Has anyone tried this in an airplane to see how well it maintains its position under about 3 Gs?

in the car ,out the window, the wind made it move at 70 mph it also bumps around on boat at 15 mph ,so I don't think it will fare so well at 3 G's

I have it in my RV and it seems very stable. Haven't had any problems as yet.

the accuracy is good so far no problems. I like that fact it can put about 10 pounds on it and again measure grams

At the lower speeds, I think it would work fine. Once you're going fast enough to get turbulence and air pockets under the head, it loses the depth reading. It seems to do that around 5kts, but that's a rough guess on speed.

I can only state that it gives very accurate readings right where you are holding it. For down range - I would think at least the wind could vary.

I haven't used it on a plane as of yet. However, I don't see it being a problem. I will be taking mine on my trip in September.

Make sure the flight controller is free of vibration, and the wires are secure because vibration can travel up them. If problem continues verify radio and receiver with a range check. Maybe back off the gains a little or place a ferrite ring on the inputs of the gyro. All fails chuck it get a Openpilot cc3d 10-15 bucks Ebay

Not sure how they compare but I am very happy with them while using in an airplane.

That's hard to answer. If you are using it a plane, the range will be further than you can see it. Can't really tell you the distance in feet.

We did...once...my grandson had been pulling on the remote antenna wire...had to PUSH IT BACK DOWN in the unit!... it worked! Also, he's so rough with it that somehow he got the back wheel off track like a blown out tire!... the plane wobbled and wouldn't back up or run fast on the rug (after only two days of play!)...sooooo...ONCE AGAIN...his SugaMama became Mechanic Extraordinaure and put the tire back on the wheel and all is happy and rolling with the little guy! Good luck!

Yes!! Just not sure how or where to set one up without effecting the flight characteristics.

Probably. Tape the included reflector tape on it and take the measurement.I wouldn't go near a real aircraft propeller spinning, but a model airplane would be ok.

Not really, just a tiny bit. Like if you were to just stretch and go back it's got a little tilt. I haven't tried testing it because I don't want to fall on my ass or break it lmao!

not necessarily peak weight but when it stabilizes. I checked it with items of known weight and it was very accurate.

Yeah, it works well. I have used it for overhead, vertical, and horizontal. So far the only complaint I have is the sensitivity settings. It almost works too fast.

When I used mine, it was accurate in any object above 3 ounces, as I didn't really need to weigh anything that was less than 3 ounces. I didn't have any issues with accuracy, my only issue was with it dying after a period of time with very light use.

Probably even in/on an ultra light. It's pretty small. Or do you mean can you put it into checked baggage on commercial air? I would imagine so, since there is nothing pressurized about it.Happy flying!J
