FYI ...

SmartTool Technologies makes an Inclinometer with TTL RS232 or PWM
output.  Cost is $85 quantity 1-10.  I purchased one and intend on
interfacing
it (and another one) with a PIC as a gyrosyncronous servo controlled
stable
platform for a video camera in a RC helicopter app...  I've also got one
of
those electronic compasses sold by Jameco to be used in the same
project.
