The Futaba GYD550 Drift Car Gyro is a premium counter‑steer gyro system engineered for 1/10 scale RC drift cars. It uses advanced MEMS gyro sensing and AVCS (Active Angular Velocity Control System) technology to help stabilize your vehicle, smooth out slides, and improve drift control. This unit supports wireless tuning when used with compatible Futaba transmitters and receivers, allowing real‑time adjustments from the driver’s stand. It is compact, lightweight, and built to withstand the demands of competitive and recreational drifting.
