Hi,I would like to use ArduPilot first in a boat and then in a seaplane.X,Y,Z horizon sensor might not works properly with the boat and with the plane as well because the lake is between hill. Moreover I would like to protect all the sensor in the body and I already have Ardupilot Sensors Board (main and daughter).So I have two questions:-Is it possible to add/adjust in Ardupilot code a part of ArduIMU code, to compute pitch, roll and yaw from analog sensors (via vector and DCM calculation) instead of X,Y,Z Horizon sensor?- In reading others threads and blogs I wonder if Ardupilot (not the mega) is enough beefier to compute Euler angle and fly the plane?Thanks you in advance for your help.Thibaut

We will be releasing a "Thermopile Replacement" verison of ArduIMU that does not require any code change to use the regular ArduPilot board. Early next year...
ArduPilot as it is does not have enough spare processing power to handle both the autupilot and IMU calculations itself.
