Foil Control System
AssemblyClosed-loop autopilot that reads ride height and motion, then drives the flap actuators to hold a steady cruising altitude in waves. A full specification article for this item is being written. Meanwhile its bill of materials and connections are below.
Foil Control System parts and their functions
8 top-level parts · 120 parts in total · full bill of materials below
| # | Part | Qty | What it does |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Autopilot Controller 5 parts | 1× | Sealed electronic unit running the ride-control loop at 50 Hz and commanding all four flap actuators. |
| 2 | Height Sensor | 2× | forward and aft |
| 3 | Flap Actuator | 4× | Electro-hydraulic actuator deflecting one foil flap up to 15 degrees in under 100 ms. |
| 4 | Gyro Unit | 1× | Three-axis MEMS gyroscope and accelerometer pack reporting pitch, roll and heave to the controller. |
| 5 | Servo Motor 4 parts | 4× | Brushless motor with an integrated encoder or resolver, driven in closed loop to hold commanded position, speed, or torque precisely. |
| 6 | Pressure Sensor | 2× | Transduces fluid or gas pressure into an electrical signal. |
| 7 | Control Harness | 1× | Shielded cable loom linking sensors, actuators and the autopilot controller. |
| 8 | Connector | 6× | Mating plug-and-socket pair that joins two lengths of wiring or a cable to a board so a circuit can be assembled, serviced, and separated without soldering. |
