    Measuring roll angle using accelerometer

    yes..for my sensor the Y axis is positive forwards, through nose of aircraft and X axis is perpendicular to Y axis. I assume when the aircraft is turning there are 2 forces acting in X and Y direction that's why I'm getting a reading of acceleration in the axis of roll (Y axis, for my case) as...

    Measuring roll angle using accelerometer

    I mount it horizontally..meaning to say it's lying on a surface and in line with the aircraft fuselage. This is what I'm referring to: **broken link removed** The output voltage from the X axis accelerometer relates to the tilt angle which in my case is the roll angle. Centripetal force...

    Measuring roll angle using accelerometer

    I'm using one axis of accelerometer to measure roll angle of a RC plane. But, it's reading the acceleration at the same time. Anyone can help me filtering this out or is there any algorithm to solve this? I'm programming PIC microcontroller using PicBasic Pro. I know 2-axis accelerometer would...

    Measuring roll angle using 2 ultrasonic sensors

    g-sensor u mean accelerometer? i'm using accelerometer as well, only one axis is used...the ultrasonic is like a redundant measurement besides, i'm having problem with the accelerometer signal because of vibration and noise. i used filtering and it smooths the signal a bit but still improvement...

    Measuring roll angle using 2 ultrasonic sensors

    I have to mention this earlier: it's for measuring roll angle during landing so it's near to the ground. The ultrasonic sensor is attached at both the wing tip. During landing, the ultrasonic sensors measure the distance of the wing tip from the ground. The difference of the distance from the...

    Measuring roll angle using 2 ultrasonic sensors

    Hi...I'm still new here. I'm doing project on an airplane and I want to measure roll angle of an RC plane using 2 ultrasonic sensors. Anyone know the algorithm to do so? Btw, I'm using PicBasic Pro language to program into the microcontroller.
