Way way back in early aughts, as a pure research project, I built an RC servo wing-leveler for my RV-3. It used a small trim tab. The solid state gyros then where very primitive with poor accuracy. It had a bad habit of drifting quickly and ultimately, it was a failure.
Wow have things changed. You can buy a $10 12-dof controller for multi-copters which should clearly keep an aircraft perfectly level. Each axis has separately configurable feedback coefficients which can be set for the mass / roll inertia of a full-scale.
Has anyone experimented with using RC Quad Copter controllers as auto pilot?
Thanks!
