The Cool City HAP-150 Helicopter Autopilot System is a three-axis (roll/pitch/yaw) rate/attitude based AP. The HAP-150 brings unparalleled performance and safety to light and medium-sized rotorcraft at a fraction of the cost of systems that were designed many years ago.
The HAP-150 provides a three-axis rate/attitude based autopilot system, increasing the pilot’s ability to handle the workload extremes of the rotorcraft cockpit environment. Available modes of the HAP-150 include: HDG (heading mode), IAS (indicated airspeed), ALT (altitude hold), VS (vertical speed), LNAV (lateral navigation), and VNAV (vertical navigation).
The Yaw Damper engages with the autopilot; however, it may be operated alone or turned off, as the pilot desires. The Yaw Damper function also monitors collective inputs to provide rudder movement to offset collective changes.
