Description
BDG-26 Variant 2 damping gyroscope block
BDG-26 Variant 2 is an aircraft damping gyroscope block used to measure angular velocity of an aircraft or helicopter around one of its coordinate axes. Depending on installation, the unit can operate in roll, heading / yaw or pitch channels. It converts angular motion of the aircraft body into proportional electrical signals that are transmitted to the automatic flight-control system, autopilot or stabilization equipment.

Function of the BDG-26 angular-rate block
The main function of BDG-26 Variant 2 is to provide angular-rate feedback for flight-control damping. When the aircraft begins to rotate around the measured axis, the gyroscopic sensing element detects this motion and forms an electrical signal proportional to angular velocity. The automatic control system uses this signal to reduce oscillations and improve dynamic stability. The unit is not a cockpit indicator; it is a sensor block inside the aircraft control loop.
BDG-26 Variant 2 internal construction
BDG-26 Variant 2 is built around the DUSU-2 unified angular-rate sensor. The block may also include signal-conditioning elements, interference filtering circuits and gyro motor operation monitoring, depending on the configuration. The unit forms a feedback signal for stabilization channels and can be checked on specialized ground equipment. The source context mentions PP-25 as a checking panel used for technical inspection of BDG-type blocks.
Use in automatic control systems
BDG-26 Variant 2 is installed in aircraft automatic control systems, autopilots, stability augmentation systems and flight-navigation complexes. It is used in systems of manual-assisted and automatic control where angular-rate information is required for damping. Since each channel depends on physical orientation, the block must be installed according to the assigned aircraft axis and system documentation.
Installation of BDG-26 Variant 2
The unit is mounted on a rigid base or frame inside an avionics compartment, technical bay or automatic-control equipment area. According to the source context, the block is fixed by four screws. Correct alignment with the aircraft construction axes is important because the measured axis is defined by the installation position. Vibration resistance and operation over a wide temperature range allow the unit to work in typical aircraft onboard conditions.
Ordering and replacement of BDG-26 Variant 2
When ordering BDG-26 Variant 2, the buyer should specify the exact variant, aircraft type, measured channel and automatic control system where the unit will be installed. It is also important to confirm required condition, passport availability, repair certificate, storage records and test status. For maintenance or bench checking, wiring data, connector pinout, permissible error limits and PP-25 test procedure may be required.
