what do you think about having gyro on the canards, it will be difficult to get it on all rudders, without a flight controller?

PS. What do you mean by "all rudders"? The Gripen has only 1 rudder. And even if you are talking about gyro compensation for when you add TV nozzles, the rudder component of the TV nozzles is typically "Y'd" to the main vertical rudder, which means it's still ONE rudder.

Exactly, we call it heightrudder, skewedrudder and siderudder, if you translate. 👍😀
On a plane like this Gripen, there is no need to gyro control the canards.

Originally posted by xviper View PostI see. In any case, if you use a gyro, it's only necessarily to control the elevons on this plane. The actually vertical rudder is a bonus and can easily be connected to the rudder channel of the gyro. Even the cheapest, simplest gyro like the HobbyEagle A3-L and be used and set for "elevon" and it'll do the mixing for you. I've used it on a Mirage (elevon plane) and also something similar on an Opterra wing.

But definitely a bonus to get rudder and canards stabilized as well.
Overall not that difficult, just a matter of choosing a sensible gyro system with sufficient number of channels.Freewing A-10 turbine conversion: http://fb.me/FreewingA10TurbineConversion

Finally hit the preorder button and hopefully its here around halloween. I had sold off all my older stuff, su35, avanti, the big eflite cessna 150, and f86 thinking that is was going to make some room in my workshop. Ha! I ended up replacing those spot with a freewing f14, the new mig29, and with the convincing of my wife for me to just get the gripen, that now too.🥳 Thanks motion for secretly calling my wife and talking about the importance of having a hanger full of awesome planes.
