1. FY-41AP Autopilot & OSD System Introduction
FY-41AP Module
FY-41AP is an inertial attitude measurement instrument used for FPV flight on fixed-wing aircrafts and multi-rotors aircrafts. It has an integrated OSD video overlay system that presents critical flight information such as power management, airspeed, altitude, and flight direction via its electronic compass, allowing for a clear visual flight while ensuring key information is within sight.
This manual is for multi-rotor installation & operation.
Flight stabilization is achieved via an integrated 3 axis gyro, 3 axis accelerometer, 3 axis magnetometer and a barometric pressure sensor. This enables the module to accurately measure flight attitude, earth azimuth & relative altitude to achieve:
Attitude Stabilized Mode
Hovering Mode
Auto Return To Launch Mode(RTH)
GPS Module
GPS module– enables the FY-41AP to calculate the flight course & sense the exact location of the aircraft. GPS Data enables the aircraft to utilize Auto Return To Launch Mode (RTH) and Hovering Mode.
OSD System
FY-41AP has integrated OSD hardware with optimizing display interface. Critical flight parameters are displayed like Altitude, Speed, Direction, flying voltage and Amp draw.
Power Manager Module
FY-41AP can connect Power Manager Module which is integrated with Current Sensor module and Voltage-Regulating module. Current Sensor is used to check voltage, Amp draw. The integrated Voltage-Regulating module provides stable +12V to FPV video camera and video transmitter.

2. Function Introduction
Altitude Stabilized Mode
41AP can auto stabilize the aircraft flight altitude in this mode. Keep the pitch and roll stick in center position for 0 °altitude. The pitch and roll stick has an endpoint of 45 ° and has linear control over the flight altitude, with a maximum angular velocity of 150 °/ s. The yaw stick in the center position will lock on to the current course. The yaw stick can linearly control the aircraft‘s rotation rate, with a maximum rotation rate of 135 ° per second. The throttle stick directly controls the aircraft‘s ability to climb and decline; the climbing and declining rate is directly related to the throttle.
Hovering Mode
The GPS Module must be connected to the 41AP with at least 5 GPS satellites detected. In this Mode, yaw control method are the same as in Attitude Stabilized Mode. 41AP can auto control flight altitude. Climbing and descending rate is directly related to the throttle, when the throttle stick is in the center position, 41AP auto locks the altitude, with a maximum means climb rate of 3 m/s, and a minimum means decline rate of 1.5 m/s. The throttle stick linearly controls the aircraft climb and decline rate. Releasing the pitch and roll stick will lock the position when GPS signal is adequate.And non-releasing is stand for the aircraft movement speed in the corresponding axial direction(Maximum 6m/s),not aircraft attitude.
Auto Return To Launch Mode (RTH)
The GPS Module must be connected to the 41AP with at least 5 GPS satellites detected. In this Mode, FY-41P is take over all the control, the RC aileron, elevator, throttle and rudder stick is no control function anymore. When you switch into RTH mode,FY-41AP (FY-41AP has 20m altitude protection limit, if the switch point altitude below 20m,FY-41AP will automatic climb to 50m) will first automatic adjust the aircraft heading to the home point and automatically fly the aircraft back to the take-off point, while maintaining altitude. Upon reaching the launch area, the unit will automatically landing and closed the engine.
Camera Gimbal Stabilization
41AP multi-rotor firmware, when used to control Quadcopter and Hexrcopter, can
simultaneously control two axis Camera Gimbal Stabilization.
Attention:
(1)You must use 400Hz high-speed servos for Camera Gimbal, if you use normal servos for a long time, will cause the Camera Gimbal servos overheat.
(2)If you use FY-41AP to control Octocopter aircraft,S7 and S8 ports will not output Camera Gimbal control signal any more.

OSD Video Overlay Display Function
First Person View (FPV): FY-41AP has an integrated OSD video overlay system, so you do not need to connect an external video overlay module. The flight data overlays to video output and through the video transmission system to send back the signal, letting you enjoy the fun of FPV. And operating FPV is even easier with the functions of automatic balance, Hovering, and Auto Return To Launch.

4. FY-41AP Connection Summary
The following pictures display the rotation direction and serial number of each motor. Each ESC should be connected to the FY-41AP S1 - S8 interface. Pay attention once you‘ve chosen the control type, as the corresponding position motor rotate direction has to be completely the same as in the picture. (If the motor rotate direction is not correct then exchange any two of the three connection wires between ESC and motor to change the motor rotate direction.)
