Instrumental, also known as avionics.

I think it appears on the repair menu as avionics.

But... what exactly do they do?

They show your speed, altitude etc. Probably the least important part to repair.

But, if it shows any color other than green in the top right corner, your helicopter will leak fuel. This goes for every part on the heli. This can be particularly problematic if you like to park your heli far off the map so noone can find you...an emtpy chopper makes for a long walk back.

Damage to instruments makes the HUD (The in-helmet one) start flickering. (At least in the ARMA games. Not sure if any vehicles with the inhelmet hud exist in dayZ)
