    Probably easier with a absolute imu that is already Arduino compatible thou. (if your going to do it this way)

    Of course your going to need to edit the SMC3 Arduino sketch if you do it this way. So be prepared for that. Where if you use pot's, it will work with no changes. So ifs kind of a hardware change with the pot's and a software change with the IMU.

    Many thanks for your helps.
    I think I prefer software modifications over hardware ones .
    I might put this project on hold for now, as I may have found a way to get a replacement main board, but it’s not certain yet.
    I’ll keep you updated.
