Aeronautical & Aerospace Engineering : Avionics - Quiz(MCQ)
Why is the gyro and accelerometers shock mounted to the body?
A)
Reduce drift error
B)
Impact protection
C)
Limit vibration errors
D)
Prevent voltage surges

Correct Answer :   Limit vibration errors


Explanation : The gyros and accelerometers are rigidly mounted on a block with temperature sensors. The block is usually shock mounted to the vehicle to control the bandwidth of the motion sensed at the instruments. Shock mounting limits vibration rectification errors within the errors themselves.
