Airbus EC-145e Avionics Platform
Improving Capabilities Of The EC-145e
Originally launched as a standard VFR platform, Moog developed an IFR Platform incorporating the latest Genesys Rotorcraft Autopilot/EFIS technology for the Airbus EC145e. Moog supported an STC for the aircraft with the modernized Genesys Avionics Suite, including an IFR-certified, 3-Axis Autopilot, and the IDU-450 EFIS smart display.

The Genesys Avionics Suite
The Genesys Avionics Suite designed for the Airbus EC-145e features four IDU-450 displays in a dual-sided PFD/MFD format, dual redundant ADAHRS, Dual GPS/FMS, and IFR-certified GRC Autopilot & Stability Augmentation System (SAS).
The comprehensive, Level A certified IDU-450 weighs only 4.5 lbs. (2 kg) while offering high-resolution LCD glass, 3D Synthetic Vision, Highway-In-The-Sky (HITS), Enhanced HTAWS, Integrated FMS, Hover Vector and more. The avionics suite features the Genesys GRC Rotorcraft Autopilot, allowing operators to fly IFR in single or dual-pilot operations. Due to the Genesys lightweight avionics suite, operators are able to utilize increased payloads and equipment flexibility on each EC-145e.
