This is a question rooting from a stupid idea, the idea being a plane that uses gyroscopes only for all rotation, Pitch, Yaw and Roll. I've been doing all sorts of experimentation with XML but have returned fruitless due to most probably a simple oversight. For some reason, despite the gyroscopes Auto-Orientate being set to disabled, the gyroscope will still orientate itself to an upright position, which when flying can be rather vexing. As I said this can probably be fixed easily as I probably just overlooked a minor detail but any help with finding the minor detail would be appreciated.
Disabling auto orientation just means the gyro effect stabilises according to the gryos local z axis rather than the global z axis. If you put the gro upsidedown with auto off, it will stabilise the craft upsidedown.
@randomusername It's a genius invention... any possibility of an explanation on how it works?
There’s a control system built out there
when the gyro is disabled then the yaw power or any form of rotation doesn't occur. It solves the orientation problem but then the gyros don't actually do anything.
have you disabled the gyro?
