+/- then 00 to 99 percent of deflection, +
meaning deflected upward, ‘XXX’ w/o valid GS.
0-7. 0=Off, 1= roll only, 2=pitch only, 3=
roll+pitch, 4=yaw, 5=roll+yaw, 6=pitch+yaw,
7=pitch+roll+yaw (yaw doesn’t currently exist,
but format supports it). Will read 0 all the time
if no AP is installed.
0-4. 0=Heading, 1=Track, 2=NAV, 3=GPS
Steering. Always reads zero when AP roll not
engaged.
Reserved for future usage. Always reads ‘X’.
Parsers should not read this value.
0. 0=Altitude. Always reads zero when AP pitch
not engaged.
Reserved for future usage. Always reads
‘X’. Parsers should not read this value.
+/- then 00 to 80. Raw force number from
servo, + meaning that a force is being exerted in
the right-wing-downward direction against the
servo. 80 is theoretical maximum before
slipping. Always reads zero when AP roll not
engaged.
+/- then 0000 to 9999. Position of servo output
shaft relative to that at power-on, in steps, +
meaning in the right-wing-downward direction.
800 steps represent a full rotation of the output
shaft. Outputs “XXXXX” when not available.
0 or 1. 0 = No slipping on this servo. 1 = At least
one slip on this servo in the last 3
seconds. Always reads zero when AP roll not
engaged.
+/- then 00 to 80. Raw force number from
servo, + meaning that a force is being exerted in
the nose-upward direction against the servo. 80
is theoretical maximum before slipping. Always
reads zero when AP pitch not engaged.
AP Pitch Position
(steps)
+/- then 0000 to 9999. Position of servo output
shaft relative to that at power-on, in steps, +
meaning in the nose-upward direction. 800
steps represent a full rotation of the output
shaft. Outputs “XXXXX” when not available.
