Location of autopilot board inside a model
Autopilot has an integrated inertial measurement unit (IMU), which allows
determining the attitude of the autopilot board. By using this information the
autopilot can maintain the level flight of the model.
However, in order for this information to be correct about model's attitude
about the orientation of autopilot board in respect to the model must be
correct. The autopilot board should be mounted in such way that at the stable
level flight of the model, the autopilot board is horizontal and is facing the
direction of flight.
