Not since the GY series was introduced in 2000 has there been a heli gyro breakthrough like this. Even with its incredibly small size and light weight, the GY520 gyro delivers premium performance, and it excels with any type of servo, and in any size machine. The GY520 is the gyro of tomorrow, and it's available today from Futaba.
Outstanding Advantages of the GY520
It's a quantum leap ahead of all other heading hold gyros in size, weight and performance.
Outperforms all others in tail holding ability.
Installs easily in any size heli, from the tiniest electric to .91 glow-powered 3D monsters and scale models.
Performs brilliantly with both analog and digital servos.
AVCS and Normal modes.
Affordable price.
