Hello!
I have build a 2 axis flight stabilizer (Pitch and Roll) with Arduino Pro Mini and MPU-6050. However I am not certain which approach is most effective.
As of right now I am just using the gyros to counteract any unwanted roll or pitch movement, while forwarding the input from the RC receiver to the servos.
But now Ive thought of another way, calculating the current pitch and roll from the MPU with a complementary filter and have the stabilizer strive to keep the plane level.
So my question is, which of these would be most appropriate to use in this application? Are there specific advantages/drawbacks with the two different approaches?
Thanks, Kalveo.
