Gyro Vs. Accelerometer

Other Hardware Sensors
1

I build my quadcopter from scratch....Used Arduino Mega on board and Uno for RC with HMTR for transmission.

Now, during flight, I got to realize that to maintain stability, IMU sensors such as gyrosensor and accelormeter are the most...

So, if have to choose between these two sensors, which one is the most to control its stability to hover, and how it can be interfaced!

Need fast and better suggestions as being a dummy...

Thanks, all

You need both..
