Hi - I was just wondering if anyone has had any experiance using gas or glow power with the ardupilot? I was wondering how it would work with the extra vibration etc......Thanks everyone!

Our team is interested in ArduPilot IMU. I am wondering if the IMU will work in conjunction with the thermopile sensors? Is this the arrangement?
