I know the rules say gyros that automatically adjust for pitch and yaw are illegal. I also believe any other device that tells the pilot the orientation of the plane so that the pilot can manually adjust is also not in the spirit of the sport.</div><div class="yiv1636996161MsoNormal"> </div><div class="yiv1636996161MsoNormal">I got some interesting responses.</div><div class="yiv1636996161MsoNormal"> </div><div class="yiv1636996161MsoNormal">In my opinion this type of feedback has been technically feasible for many years. It may not have been through direct communication between the receiver and the transmitter but it was certainly doable through a
tone in an ear piece or similar feedback mechanism. I’m surprised the rules never anticipated this. Why did we have to wait for telemetry capable radios?</div><div class="yiv1636996161MsoNormal"> </div><div class="yiv1636996161MsoNormal"> </div></div> <br>
