  • Took a broke a turn coordinator and I make work by bypassing the circuit board. I use it for the aviation high school class I teach.

    Nice, but I would've appreciated seeing how it responds to bank also, because that's where the confusion usually arises.

      The bank indicator is just a ball on a tube, just bank the instrument and it will move

      I was confused because he's just rotating the device like that, but that flat left to right motion is akin to only using rudder while the indicator shows banking. Is that distinction what you're talking about?

    I always thought a turn coordinator shows the rate of turn ie how big of circle you're turning, along with the bank angle. I was wrong, those 4 marks on the side of the little plane are not bank angles. I guess you have to look at the attitude indicator for bank angle.

    • @5695q
      @5695q Před měsícem +1

      The level marks are wings level, the lower marks represent the bank angle needed for a standard rate turn of 2 minutes. sliding the instrument on the table doesn't represent the true action of the gyro in flight. If he just rolled it on the table to line up the marks he would have been correct.

      @@5695q Thanx a lot for the explanation, so the pilot has to try and match up the bank angle to standard rate of turn? I don't know about rolling but sliding the instrument, he's also turning it, right?

    Yes, but "how" does it work?

    • @edessa99
      @edessa99  Před 6 měsíci +2

      Gyro spins and as you bank the gyro doesn't bank. The gyro cage banks and in turn pushes on a lever connected to the little airplane making it show a bank.

      It is displaying the rate of yaw, not bank. 3 degrees per second standard rate turns

    Уродливей прибора не видел. Подшипники которые там стоят, просто дерьмо. Через некоторое время он просто останавливается. Ремонт не возможен по причине невозможности достать оригинальные опоры, с внешним ребром.

    Ain't vectors cool? So are cross vectors. Right hand rule and all.
