Thank you Christophe,
Will be to incorporate on a 20Kg gas engine aircraft and someone said to
use the MTi-g. So, maybe I will try cheaper solutions first. Have to do
some tests with the motor running because of vibration.
The old Booz IMU will be better that Aspirin IMU or Aspirin is the best
solution out there for the paparazzy autopilots at a good price?
Cheers
