The AA Enhanced Hover Hold (EHH) STC adds a GPS-based velocity sensor and second radar altimeter to provide the AFCS with additional modes and improved hover hold performance. With EHH STC installed, the 412EPI/EPX provides mark-on-target (MOT), automated approach and return to hover, hover hold with commanded velocity, and automated climb and departure from hover. The velocity sensor supports hover cues on the PFD and on FLIR® video overlays.
The Enhanced Hover Hold Kit contains:
- Second Radar Altimeter
- Ground Velocity Sensor
- Flight Director Mode Select (FDMS) Panels
- 5-position cyclic beep switch
- Radar Altimeter Annunciators
