steps.
The GSA 28 pitch servo has a configurable servo gain setting. This
determines how aggressively the pitch servo will move the elevator
surfaces.
The Servo Gain should be set high enough to properly fly the
Servo Gain*
desired pitch, vertical speed, and altitude, but low enough to avoid
being overly aggressive in the elevator movements.
The servo gain setting can be adjusted from 0.00 to 10.00 in steps
of 0.05.
