Low cost/DIY AI

Given the (more or less) recent appearance of low-cost R/C helicopters and quadcopters, I assume there must be cheap pseudo-gyroscope electronic sensors available. Wouldn't it be feasible to apply these in a low-cost AI? Such a device could obviously only be used in non-certified planes - but such is mine.

NB perhaps this is not the right place to discuss this kind of idea - I'll be glad to learn of better. I used to be on nttp://rec.aviation.homebuilt but have been shut off from usenet by my internet provider, and never managed to find an equivalent forum.
