Ki 256 Installation Manual !exclusive!

The KI 256 is an electrically driven, gyro-stabilized horizon indicator that provides attitude information and, when connected to a flight computer, displays steering commands (command bars). Electrically driven (usually 14V or 28V DC). Role: Attitude Indicator + Flight Director (FD) Indicator.

Instrument panels are rarely perfectly vertical. BendixKing manufactures the KI 256 with specific chassis tilts—most commonly or 8-degree variants. Installing a 0-degree unit into an 8-degree tilted panel introduces an uncorrectable static pitch error to the autopilot, leading to degraded altitude performance. Always check the part number suffix against the aircraft's physical panel angle before mounting. Cooling and Environmental Requirements ki 256 installation manual
