This Carl Goldberg Products model of a Yakovlev Yak-54 is an example of a high-performance, fully aerobatic park flyer-class plane Carl Goldberg Products is a Champaign, Illinois -based manufacturer of radio-controlled airplane kits and Almost Ready to Fly models.
An air data computer (ADC) or central air data computer (CADC) computes altitude, vertical speed, air speed, and Mach number from pressure and temperature inputs. [1] It is an essential avionics component found in modern aircraft.
With sensor fusion, drift from the gyroscopes integration is compensated for by reference vectors, namely gravity, and the Earth's magnetic field. [3] This results in a drift-free orientation, making an AHRS a more cost effective solution than conventional high-grade IMUs that only integrate gyroscopes and rely on a high bias stability of the ...
The transponder gets its altitude information from an encoding altimeter mounted behind the instrument panel that communicates via the Gillham code. Gillham code is a zero-padded 12-bit binary code using a parallel nine- [ 1 ] to eleven-wire interface , [ 2 ] the Gillham interface , that is used to transmit uncorrected barometric altitude ...
Efforts in 1971 to develop the 'Mandrake' as a high-altitude interceptor (Yak-25PA) proved unsuccessful. Yakovlev Yak-26. In 1961 a series of lightened 'Mandrakes' were produced as high-altitude target drones. The Yak-25RV-I was used as a manned target for unarmed (no live fire) interception practice, the Yak-25RV-II as a remote-piloted drone.
Altitude awareness is crucial at all times during the jump, and determines the appropriate response to maintain safety. Since altitude awareness is so important in skydiving, there is a wide variety of altimeter designs made specifically for use in the sport, and a non-student skydiver will typically use two or more altimeters in a single jump: [6]
Yak-38 fighter aircraft of Soviet aircraft carrier Novorossiysk. Yak-1 (1940 - World War II fighter) Yak-3 (1943 - World War II fighter) Yak-7 "Mark" (1941 - World War II single-seat fighter) Yak-9 "Frank" (1942 - World War II fighter/bomber, improved Yak-7DI) Yak-15 "Feather" (1946 - first successful Soviet jet fighter, developed from Yak-3U)
All the Yak-18 and Yak-18T have in common is the model number. The Yak-18T is a unique design, despite its nomenclature. The 18T was designed in the late 60's, as a civilian aircraft. The aircraft has a nosewheel, is a four- or five-seater, and has a nine-cylinder 360 hp radial. The Yak-18T shares systems with the Yak-50/52 family. These ...
