RE: comparing gyros
I'd probably second the lt2100 if you don't want to go for the gy401. The benifit the g90 has over the gy240 is that it has remote gyro gain, but I don't think the axe has 6 channels, so I don't know if you would use that anyways.
The gy240 is probably over all a bit better quality than the g90, but I would still go with the lt2100. Most reviews I've read of it compare it pretty equally to the gy401 on electric models, and you can get it for about $100 shipped, and it only weighs like 11g I think
