I imagine that it could also be attached to the throttle to trim the car in flight, so tilting the car up and down should make the throttle servo move as well.

Whether gyros are fitted or not, the qualifying order will be unchanged. However, we will quickly get back to the programming with a lap top that we had with BL speedos before so many classes went 'blinky'. Good to see EFRA sorting it out quickly before software wins over driver skill.
Does it have an altimeter then so it knows its pitching in the air and not say going up a ramp of a jump?
