AP 10.1 autopilot is designed to control the vehicles automatically, semi-automatically or manual modes.

The system is configurable for the following platforms:

• for the airplanes take-off from the runway and landing on the runway in automatic mode
• for the helicopters take-off and landing in automatic mode
• for boats
• for lighter than-air aircraft

AP 10.1 can be installed on aircraft with weight over 100 kg (for the lighter aircraft we recommend Mini version – AP10.2, or Micro version – AP10.3).

Main benefits:

• extended modular configuration
• system out-of-the-box insulation against vibrations

Payload of almost any type can be connected and controlled using the interfaces:

• 1-Wire
• RS-232
• RS-485
• UART
• CAN

• control of actuating mechanisms
• engine control
• semi-automatic control with automatic stabilization of the vehicles
• manual control using the main 928MHz communication channel
• from ground control station (GCU)
• control of the vehicles object in emergency mode
• payload control
• payload feedback
• control of rotating platforms in gyro-stabilization mode using AP10.1
• receipt and transfer of telemetric data between GCU and the vehicles
• simulation mode
• flight simulator
• onboard power control
• power stabilization
• conversion
• power distribution, including emergency power supply mode
• onboard power monitoring

Available Interfaces:

• up to 15 x servo drives (PWM control)
• 2x inputs for RPM sensor (Hall-effect sensors)
• 1-Wire interface
• TTL UART interface
• RS-485 interface
• Controller area network - CAN
• RS-232 interface
• Low-side power output (3.7A, @ 20V, 68MOhm)
• 3x digital inputs (timing, level)
• 5x general purpose inputs-outputs (remappable on MCU)
