Alan,
does the Futaba 351 do dual axis? I understand it will run dual servos but only on one axis, correct?

Todd i mistaken the 351 for the 352 gyro.

The 351 controls two servos on one axis, sorry Sean my bad[]

I wouldn't think the dual axis gyro would work with an elevon. Each axis needs its own servo. I have on nib, maybe I should go read the manual.

I'm pretty sure it's been done, I tucked it away when I read about it, thus this thread. I have to agree though, it does sound far fetched. I did call Microflight.com today and they said they do it all the time. But their version is min. $2k. Man, I really want one, but I have no way to justify 2k for tinkering with a novelty.

According to the manual, it has the elevon function built into the gyro. You actually turn off the radio mix, the gyro performs the mixing.

Testing this on a military prototype, I'll let you know how things go...
