"Aircraft Horizon provides pitch and roll information, based upon the
orientation of your phone depicted as a typical aircraft artificial
horizon."

Obviously not gyro-based, just the internal accelerometer. That's a
seriously fatal flaw.

All this talk reminded me about this thread, I use a rooted Nook just like

I don't think that BA3 synthetic vision is using an inertial navigation
system:

"Levil Technology sells a small AHRS that provides attitude information for
our iPad synthetic vision systems. The uncertified version sells for $795.
