Anyone know of a place to find an inexpensive yaw rate sensor? Thinking about maybe picking out a sensor from a Stabilitrac Cadillac in a salvage yard (new price is over $200, hopefully salvage yard wouldn't even know price and sensor would've survived crash) but it would be even nicer to find a distributor that had one on an eval board for only 300% markup over the expected quantity price of $10-20.
Mouser has 3 axis accelerometers for cheap and I've thought about using two of them as a crude yaw sensor (via the difference in lateral acceleration of the front and rear of the vehicle) but this just seems very error prone in comparison to a self contained package.
Any ideas?
