I was watching a History channel documentary on Nazi technology, and they talked about the V1 flying bomb being the first weapon to use INS based on gyroscopes, and how amazingly accurate they were for something of their time being able to fly to Britain from Germany and hit cities with some decent accuracy.
Anyway, with todays MEMS products, would it be possible to make an INS for an RC helicopter, RC airplane, or model rocket (I imagine that would be most difficult)? I know that GPS would be a much more modern and accurate method for accomplishing the same thing, but I have something of an interest in just doing things 'the old way' for personal edification.
Any recommendations on where to start? I won't be loading these with warheads or anything, though I might try and target a friend's farm or something to test my accuracy.
