Launch and Recovery from boat?

I have a 3DR DIY quad with a Pixhawk and I was wondering if I would be able to launch and recovery it from the back of a boat.  In particular would the system properly initialize the gyros on a moving boat?

    Starting with 3.3, calibration on a moving surface will be easier. As far as the gimbal goes, it depends on the make. The 3DR Solo gimbal will calibrate on a boat, but not all will

  • I have launched and recoverd from a small boat, apm 2.5 3.1.5 copter was fine but gimbal was very hard to get going almost gave up then it came alive
