How can dual-axis MEMS gyro make UAV achieve more stable flight?

For UAVS, the most core technical difficulty lies in the flight control system, which is comparable to the "brain" of UAVS, and gyroscope is an essential part of the flight control system. With the continuous improvement of MEMS technology, MEMS gyroscope is more and more widely used in UAVS.

ERICCO's self-developed dual-axis MEMS gyroscope ER-2MG-16 escorts the stable flight of UAVS because it has the following advantages:

How Can Dual Axis Mems Gyro Make Uav Achieve More Stable Flight

Thin design

This dual-axis MEMS gyroscope has a volume of 47×44×14mm and an ultra-thin design with a thickness of only 14mm and a weight of 40g. It is very thin and light and can be easily integrated into a drone.

Attitude control

The two-axis MEMS gyroscope measures the UAV's attitude Angle in real time, including roll, pitch, and provides accurate Angle data to the flight control system. These data are the basis for controlling the flight actions of the UAV, and the flight control system adjusts the flight attitude of the UAV in real time according to these data to ensure that the UAV can perform various flight actions stably, such as stable flight, rolling and so on.

Steady flight

The MEMS gyroscope can monitor the attitude change of the UAV in real time and maintain the stable flight of the UAV by adjusting the output signal of the flight control system.

During flight, the UAV may be affected by external factors such as wind and mechanical vibration, resulting in attitude deviation. The gyroscope can quickly sense these deviations and send an adjustment signal to the flight control system, allowing the drone to quickly return to its intended flight attitude. This is essential for accurate aerial photography, precision flight tasks and safe flight operations of UAVs.

Navigation and positioning

The two-axis MEMS gyroscope can also provide accurate directional data to help the drone achieve accurate navigation and positioning. By fusing data with other sensors, such as accelerometers, magnetometers, and GPS modules, the gyroscope is able to provide highly accurate positioning information. In the absence of GPS signal or weak GPS signal environment, the gyroscope angular speed information can be used to calculate the relative position and heading of the UAV, so as to achieve autonomous navigation function. This allows the drone to maintain accurate positioning and navigation capabilities in a variety of environments.
