4.8 G-force page
This page utilizes the Era’s internal inertial platform for showing the current, maximum and
minimal G-loading during a flight, both numerically and graphically. The page also shows the
IAS colour arc, in the same manner as depicted on the Thermal assistant page. Your current
value is shown graphically with a red dot.
Figure 50. G-force page overview
Pressing the bottom push-rotary knob will open the ’G-force options’ sub-page, where you can
reset the Min. and Max. values to zero.
Rotating the top push-rotary knob will change the scale of the G-force circles.
NOTE
1 G corresponds to the average acceleration of the Earth’s gravity field on it’s
surface, or 9, 81m/s
2
.
NOTE
It is important to note, that the Era shows accelerations in the Y-Z plane, as
depicted by Fig. 51., meaning no longitudinal accelerations are shown. If the plane
is experiencing an acceleration of 1 G in the X axis the Era will show 0 G.
