Will there be an update when we can calibrate the sensors when we have the heli on the bench in Absolute Vertical Spirit Level?

Hey mate, it looks we are on the very same topic... I am interested in that, I opened a thread in HF about it and everybody started saying that that's how it should work... http://www.helifreak.com/showthread.php?t=707818

So I opened this here. Let's see:

During development few years ago there were parameters to set leveled position, but it does not work in all cases correctly. Mostly this means to use accelerometers to higher extent.
Using accelerometers is possible only on the helicopters with very low amount of vibrations so even if you will level it, it is technically impossible to set it.
Thus we have developed better solution where any position calibration is not needed.

If you think that it does not work correctly, then we are very sure that there is another problem that should be fixed (configuration, mounting).

It is very possible that in near future there will be possibility to start helicopter in any position and it will know always correct horizont.

Yay! That is all that we ask. Can't wait...
