5000EG Electric Attitude Gyro

5000EG-series Electric Attitude Gyroscopes

The 5000EG gyro is based on our air-driven 5000B model, whose proven reliability has made it the industry standard for many years. There are two models available: 14 and 28 VDC. The rotor is precisely machined from a heavy-metal tungsten alloy, which has a higher mass than brass, contributing to the instrument’s demonstrated stability. The electric motor is driven by a built-in power inverter, and has an integrated air-erection mechanism. A warning flag is deployed upon loss of primary power. During acrobatic flights or short stops, the gyro’s mechanism can be caged whenever the knob is pulled.

This instrument is FAA certified, and can be used to replace the aircraft’s turn coordinator when equipped with an inclinometer.

The electric gyro can replace most air driven gyros with the major difference being its electric power source and the layout and colors of the display.
