Swashplate Linear Actuator Control With Servo Cylinders

In the photo below are Ultra Motion’s A2 Servo Cylinders being shown off in a swashplate control application for a twin-rotor UAV helicopter. The A2 Servo Cylinder’s high dynamic performance, reliable operation in harsh conditions, and Phase Index® absolute position feedback makes it the perfect solution for unmanned vehicle control applications. A variety of control interfaces including CAN 2.0B, RS-422 serial and RC-PWM greatly simplifies interfacing the Servo Cylinder with COTS autopilots or custom avionics.
