Re: [Paparazzi-devel] ArduIMU on Wiki

Hi Martin,

With your help I have a Tiny2.11 with an ArduIMU connected to the I2C port. I 
followed the Wiki and am using your airframe suggested with the exception that 
I also commented the ADC IR values and set the modem to transparent. 

Holding the IMU with the arrows on the IMU for X,Y,Z I see pitch in the PFD is 
shown correctly. However the roll is reversed. If this was an airframe with IR 
I would change the sign for: LATERAL_CORRECTION in the INFRARED section. As 
expected there is no INFRARED section. I sure could use a LATERAL_CORRECTION 
value to modify though :) 

Is there a way I do not see to reverse the roll? Before doing this I did upload 
the firmware in SVN for the arduIMU (as per the Wiki).

BTW, very cool to see IMU data and the PFD artificial horizon responding to the 
IMU movements. Thank you for all your help so far. I think I am close.
