I have been struggling with above couple of days with no success. I thought this is impossible without gyros but it seems it is possible with simple controls. I am not so sure yet but may be I don't see something obvious. I cant find any articles in net with such control mechanisms that can steer a spinning body (like a rocket or in this case Xzylo) without a gyro or complex electronics. How do you get directional reference when whole vehicle is spinning??? Anybody have any ideas? Thanks for your help. :confused:
