Hi Jose

I like the nice smooth response.

Can you tell us a little about the datarate and data structure that is transmitted over the xbee?

Cheers

Presumably the artificial horizon roll is backwards because Dean did it that way. But if you're going to roll backwards, you should also pitch backwards, which you're not doing.

Good eye, Jack. I kept looking at that video since I first saw it last night and could not figure out why it looked strange. As soon as I saw your post, it hit me. The wings stay parallel with the horizon when the plane banks! Operationally, it would probably be catastrophic, but fortunately the fix is simple. And the overall project is very well done.

Hi Jack and Eric, it is true!
