Overview
The Futaba GYD560 is an advanced counter-steer gyro system engineered specifically for 1/10 scale RC drift cars. Building upon the legendary GYD550, this upgraded gyro features UR (Ultra Response) mode compatibility for even faster steering response when paired with Futaba's F-4G high-speed system. Whether you're drifting on slick surfaces, carpet, or dedicated drift tracks, the GYD560 delivers smooth, predictable counter-steer control.
Featuring AVCS (Angular Vector Control System) technology, the GYD560 provides exceptional stability while maintaining the natural feel that experienced drifters demand. The wireless parameter adjustment capability via compatible Futaba transmitters (T10PX, T6PV) eliminates the need for manual adjustments, allowing you to fine-tune gyro settings trackside without touching the car.
