Mounting/Operating Precautions

Insert the connectors fully and firmly.
If a connector works loose due to vibration during flight, control may
be lost and result in a dangerous situation.
Always use the accessory sensor tape to install the sensor to the
fuselage.
This is necessary to securely fasten the sensor to the fuselage so that
operation of the gyro does not transmit unwanted fuselage vibrations
directly to the sensor.
When mounting the sensor, provide a little surplus so that the
sensor connection cables are not too taut.
If the sensor cables are too taut, the gyro will not display its full
performance. If the sensor peels, control will be lost and result in a
dangerous situation.
Mount the sensor and control amp so that metals or other
conductive objects do not touch these cases.
The GY502 uses a conductive resin case to reduce electromagnetic
interference. Because the surface of the case is conductive, metal
objects may cause a short circuit.
Mount the sensor and servo at least 2cm apart.
When using a GV-1 governor, mount the sensor and GV-1 amp
at least 5cm apart.
When using the GY502 with a motor-driven helicopter, mount
the sensor and drive motor at least 10cm apart.
Noise from the servo motor, GV-1 amp and drive motor may cause
the performance of an erroneously operated gyro to drop.
