- A3-L have updated to A3 Lite Version. The A3 Lite is the latest 3-axis gyro for airplanes, which is developed based on AVR platform and applies the high efficiency, concise and mature algorithm.
- The A3 Lite provides users with more powerful and better performance. Standard PWM receivers, PPM and Futaba S.Bus receivers supported.
- Experience with previous gyros and introduces many new features such as PPM receiver support, separate 3-axis basic gain adjustment and the throttle output channel for mini serial receivers.
- A3 Lite provides 3 flight modes which can be switched by a 3-position switch of the transmitter during flight. The factory default mode allocation of the switch is NORMAL – GYRO OFF - LOCK. The color of the LED shows the current flight mode of the gyro while in use.

NORMAL Mode:
The NORMAL mode, also known as the 'Rate mode', is the most basic function of the gyro. It works based on the rotation rate control of each axis of the airplane. When operating in this mode, the gyro will only correct currently occurring rotational movements, a momentary reaction will be applied to the servos when the airplane rotating on corresponding axis, after rotation the servos will move back to their neutral position as soon as the airplane standing still immediately. The NORMAL mode can be used with nearly any size and type of airplanes. It can effectively improve the stability and precision of the airplane and reduce the stall point specially.
GYRO OFF Mode:
When operating in GYRO OFF mode the gyro will be deactivated completely, and the airplane will be completely under the control of your transmitter as it was before installing the gyro. This mode is usually used for testing purpose only.
LOCK Mode:
The LOCK mode is also known as the 'Attitude Lock mode', '3D mode' or 'AVCS mode'. Different from NORMAL mode, the gyro will perform a permanent correction for rotational movements on each axis constantly. That is when you release the sticks the airplane will stop and lock its current position immediately. This mode is well suited for practicing basic 3D maneuvers such as hovering or knife edge. Since it can help you to lock the attitude of the airplane, it is also helpful for landing.
