KR> Questions on avionics/ gyros and lil-bitty 'altimeters'

Very inexpensive model/toy RC helicopters are referencing an on-board "gyro chip" to assist in stability. Does anyone have ANY info on using these chips to cobble-up a simple Turn-and-bank? Other question: how accurate are these 'altimeters' installed in super-duper wrist-watches?
