Equipping With New Attitude Heading Reference System and Air Data Module

Pipistrel has selected Honeywell's next-generation Attitude Heading Reference System and Air Data Module for its Nuuva V300 cargo UAV. The technologies provide critical navigation and motion-sensing data and will work in tandem with Honeywell's Compact Fly-By-Wire system onboard the aircraft. If the fly-by-wire system operates as the "brain" of an aircraft's flight controls, the Attitude Heading Reference System (AH-2000) and Air Data Module (ADM) act as the "heart," supplying critical motion data to all avionics systems and many mechanical systems. Both the AH-2000 and ADM are enablers for efficient vehicle operations with potential to serve several flight applications.
