Re: Has anyone gotten useful data from the accelerometer?

the sensor connects to your analog to digital converters, and the output is an integer. What are the ADCs on the RC this year, 10 bits (I think)? that would give you a reading from 0 to 1024, with the 'zero point' around 512.

there is no need to convert that to a real number. If you are calculating tilt with the accelerometers that might be a different story.
